Sounds like a Jeopardy question, or is that an answer?

On our way to Rona today to buy paint and stuff we were passing Canadian Tire on Coventry Rd. Just as I turned off of the Vanier Parkway I saw thick black smoke pouring over the Lynx baseball field. Something in the Canadian Tire garage had caught serious fire. It was just pouring out what looked like a hole in the roof. There were some people in the garage entrance and while they looked concerned, they didn’t seem to panic. So I guess things looked worse then they actually were.

And on Saturday, I was driving down Walkley road when the bus that was one car ahead of me had an explosion in it’s engine. There was this big puff of dirt out of the bottom and th back engine cover sorta lifted up a little bit and then the bus slowed to a stop. I, of course, suspected Terrorist Attack and held my breath till I was clear of the area. Which, with the traffic backup probably wasn’t the best idea as I almost passed out behind the wheel. I’m just going to have to keep a gas mask in the car at all times.

Super cool tattoo. Made from UV-reactive ink so it only shows up under a blacklight.

The only problem is that besides the x-ray look, I can’t think of another tattoo style that wouldn’t benefit a stripper. So you can see that I’m strongly interested in seeing this technology developed further.

More pictures.

From PersonalDNA.com, my “true self” is a Animated Thinker.

Whatever the hell that is suppose to be.

To make it cool and hip they add in these little graphics to look pretty.

Apparently I have no “agency” so I guess I believe in fate. But I also have little confidence and I’m a pessimist so I guess I only believe in bad fates. You can get my unique breakdown here.

For those of you who care, you can “Psych you / Psych Me“.

The big problem is that none of the answers were right for me in many cases… I’m a little too variable.

Dad called today to tell me about a call he had recieved.

Someone was looking for him over a policy my grandfather had taken out at least 40 years ago. They were never informed of his passing and someone who knew him at the company stumbled across the paperwork. It’s a little over $2000 and will be split between me and my cousin Chris. (Nathan’s only grandsons.)

I’m not sure what to do with the money. Tho I’m under strict orders from Mom not to spend it on camera gear.

The last time I inherrieted money like this I bought my first real camera. The Canon G3. And that pretty much changed my life. I’d like to use this money in sort of the same way. I’d like to get something that I’ll have for a long time. Or at least to open up new life-long interests. It’s silly to say it’s to remember Poppy, but it kinda is.

But we do need a couch.

I’ve got some time to think it over, it’ll be at the very least a few weeks before the paperwork gets done.

Where do all the hip cats hang out on a Friday night???

Did you say Sears Home???

I sure hope not!

But that’s where I spent my wild and crazy Friday night. We bought all of our appliances. Over $4000 taxes included. (CDN, $3.95 US) Harper, where the hell is that GST reduction you were talking about?? I could have actually used that.

They’re not exactly cream of the crop, but we didn’t go ghetto with them. I think we should be pretty happy with them. We tried to make sure that we could get the best EnergyStar numbers that we could afford. It might not mean that much right now, but over the lifetime of the products it could save us a bit of money… more so if energy prices rise as well. Tho I really hope they don’t.

God… I’m almost sounding like an adult or something. And we all know that that hasn’t happened yet.

One week till we sign the last of the papers.

10 days till we get the keys.

Less then a month till we move in.
