As you see I have changed my site to a “blog” type format. It was getting to be a pain to archive the humour and most of the html was done “by hand”. With movable type I can automate some of this, especially the archiving. Anyway, enjoy!

In a typically Canadian fashion I will start commenting on the weather. Today it reached 12°C. Quite pleasant when I went to Zellers at lunchtime to get my cheap No. 2 coffee filters. We need a good rain to wash the grit and salt off the roads and sidewalks so I can commute by inline skates again.

Officially today I have reached the quarter century mark with my employer which started as Ontario Hydro, then Ontario Power Generation and now, Kinectrics. Am I that old? Nah. My wife gave me a gift certificate to Rona (was Revy, was Lansing) to buy myself a "lopper" for cutting up to 3cm thick branches. Every couple of years I need to trim back the privet hedge by the driveway. At least this year we haven't had any snow to speak of (the weather again!) so the 1.2m hedge doesn't present a snow clearing problem.
