An Earful

This one is an oldie but a goodie.

I was house-sitting for my aunt awhile ago and Braemar and I were looking for music to play while we shot some pool. We discovered the stereo system and a stack of CDs that we were not interested in.

Here's what I mean.

These are the titles of the last three discs we found, in order of stackage;

Jazz For When You're Alone,
Songs of the Sea, and
Here's Liberace

Too Creepy

I didn't have a category for this picture but I had to share it because, well, it's so very creepy.


This shot was a result of me playing around with the colour swap feature on my camera.

Halloween

"Your pumpkin fell over."

"What pumpkin?"

"That pumpkin."

"Oh! Thank you! That's my Sponge Pumpkin."

"You have something called a Sponge Pumpkin?"

"I have 6! I also have 2 Sponge Bats!"

Ah Canada


It's funny, the things you come across and realize are quintessentially Canadian. I guess I've just spent enough time with Americans explaining that we don't generally refer to 'beanies' as 'snow caps' north of the 49th parallel.

I was just perusing the North Shore Rescue website which includes a list of ten essential items you should pack if you venture into the wilds. One piece of gear they recommend is a warm hat because so much body heat is lost through the head. Then it says;
"Remember the saying 'If your feet get cold put your toque on'."
I'll bet no ones' mom told 'em that in the States.

Contract Work: Glory & Consequence



I'm unemployed. I've been trapped in a small room for three weeks. I'm not in prison, I'm renovating. I'm going a little bit crazy. I'm beginning to understand what Billy Corgan was evoking when he wailed "I'm still just a rat in a cage!"
