I hate the subway in Toronto.

You too huh? That was some interesting commute this AM. 

like 4 fires in three weeks! Or jumpers, or whatever, all I know is that I'm tired of it.

[The Brain]

Jumpers? Do you mean sweaters?

I guess they sweat a bit before the train hits them

Somebody just got hit by the train in front of me, waiting for the police to allow traffic again. At least I get overtime.

I don't think we have a thread on it - but freaky with that professor at UCLA being shot and killed in his office in that murder-suicide yesterday.

Nothing really that freaky about it.  So many opportunities over the course of the academic calendar to start shooting.

I was wondering about that when I posted the link, it was the best image of that particular model I could find on the web, unfortunately the photos I took of it at the time are lost because the camera sd card completely died (first times thats ever happened to me).

Woo! I worked from home today as I was waiting for some dining chairs to be shipped to me. Got a frantic call from parcel company this morning that they didn't have my actual address - just had my post code listed twice on packaging label. Got them the right address but they told me they didn't know if driver would get correct address in time - meanwhile they had automatically sent me a delivery window for this afternoon.  Surprise, surprise - just now the parcel status was updated to refused.

In that his last day of school was yesterday and he was already telling me last night he was bored.  Keeping him entertained and getting my work done is going to be a challenge.  I have him enrolled in three summer camps and am looking for more
