Wow, that's strange to hear about Kensington; I must of been up there for about an hour on Thursday.

I always laugh when I see girls lined up for a club wearing a skirt in the dead of winter

We live in such a vain culture where people are so concerned over trivialities (their attire). The NBA All Star Skills Competition, last night, was a perfect example of this. Last summer when my brother and I were heading home from the Leslie Street Spit we noticed some club floozies (dressed in really short skirts and high heels) struggling to walk along the overgrown, weed-ridden boulevard. It was a perfect example of going somewhere unprepared. They were completely out of their element (probably the type that has never set foot in a forest in their entire lives).

Must depend on who's working security then.

It's sad but it just goes to show where their priorities are.

Any weather is tolerable as long as one dresses appropriately. I see so many people complaining about cold weather, yet they dress like it's the beginning of fall. A down jacket, gloves, hat, scarf and long underwear can go a long way. Utility over fashion.

Amen, brother. Sad to say I learned this lesson only near the end of high school, when I just stopped being insecure about dressing like an inflated marshmallow.

Part of me laughs, another part...doesn't.

Taken yesterday in Vineland, about 55km away, near Balls Falls:

And for reference's sake, here's the surrounding area without me zooming in:

Well at least the Skydome is preserved in a skyline view from some vantage point.

Interesting that from here Humber Bay Shores blends into the background. I wonder how Eu de Soleil will change that.

Damn--whatchamacallit is just shy of filling in that gap between Scotia and whatchamacallit. Too bad it wasn't another 20 stories....

I took a flight around in a small plane last weekend, didn't get a chance to post the pictures until now.

Sorry about the quality, it was through a window and I was trying not to vomit (because I was facing backwards).

I have the higher quality ones, I just shrunk these down (by a lot) to post here.
