Problem with this timeline: Not sure if serious or not. Can't tell.

This little group of Voyageurs is off... haha, travelling.

I'm off to prove to a disparate group of Albertans that Quebec is real and dead sexy. Or, at a minimum, this specific Quebecois fellow is.

Don't steal my stuff while I'm gone, okay? Thanks!

I found myself on a video game developer's list, mostly because I'm involved on this from the scholastic side (I teach programming).

But I'm a goofus what posts about videbo james and the weird shit I live read.

All this to say that I empathize. Plus cats are nice.

I can say I've played and streamed a bit, and I'm equal parts being hugged by EYE Divine Cybermancy references, bewildered by the game world, and being thrashed by it.

And I'll get back to it later over the next day or two, too.

Well, ho-lee-cow, it has been almost exactly a year and we're finishing up "Journey to the West" this Sunday. That has been a very figurative journey.

I've got something short-ish queued up to follow, "The Nightlands," and then what? I don't know! Maybe you do?

I've managed to bludgeon some buddies into "Jumping Jazz Cats" this eve (7 PM, EST) which promises to be both absolutely macho and absolutely... uhh... I don't even know now, I'm not supposed to know this many words.

I literally drove through a small town named Petrolia just last week, and I startled when I read the caption before looking at the image.

I've been using the same Sony MDR 7506 for the better part of a decade. However, it has wired, which obviously does you no good.

Might suggest something else from the Sony MDR line. They may prove to be spendy, though.

I know I've kind of veered off the rails of what you were bringing up, but the very notion of a car crewing a car tickles my fancy. See also "What the Car" on Steam.

I think you should think about little kitties snoozing in a pile of warm laundry. Even if it's a computerized kitty.

Sunday: Storytime again (we're so close to the end!)
Tuesday - However long it takes: Little Kitty Big City. Sleep on warm laundry, become a budding icthyologist.

I'm not supporting this Wigan Kebab. It's some English thing from Wigan. Take a small pie, and put it in a bun. It's absurd.

Rice as a filler seems like it's cheating, though. It's got a place in a cabbage roll or a burrito.

Just watch out for the popo, because nobody got time for a phonebook party.

That's not even a meat pie, it's a sandwich.

It looks like an acceptable sandwich though.

Here's a wigan kebab.
A wigan kebab: A pie seated in a bun. Because one should get more carbs with a side of carbs.

I know you shouldn't show any, and I shouldn't ask, but I'll just say I'm really curious about it.

It's a bold day if you find a "steak" pie in a pub these days. Short of going to the specialty butcher, and they'll gleefully cater to the Scottish taste (and the weird French-Canadian guy).

I'm a pie snob. I'd go to the local pub and get a steak-and-kidney affair. "pie-and-pint" specials.

I have never touched a Hot Pocket. I'm aware of them, but I've stayed well clear, even when that was all my ex kept in her house.

Are these better or worse than Wigan Kebabs?

You had me, no lie, until you told me they weren't any good. I could have been easily convinced to tour Finland, sampling meat pies. I'm deadly serious.

Oh yeah, the previous image is from Harold Camping's website. Inky morasses of pdf tracts telling us all how this or that was certain to spell our downfall.

I've saved those tracts. I kept them for when he tried to scrub all traces of his failure from the Internet.

Françoisridge Remembers.

Well, you're still here, because you're reading this. I'm still here, because I'm writing this.

Yes, I'm smug. It's like the fourth time I can personally remember. I'll be just as smug when the next "prophet" tells us all in SimulBrainCast that it's coming real soon, for realsies this time.
A snippet from Harold Camping's website from the last fucking time they told us the world was going to end and we were all going to be raptured up or whatever. "JUDGMENT DAY, MAY 21, 2011. THE BIBLE GUARANTEES IT!" 2012 is crossed out.

I feel like you and I both need to start putting humourjokes in that alt text. Maybe some kind of inside reference.

Do you like being atop a several storey tower made only of open gratings?

But the view of the one little tiny snippet of Canada at sub-42 latitude was nice. Bit of a climb though.
(Map image "borrowed" from Wikipedia.)
Looking up from the bottom of the viewing tower. It's multiple storeys tall. Looking straight down from the top of the viewing tower. As all the walking surfaces are grilles, one can literally see the ground, several storeys down. (And also my shoes.) The view due south from the tower at Point Pelée. It is well over the tree canopy. The very tip of the beach can be seen receding into the distance. A map of the tip of southwestern Ontario and some surrounding US geography. It is centered on Point Pelée--located below the 42nd parallel--an unexpectedly southerly bit of Canada.

Looks like you can, in fact, post anything just as text.

Success!
