Witnessing an elite wedding band tonight. Their first six songs went from the Smiths to Whitney Houston to Aretha to Fleetwood Mac. And I heard their soundcheck, and know they’ve got Oasis and the Dandy Warhols coming up the setlist. 😚 👌

I’m busy celebrating the marriage of my second-youngest cousin, but I’ve also got a bit to do. Dylan Cozens notched his 21st point as a Senator, should be about 155 all time tied with Brendan Bell, Matt Carkner and maybe Nick Jensen (tricky when catching an active player, who might also get points)

The Sennies will never beat the Isles. I just have to accept this and move on with my life.

Can’t stream the game because I’m in Mississauga. Is this racism?

“In conclusion, Mississauga is a land of contrasts… thank you.”

View from my hotel room window looking across the street at the Absolute World towers. In the foreground is the large vacant lot that is kiddie corner to them.

Checking the map in Marmora, and Google is now estimating 25 minutes faster, and I’ll bet the delta will be bigger by the time we’re done lunch and getting back on the road.

For the record, we’re stopping at the cafe in Marmora, which I always remember as the Odd Cup Café, as it was named a thousand years ago, and is now called Miners.

Thank you! This is exactly the type of revalidating the decision I had previously taken that I was looking for ;)

There used to be a Country Style on St Laurent near the museum of Sci and Tech that was frequent haunt for Hillcrest students.

Friends. I need to drive to Mississauga today. Was planning to eat the tolls on the 407; but Google is saying that $47 would save me a whopping 2 minutes vs 416-401. Do I pay anyway for peace of mind that the time estimate is consistent, whereas the 401 could add an hour or two without notice?

Dylan Cozens’ 20th point as a Senator skips him up to 160th all time with Dadonov, JBD, Freddy Claesson, and Shane Hnidy!
