Ottawa Race Weekend really needs volunteers to attend to street barricades along the race route. May 24 & 25, 2025.

Great for high school volunteer hours!

Ask me if you have questions.

My pet peeve. We should all be equally subjected to ALPR, red light and speed photo enforcement, and automated tolls.

Does Poilievre have his security clearance yet? If not, why not? And why isn't he being nailed on this every single day? Our country is worth a security clearance.

The more time you spend on the internet the more important it becomes that you do something in your life like deadlifting, running a fast mile, building tables out of wood with a saw, etc.

Got a text out of the blue from a friend from England this morning: Good to see Mark Carney take over from Trudeau he will see you through economic troubles. UK was sad to see him go.

US citizens need to be acting more like US Parks employees.
Be visible and keep the pressure on.

Once the current administration is out of power, the US needs to amend its governmental check and balances. For one, the president, senators and congressmen need to show proof of passing a basic economics course.

If you are so sure of your politics then why do you need to purge historical data from the archives away from public view?

What are you scared of?

I used to only read a little so I had to be selective in the books I chose.

Now I read a lot so I can afford to select books on a whim. The range of topics is awesome.

You see an old man runner 🏃who doesn't lift, & there's a good chance you'll see skinny little legs on their way to atrophy.

You see an old man hiker who doesn't lift and you'll see muscular legs with absolutely jacked calves 💪

There's something in that for all of us.

Getting fit

A piece on:

* What I mean when I talk about *fitness*
* What it takes to get fit
* The exact sessions I did to get fit
* How you can do it too

My first longer form piece of writing, I hope you'll like it.

Is the USA a democracy?

I want to keep asking this question for the next four years, hopefully without being jailed.

A theory:

Google random things that make you happy.

Maybe, just maybe, Google will then target you with similar happy advertising?

Balance your reading between BlueSky and a real books.

And when I say balance, I mean heavily towards books. They offer such a better return for your time.

Eating alone?

I dare you to try leaving you phone alone and concentrating on the food.

Hard eh?!
