On the rare occasion that I visit a Canada Post outlet, it always staggers me to look up at the sign and see the 5,000 person town I grew up in.

I mean, what about Steinbach, Manitoba? Or Kenora, Ontario? Or ... I had to look this one up ... Bridgewater, Nova Scotia?

January is over, which means the great people at Storytelling Collective are hosting Flash Fiction February once again. I wrote 17 days last year and hope to beat that this year.

Each day that I write something for the day's prompt, I'll post a brief summary here.

I've long said that everyone needs a killer app before they jump in on a new (to them) technology or paradigm. For my parents, they didn't embrace computers until I showed them how to use the Internet to look up race horse pedigrees. After that, my dad used his computers extensively for photography.

On New Year's Day 2019 I took a picture on a ride in the river valley through a treed area that is single-track-ish. I have rode that route every NYD since. Here is a six-year retrospective of the route, all six pictures taken at approximately the same place. #bikesky #bikeyeg

Of all the arguments to stop humans from pursuing immortality, the fact that Coke in the Year 3000 is going to taste like a cyborg's ass is the most solid.
