Very nice drawings here - makes me want to get a tablet...but first i should use the watercolours given to me last year....

Quebec pop? Go figure....

apparently - today is the most depressing day of the year

The transport gods are after me. My car was stolen last week. I got it back at the end of the week as the thieves (I suspect a couple of homeless kids) were arrested in Quebec City. Nice and toasty with a 101 fever I took a morning bus to Quebec, cab ride to the towing yard, had the guy show me how to start my car with a screwdriver, drove back to Montreal in a storm and dropped it off at the garage. Before even doing any repairs I'd shelled out over $200 just to get my stolen car back - $100 just to the towing company. (I don't have insurance). Beyond leaving the car a shithole with my personal belongings strewn all over the back seat intermingled with their clothes (including underwear) - they were kind enough to bust the ignition, a window, the lock to the trunk, and rip out the back seat.
The gods ain't done quite yet. I just brought my bike in from outside as it was finally above zero and I could unlock the frozen bike lock - i figured I'd "dry out" the lock inside so I could start using my bike again. No go. It seems one of Montreal's finest snowplough drivers decided to use my bike as a battering ram. The frame is a pretzel.
Tommorrow I expect to find my shoes burned to a crisp under the transport gods' magnifying glass of terror....

I was at a party last night and realized my blog-failings (or failed-bloggings). People prefaced ideas with "I just talked about this on my weblog...."
I didn't keep silent though. I talked about Batman because he is well published already.

clowns can be REALLY scary. cruising around twenty at a time in their VW beetles. i watched a clown join a medieval battle in le parc du mont royal (many knights, very few maidens). he was indestructible with his dagger against their giant bastard duct-taped nerf swords.

I ended up getting the B1 on ebay... a good deal and new...and yup - i still like it.

i like this - i think i want it - it's cheap:

so anyways, the whole raising shetland ponies thing is working out alright. the market is still weak but i got my inside jockey connections. nobody wants to ride shetland these days though - they're crazy. it's so much easier to get on one: no stool, no hassles.

can "blogging" be transitive? - as in i blogged that topic yesterday...you grok?
