    Cat B is playing with the mouse cursor.

    On a sweet November morning, with a strong drizzle, just before going to work you know why you said months ago to your children that a dog is a shared responsibility....

    Sorry if I didn't update here. I've been pretty busy lately. Son called me from school the next morning. He spent the night outside helping a friend who had run away. We had a serious talk and he understands that he did things the wrong way even if he had good intentions.

    Well today is June 24th, Québec's national day, aka La Saint Jean Baptiste . I will do my civic duty and over the day I shall promptly get drunk, and possibly high, I don't know, we'll see where the day takes me. I will also apologize in advance for any nonsense I may write later today under the influence of... stuff. Good day to you !

    Have you ever noticed that many supposed semi-pro photographers spend much of their time posting photos of themselves to FB, their blogs, et al? Occasionally you'll see pictures of them taking pictures too, but rarely just their actual photos. And no offense ladies, but this seems like mainly a (n attractive) woman thing to me. Just an exercise in vanity? ("I am a sophisticated hot woman who takes pro-quality photographs ... see me do it on Facebook!" ;)) Or do women just know the score and understand that most guys would rather ogle them than their photos, even if they are great photos, and they use them to generate likes and hits and followers to help broaden their apparent popularity?

    If the photos of the photographer are good is it appropriate to get a reference?

    Kind of like the old brain teaser -- you need a haircut and there are two barbers in town. One is well groomed and has perfect hair; the other barber's hair is a wreck. Which barber do you choose?

    The wreck or course, as you don't cut your own hair. (This assumes that there are no other proximate towns or barbers . . . )

    Hmmm Interesting. Facebook people come in all sorts, that's for sure. I bet psychologists and psychiatrists find Facebook and endless source or experimental information.

    Rus lost... Krajicek lost... :p

    But to answer your question: Tea, I suppose. It's London, after all. Maybe some milk as well.

    Edit:
    That reminds me of a quote from one of my top 3 quotable movies!

    Top 3 quotable movies....

    Spaceballs - "I see your Schwartz is as big as mine..."
    Reservoir Dogs - "Let me tell you what 'Like a Virgin' is about. It's all about a girl who digs a guy with a big dick. The entire song. It's a metaphor for big dicks..."
    Predator - "Get to da Choppa!"

    So many great quotable movies, and I only get to mention three...

    The Caine Mutiny - "Mr. Maryk, you may tell the crew for me that there are four ways of doing things aboard my ship: The right way, the wrong way, the Navy way, and my way. They do things my way, and we'll get along."

    Monty Python and the Holy Grail - "Oh, I see. Running away, eh? You yellow bastards! Come back here and take what's coming to you! I'll bite your legs off!" (The Black Knight, after King Arthur has cut off his arms and legs. :shake:)

    Back to the Future - "I HATE MANURE!" (Biff Tannen, buried in manure for the second time in the movie :grin:)

    I agree. I quote the Holy Grail often. It's just so filled with juicy verbal tidbits.

    In other news I really want to buy some new summer shirts.
