Why can't we have ads this bad here?

Impressive. When I am in power some people may not be allowed to breed…

In Flanders Fields

In Flanders Fields

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

- John McCrae (1915)

Picture Lake

Today you hit me in the back with a snowball while we took pictures of Mt. Shuksan. If you are reading this, pretty girl, you have come to my website via a hastily scribbled url on a piece of notepad paper. If you would like, send me an email here … I have even more questions for you! :)

Im owed some diamonds

I have been writing bad bad things on the internet now for 10 years. The Daily Rant is 10 years old today. In lieu of birthday cake I’m going to offer you all my insincere apologies! :P

Crazy meats

Last week I ate Musk Ox. Tonight I am making my spaghetti sauce with Buffalo meat instead of the usual Beef. Up next week are Kangaroo steaks. Can Ostrich be far behind?

Eh?

Watching House the other night:

House plunks his cane on a patients foot…

Patient: “I’m sure it was an accident”
House: “Is he Canadian?”
Nurse: “Uh, he’s a low priority”
House: “Is that a yes?”

OUCH!

The Rejection

I’ve pulled off the side of the road. I am taking pictures of the mountain. We are ALL taking pictures of the mountain. It is surprising how many people I see out here with all kinds of equipment. I am not talking about the casual tourist/sunday drive types with a quickie-digital-hold-at-arms-length type of camera. I’m talking cameras worth as much as my car and lenses as long as my leg. Okay, maybe not quite that long, but LONG. I barely fit into this group but whatever.

So I’m on the side of the road, my car door is open and I have some suitable tunes coming out from my car stereo. Im taking some pictures of the mountain at sunset – standing about 20 feet in front of my car. Another car pulls off the road right in front of me. A girl gets out. Perhaps about 25ish.
