Wing special on wednesdays

So... Alex wanted to have some wings today... maybe because we're thinking about starting to get in shape before Christmas... so we decided to go to Sticky Fingers in Barrie. Well... the problem was when we got there, we discovered that the place was jam packed. Turns out they have 1/2 price on wings on wednesdays... well.. 3 x 20 wings for the four of us was about the right amount. Decent wings too.

Chicago at night

Visiting my cousins in chicago and taking some pics from high up above the city.

YYZ

Flying on friday 13, flight 137, from gate 133! Freakin air can!

green buzz...

So I failed to write in a few days... I've been bad...

So much stuff has been on published, seen on TV and in movie theatres about environment. Finally the green buzz is hitting the North American society with a great force. Even our government is facing some tough questions, so in light of that I am going to add a small article here from today's issue of NY Times. I've realised how much I've been polluting after moving to Ontario... flying around so much this year... driving waaaaaaaaaay more than usual... in Vancouver... we live in a much more compact way. Ontario is just horrible!

Enjoy!

Fog installation

So Saturday night we went to a party and then we went to check out this wonderful event they had in Toronto called Nuit Blanche. Pretty much they set up all these wonderful art installations all around the city and people have only one night to see them. You set off at sunset and you have until sunrise to see what you can. I was so surprised to see how many people were out on this rainy night. We didn't hit any of the museums that offered free admission, but went over to the Philosopher's Walk between the Rom and Royal Conservatory of Music to check out the fog installation.

Well, my friend Mark really participated in the installation! Since it was rainy, it got really muddy. Mark was walking on the hill where the fog dispensers/misters were installed, he slipped and slid down the hill, got covered in mud and all the while managed to stay on the cell phone. I was standing on the bottom of the hill taking pictures and see this guy flying 20 feet down the hill on his ass... amazing. He finally stops, turns his head and I realise it's Mark. And he's still on the phone... never dropped it, never missed a beat! And then he just casually gets up and walks into the fog.

Really cool installation...
