Silly things I learned today
Among the silly things I learned today; if you lock your cellphone and forget the password, then you’ve complicated your life. One of our corporate loaners is protected (for now). Removing the battery and the SIM won’t do it, and Google didn’t reveal a magic master code. The phone will take a trip back to Bell, at who knows what cost.
Some guy built a plane in his basement. Probably seemed like a plan, in the beginning. You know, finish up supper and go downstairs for a few hours of cut and paste (or whatever home plane builders do). Now that his flying machine is ready, he called in the guys with the concrete saws, removed one wall of his foundation and towed the toy free. No, this wasn’t a Revell kit. A real, honest-t0-Goodness airplane. And a house with an unfinished basement.
The flood waters won’t go away, south of Montreal, but the army did. And then they came back. However, the word is out. Soldiers don’t do dishes, or sandbags. When the river finally drops to more acceptable levels, the soldiers will leave, again. And the cleanup becomes a local responsibility. Life is so unfair.
Last evening, the Idol machine cranked out another winner. Shelf life for Idols is variable, with most having something less than a year to hang in there. In fact, the last year winner wasn’t even invited back to sing for the big award night. J-Lo did dance, and Steve did sing. Randy… what does he do?
Oh, right. The winner was Scotty, but Lauren likes him, so life is good.
