Apply with precision, if you can

Remember that old saw about a man with a hammer? I now own a box taper. That should put fear in your heart.

Actually, I needed one, and the price of $6.99 with two rolls of cheap tape thrown in for good measure made sense. Had a computer box to close for return under RMA for son #1. And I learned that you can go to certain stores, explain that the box is traveling via a famous courier prepaid, and they take the box without question. On second thought, that might not be so great…

Yes, the Rouge et Or did win the Mitchell Cup, shortly after midnight. On their way to the Vanier Cup, and I think that’s a really big deal for players and fans alike. OK, not so much for fans like me who will have to watch TV to get a look-see. The camera work yesterday was execrable. Better get better for next Friday.

We’re dogsitting this evening, and I’m the object of much attention.

Next on my list of challenges: applying a protective coating layer to the Playbook. I have a kit, and that means special liquids and a spatula and properly sized pieces of expensive plastic. The only thing lacking; my effort. I hate applying protective sheeting. A witness to my inability to line up the edges and avoid the bubbles. Always looks like a storm had gone through. I wonder if anyone else in the family feels particularly linear? Volunteers wanted.

An important nutritional victory this week in American education. Pizza still qualifies as a vegetable. “A slice of pizza will continue to qualify as a vegetable because it contains two tablespoons of tomato paste.” There. Children remain safe from the dreaded broccoli tree.
