thanks herkamaid. yeah i have access to the alley (it’s funny cuz i never thought i did have access to it until this weekend.) what would trapping these cats involve? i wonder if the house next door thinks they are their yard cats or something? i have no idea, maybe i should talk to them.
The guy across the street from that was arrested has been spending a bunch of time sitting out on his stoop.
It irritates me to no end because prior to his arrest he was completely antisocial and would always avoid making eye contact with you at all costs. You could never do the “hi!” nod or say hello because he’d always look away the second he thought yiou were looking at him.
Now? He’s sitting out there proud as a peacock giving little waves to the neighbors he even gave me the smile nod when I came home the other day.
Too little too late dirt bag. This time I looked him dead in the eye as though to say WTF do you want? I’m not playing the let’s make friends game with you now.
Montrose, it was ok for the first 10 minutes or so (of my 6 mile walk) but started pouring when I reached Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. playground. It’s the only playground in all of New York that bears his name. I didn’t have an umbrella but picked one up finally towards the end. I still enjoyed myself. Almost immediately after getting off the train at Van Siclen, I went past a house of worship, which I believe was baptist, and heard the most incredible singing from the choir inside. I just stood outside and listened and it really set a positive tone for the rest of the walk.
There’s an old cemetery I passed around the start of tour as well that served as the resting site of some of the first Dutch settlers of the area, including Van Siclen. When I stopped at Golden Krust (where I had some rice and peas with curry gravy, roti skin and ginger beer, all of which were delicious) I met a wonderful woman from Jamaica and her daughter. We got to talking about our experiences in New York and it was just so nice. There are many Jamaicans in Toronto so we had lots to talk about, including Caribana and how Canada would never win a medal in the track and field events at the Olympics if not for her fellow countrymen and countrywomen immigrating there and representing us. 🙂
A rare time i agree w Randolph.
Very positive manufacturing and orders news from the UK this morning pushed up sterling.

If you can vote but don’t, then you don’t get to complain.
um, NO.
non voting is just as important AS voting. if you can’t grasp that concept, then that is your problem.
