Speed Doesn’t Kill, Slowness Does

The Solomon Curve shows the relationship between average speed and collision rates.

Drivers at the greatest risk are those moving slower than the rest of traffic.

Favourite line:

The fastest way to get in a crash, is to go slow.

Interesting eh – speed doesn’t kill, slowness does.

And really, if the road feels too fast for you, stay off of it.

Off To Alberta with Ford for 48 Hours

They’ve heavily refreshed their classic pickup truck, the F150.

There will be dinosaurs!

I’ve been once before, it’s the largest and most significant concentration of fossils in the world. Another #1 for Canada <3

Pumped. Plus also nice, they invited KeriBlog not the paper.  I’ll be 2 hours behind you, home late Thursday night.

I’ve only been to Alberta once to visit my brother Brooks.

But I love pickup trucks, always have.

I’m sick, been fighting off a fever. Cross your fingers please the plane doesn’t make it worse.  I’m convinced I’m winning because of that time I didn’t take penicillin, and created MegaImmuneSystem.

Stood on my tiptoes with the rest of Canada last night. 4-1 gone in 15 minutes baffles me.  Least our astronaut Chris Hadfield got home safe, welcome home to him eh! His YouTube Channel was fantastic.

Came home this evening to a new Blackberry Q10, thanks TELUS!

I tested the Z10 (no keyboard), now this one.  I’m more excited for this model, because the QWERTY keyboard was what stopped me from switching to iPhone for so long.

I missed that and BBM… which interesting, Blackbery announced today that they’re going to give it away for both iPhone and Android this summer, BBM for all!  

My cell phone history.

Original post.

(you bet I wore the StarTac in that clip on my belt, like a boss)

Picked up a cupcake during errands, to celebrate a phone call.

5 years ago I set a goal / benchmark this one thing through my blog, and out of the blue today at 3pm my phone rang, and a gentleman said hello, then made it come true.

I can’t tell you what it is without sabotaging something, I’m sorry, not doing this to be mysterious, and mostly this is more for me than you (documenting), but ya, big blog win :)

Kay I have to finish packing, update my camera’s software, news sourced and written for Autonet, flight leaves at noon.

TTY from Alberta!

 

 

180 Degrees and it's 180 Degrees

It’s like opposite land on the other side of that fence, eh.

Spotted during the test drive of Hyundai’s all-new Santa Fe in California.

Saw lots of border cops patrolling the hillside on bikes, drove through a temporary pop-up customs checkpoint, serious stuff. We don’t have anything like this in Canada, for which I’m grateful.

I walked through a turnstile into Mexico a few years ago. It was amazingly easy to enter the country, it was literally a turnstile like in the subway; not as easy to get out.  Overheard lots of people were there for “dentist appointments“.

 

Windshield Glass Breaks Like This

Windshields are two pieces of glass, sandwiching a piece of laminate.

That’s the part that keeps the glass together, instead of disintegrating onto the driver.

Spotted in a Etobicoke parking lot.

 

How Did I Never Think of this Before?

Every nutrient I need, with a prep > eat > clean time that’s the most efficient ever!

Went with the vegan protein one; figure it’ll have the least chemicals and filler.

It’s doesn’t taste the worst, and it really does give you energy and good feelings.

Imagine how much time I just saved, over the rest of my life: months
