The Last Week Looked Like This

I had an excellent “hat hair” day.

Drove those cars, around that rink.

Note my new camera, a GoPro Hero 3. I have another post drafted just about it, it’s that cool.

Packed in a LOT this week.  I’m a bit behind on everything, definitely email, which I am OCDing a little out about.

Last Friday’s horoscope.  Luckily, I didn’t see this till 9pm.

And it really was that good a day. 5 huge things happened to me last Friday.

This week’s flowers.

I like how they will open up; it helps to mark the passage of time.

One of my best signatures in a while. When I redo my sidebar art, I’m going to replace the existing one, with this.

Went to the Yorkdale Mall grand opening party.  They said they’re poised to do over one billion in 2013, and if they do, that will be the most ever in North America.

Saw the new Tesla store.

12,000 people bought one, sight unseen :O

Specifically, I was there for the new TELUS flagship store opening. It’s beautiful, but I’ll show you in another post, because I also spoke with them this afternoon about security stuff, and I’m going to put it all together.

This is an Emulator.

Rode the train.

To pick up this week’s car, a Nissan Juke.

Look closer… it’s actually a 4-door, neat, eh.

Aaaaand this is me, just before hitting publish on this post.

Shutting down now, no more internet till tomorrow. A walk, then a beer and last night’s ‘The Office’, betcha I don’t see 11pm.

Have a great start to your weekend, TTYT

Visiting Unionville is like Visiting Olden Times

When I picked up the 2013 Honda Accord in Markham on Monday, I decided to stop by Unionville.

Just north of the Toronto, it’s a fast, 25-minute highway drive from right downtown, easy.  Good destination if you want to escape the city for an afternoon lunch and walk.

This is Main Street, Unionville, which is 218 years old.

I know all this because I almost moved here last summer. I was disenchanted with the city, and this is the opposite of downtown.

I decided I was going to live above a rich person’s coach house, found a real estate agent, who found me a coach house, that’s how close I came.

Here’s the most interesting part of this area.

Back in the wild west days of the interent, laste ’90s early ’00s, just north of Unvionville around ‘Too Good Pond’, used to be a collection of people who were internet pioneers, and had their own, off-the-grid ISP.

Here’s the Unionville wiki, go, for an afternoon of olden times (that’d make a good tagline).
