Cars, Security and a Peek into my Life

Expanded my URL Collection

I don’t collect anything, never have.  In fact, I’m currently in super-purge-mode, I’ll show you later this week.

URLs though, that’s a weakness.  I now have 40!

Behold:

Come ON how good is that top one?! So good I almost didn’t tell you about it.

I’ve been at this for years.  I keep a list on my phone.  Sometimes when I want to zone out, I sit running seraches, see if they’re available

This is what I bought last time.

 

A big thanks for Hover for enabling my borderline obsession.

$15/year, privacy included, which is a good deal. Plus when you call, someone in downtown Toronto picks up. Hopefully for you Mike picks up. This is Mike. Ha, hi Mike!  It’s still funny :|

 

An Acura for TIFF, Allllll Right

I picked it up yesterday, hi from Honda HQ in Markham. Don’t we match well?  YA buddy.

We drove out, that’s Alen, Reggie and Mark and me. It was Reggie’s birthday, neat eh.

There we met our new friend, security guard Joe, hi pal! Welcome to my blog.

It’s an Acura TSX Performance Sedan. It’s good and unassuming, with great pick up.

Picked up bff Casie and we flew around downtown to the Four Seasons and back.

It’s gonna be a great week, thanks again Acura.

The Foundation Has to be Strong

Meet Martin, my business lawyer. We’ve been a team since 2007.

We meet regularly, he shakes his head at my stories of prospecting-for-money-through-blogging, reminds me good partnering practices, and is awesomely old-school.

Ross Rumbell Professional Corporation

I take the legal side to what I’m doing here seriously. All my music is royalty-free, I’m sensitive to if people are okay with being put online (see Exploring a Hell Hole for example), and do you ever see photos of children around here?  It’s a foundation, why build it any other way than super strong.

 

Watch Me Drive a Volkswagen Very Fast

One Saturday Volkswagen invited me to a parking lot by Ontario Place.

They asked which cars caught my eye, then, “okay, here. Now make it go as fast as possible around this awesome track we’ve built.” And then the angels sang.

Here’s footage from a rearview-mirror-mounted camera.

Casie cleverly filmed another round from the back seat.

I’d have stayed all day if I could.

Thanks for being great hosts, Kristi and Danie (who should be in this photo).

This is the new 2012 Beetle, and the only one in Canada.

Better, non!? Less hippie-ish, girly.

Look at the interiors, see the consistency? Mine’s a ’99, below.

Also, to talk photography for a sec, this may be one of my best framing jobs to date.

I’ll now conclude with…

… don’t VW and I match very well wink?!

This driving event was 3 weeks ago, and my car had just broke down, remember?

They emailed me shortly after, they felt my woes, how about an Eos for a week to help out?  Thank you very much yes please!

I’ve been flying around, morning drives, Grandma and errands, a road trip yesterday, and not showing up places sloppy from riding my bike.

I’ll leave you with this.

See the sign? I placed that in my parking spot when it was empty, for good luck. It worked.

Yellow arrows – that’s my parking job BOOM first time like a glooooove.
