City of Duck

Monday, December 12th, 2005

Saturday was a nice day. It started out with me driving all the way to Victoria Park and Finch to AFC to join the carpool to the TC volunteer retreat. On the way to Etobicoke, we got lost, but no one knew that. Once we got there we had a nice breakfast of sugar from Tim Hortons. We had some time of worship and prayer and afterwards, we had a nice time of getting to know one another by playing some violent gamesSome of which I’ll be leading a FOCS this week..

The pizza got here and we had lots of pizza. And wings and baby carrots. And cream puffs and cheesecake. But not just any cheesecake. The top of the cheesecake was chocolatey. The actual cake part was coffee. And at the bottom, was some delicious chocolate biscuity thing.

Bringing lunch to school sucks. Really. Who enjoys bringing subpar food to school and eating it when having tasty cooked meals at home is an option? Unless you live next to the school or are rich and have a second period spare, lunch food is usually crap. At the beginning of the day, it might be fine, but after about three hours in your locker and that food with a lot of potential just had its value and tastiness go down like the Executor in ROTJ.

Election 2006

Monday, December 5th, 2005

It’s been just over a year, but the Liberals’ minority government met its demise just last week. With such a short lived reign, this upcoming election looks very, very familiar. If I weren’t that brilliant, I would have thought that Paul Martin just called an election for June 28, 2004. (more…)
