The city should have more pedestrian only streets downtown, year-round.

I thought it was a banjo that you couldn't play a sad song on.
Anyways, come join us Wednesday mornings, 10AM, at the Gananoque Public Library to jam with other uke-aholics! Always fun!

Regarding my color negatives, I haven't had much luck balancing color. I tend to just scan from the prints.

Kodachromes tend to keep their proper color balance better than the rest. But my Ektachromes seem to vary wildly. Generally too bluish. My old Agfachromes are too reddish. I've been able to correct most.

They make sense in some low-traffic situations. Those situations, however, do not include Hwy 15. There are plans to eventually widen Hwy 15 to 4 lanes. When that happens, they'll have to replace the roundabout with lights anyways.

Jared had one big strike against him - he was too qualified for the job. Now let's see which unqualified Fox host will be chosen by Taco.

These days, regarding the stupid and ridiculous stuff Taco might do, nothing surprises me.

Doomed, yes. But how much damage will be done in the mean time? The worst case is the complete collapse of the US.

So far, I haven't found a baritone uke that I like. I'd go with a tenor guitar instead.

I've often said that aerospace companies are better off if their contracted projects do not actually make it into space, and they all know this full well.

Good luck in trying to find another anchor, considering that the former Sears space is now still only 1/8th occupied. Perhaps they should consider replacing the unused retail space with high-rise housing.

Ditto! Quite the honor to have your song covered by one of the best, and most influential, guitar players ever.

Chapman's, a popular ice cream brand in Ontario, is absorbing any Trump-tariffs, while looking elsewhere for ingredients unavailable within Canada.

You can find this notice at Loblaws, and other related stores.

In the meantime, the rest of the world must plan for the possibility that the US will NOT get through it.

A dead worm was found in his brain. Hmmm, so the worm found nothing in that particular brain to feed on.

Get your popcorn out while we all witness Trump's decline!
βI can only lift that little phone so many times in a dayβ.
That's what happens when you battle multiple fronts at the same time, while surrounding yourself with idiots.

Mark Carney had one purpose in visiting the WH: To scope out the players, to see who's really in charge.
Think of the 1994 movie "Maverick" where Bret enters a poker game offering to lose for 1 hour. During that time, he learns everyone's tells, and then cleans up.

One obvious suggestion: Use the pieces in the successor to the ISS. Axiom could probably make good use of the HALO module.

That Alberta riding is certainly safe, with 80% Conservative votes. But what would happen to PP's cred if he won that riding with less than 80%?

So now PP will run in a by-election won by a Conservative with 80% of the vote. What will happen to PP's cred if he wins the seat by less than 80%? He's not out of the woods yet.

Not just 3 1/2 years. The effects of the cuts will linger on for years after Trump is gone. The best scientists will be the first to leave. And the US will also lose the best teachers who will train the next generation of scientists.
