http://www.ottawasun.com/2012/10/27/ottawa-residents-split-on-mondays-new-biweekly-garbage-pickup “It’s almost G-Day in Ottawa.”….. I would rephrase and call it G-String Days hereon in.

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/story/2012/10/27/bc-quake-reported.html Well I guess it must have been the plane when it touched ground here in Calgary. Something like 380 Murray Street/Val des Monts. You know these things have a way of getting to you when all they do is annoying. I’m really truly interested in the big ones – something that’ll really truly make…

http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/preparations-hasten-for-hurricane-sandy/2012/10/26/0f3db290-1f8b-11e2-ba31-3083ca97c314_story.html Welcome to my world Washington Post.

New York Times online – F.D.A. Details Contamination at Pharmacy
I would definitely lump in flu shots under this category that you are taking a huge leap of faith on a system that does not have a great track record of checks and balances. While the health system is well intentioned, the bottom line is money as is everything else. Chances are better to cook…

National Post online – Full Comment Kelly McParland: The Ford brothers tag-team mayoral act needs more than just a minor clean-up
http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/2012/10/26/kelly-mcparland-the-ford-brothers-tag-team-mayoral-act-needs-more-than-just-a-minor-clean-up/ Now I’ve got Toronto on the radar. My guess is that at this rate, the radar will spiral to encompass southern Ontario all the way to Quebec City and include eastern Ontario – my fav though > Ottawa.

http://www.ottawasun.com/2012/10/26/traffic-nightmare-on-elgin Well imagine that – maybe the backhoe & company contractor was unto something subconsciously.

Ottawa Sun online – Time of Use hydro pricing kicks in Nov. 1
http://www.ottawasun.com/2012/10/26/time-of-use-hydro-pricing-kicks-in-nov-1 Bad – Terrible – Horrible idea the Time of Use of Hydro. It’ll do nothing but drive up costs for people, health care from over stressed families and put another nail in the Ontario Coffin of people moving out of the province.
