Because I am in possession of the gasoline receipts for Ian’s Land Rover trip from New York to Cavendish, I can attest to the fact that Ian and Tessa’s purchase of a Toyota Prius will be responsible for at least 10% of Brooklyn’s Kyoto committments. That would be if Brooklyn actually had any Kyoto committments.

Congratulations!

The Seattle Children’s Museum has one of the nicest washrooms I’ve ever encountered:

Note the colourful decor, the changing mat, the sinks of various heights, and the sparkling cleanliness.

I’ve tried, but so far failed, to find the proper URL to use in my wireless phone to access the CBC’s wireless offering. Does anyone in the readership have this information?

Here’s a page at the CBC that lists all of their electronic mailing lists.

A lot of Hollywood movies open on Christmas Day. The interesting thing about this year’s lineup here in Charlottetown is that I would happily go and see any of the seven movies scheduled:

  • Cheaper By The Dozen
  • Mona Lisa Smile
  • Paycheck
  • Peter Pan
  • Something’s Gotta Give
  • The Last Samurai
  • The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King

Okay, maybe I wouldn’t happily go and see The Lord of the Rings but that’s only because I consider the entire franchise weird and unnatural.

Apparently this afternoon I met Sandy Peardon without knowing it, thanks to a social engagement skills deficit on the part of Dan James (i.e. Dan either forgot to introduce me, or mumbled when he did so). It may be possible to chock this up to Dan’s fever-induced delerium.

I wonder if it would be possible to use XSLT to transform the local CBC website from HTML into an RSS feed?
