Mirage
This is another picture that begs me to buy a proper zoom lens digital camera. Living by the big lake you see some odd mirages. Sometimes you can see the hills of Pennsylvania floating above the pale horison, sometimes the edge of the sky looks like a saw from the image of the far off deep lake swells. Tonight coming home it was like the far side of the lake was lifted high in a ridge, rising above the tree line of Simcoe Island. The red line is the real horizon as if that is any help.
The view across the lake was clear as today’s WWTI-TV doppler radar from New York shows – Kingston is under the 401 sign and the view of the photo above is to the SSW:

1000 Spam
Did anyone else get 1000 emails from a spam source titled something like the United States Banking Association at noonish yesterday? I thank God I have my email with ISN still which lets me delete 100 at a time.
Weekend
A good weekend for my teams – Soxs sweep the Yankees and Arsenal wins the League with a chance to go through the season without a loss. Only the Morton lost in their last ditch effort to get promoted to SPL Div. 1 with the most losses and ties possible.
Also, from Trailer Park Boys Ricky ruined the simple task of pouring cereal for my kids.
Classic CBC story type told a wee bit too often.
McBanners
If I was smarter I would know how to paste from flash so I could show you all the rude tastefully funny messages I have put in the McDonald’s ad agency, S2K Graphics, do it yourself McDonald’s banner web widget.
Do any smart people stop by here? [Later: surely I meant smarter than me…]
Via Boing Boing but they missed the do it yourself banner widget.
Baby, It’s Cold Outside…
This is an odd bit of residual demolition – a second story fireplace left hanging after the removal of its neighbour years ago. It’s on the west side of Stoney’s on King Street if you have not noticed it.
