Segway
Not much time so must be brief ...
Saw my first Segway the other week. I understood these things were very slow moving, but I would describe it as moving quite slowly, or perhaps even moderately slowly. Anyway by the time our group had resolved to chase after it and push the "driver" over, it was out of range.
Nevertheless, very exciting.

Very, Very Happy
Bought a new CD for the wife today. There was a little card inside which read, in part:
"Your decision to buy this recording is appreciated by more than 40,000 Canadians who work hard producing and supporting music."
Well! We've managed to make a lot of Canadians very happy! That in itself is a very fine thing. I admit I don't know what the population of Canada is - probably about 400,000 - which means we have brought joy to about 10% of the population, all with something as basic as a CD purchase. When I think of all the wonderful things Canada has given us over the years - William Shatner, Wayne & Shuster, The Guess Who etc - I'm glad that we could at least partly repay that debt.
The CD? "Greatest Irish Bands".
No, Canada! I say, thank you!

Possibly Too Much Information
Had to provide a post-vasectomy semen sample this morning. Everything was going quite well, although unfortunately at the moment of no return I dropped the specimen jar on the floor.
And I think we'll leave it at that.
