The World – “It Just Sort Of Appeared” – Fauci Comes Clean Over ‘Science-less’ Six-Foot-Distancing Rule

“It Just Sort Of Appeared” – Fauci Comes Clean Over ‘Science-less’ Six-Foot-Distancing Rule You still bump into the stickers from time to time: “Six Feet of Distance.” It’s weird and anachronistic at this point. No one pays any attention anymore. Still it would be nice to know where this came from. Oddly, we don’t really know. Anthony … Read more

Thunder Bay – Sunday – Universal Letter Writing Week

Water bottle photo. Full of ice today. A feral shopping cart.  People take carts from store but never return them.   No penalty for doing this sooo why change behaviour?   Another example of just how our civilization is falling apart.  Having no penalties or repercussions only encourages people. The same can be said for continually offering … Read more

Thunder Bay – Saturday – Make Your Dream Come True Day

Sign says “open” but its around 7:30 am on a Saturday morning. I’m going to give this a “false”.  I doubt if its open. Once again, no glorious sunrise this morning. When you are desperate, you photograph anything. Smell the glove. Yes, its as cold as this looks. Water bottle photo.  Nobody seems to care … Read more

Thunder Bay – Friday – Quitters Day

No sunrise this morning. Waterfront art gallery construction site A missed focus produces something colourful.

 Yes, nobody mentions the fact that this can happen.  Insurance costs (home and auto) for EV owners are going to be high. Then there are the electric buses.  How long before our high salaried residents of City Hall decide the time is right to get a couple of these potential crematoriums on wheels … Read more

Thunder Bay – Wednesday – Peculiar People Day (US)

A couple of centuries of experience dealing with snow clearing on city streets and sidewalks and we get this.  We have a competition between the road clearing crew and the sidewalk clearing crew .  One pushed the snow one way and the other pushes it back. This happens several times over several days after a … Read more

Thunder Bay – Tuesday – International Choreographers Day

The joys of being a pedestrian in Thunder Bay.  Sidewalks turn into an obstacle course come winter.  I can’t imagine a disabled pedestrians trying to get from point A to point B  with city workers throwing snow back onto freshly plowed sidewalks.  Then there are the wall of snow produced by graders at every intersection … Read more

Thunder Bay – Monday – Typing Day

Another feral mitten.  I see lost mittens every day. Had to wait for a train this morning.  It was a very long one.  They always are when weather conditions are awful.  Cold this morning. City lights bouncing off of the clouds Not going to be an amazing sunrise this morning. There was some colour out … Read more
