Edisaurus- in response to your post from yesterday, I could definitely make use of those craft items if you care to send them.  Let me know, and I will message you with our mailing address.

I should have known it was going to happen!

ABC has pulled THE NINE from its schedule indefinitely. Supposedly it will reappear later in the season, but I'm not holding my breath for that.

When it finished a distant third in the timeslot this week, I figured the handwriting was on the wall but was afraid to say anything.

This timeslot has been poison for poor Tim Daly who has seen this show and the superb mystery drama EYES buckle under to the competition.

Most frequent and demanding of my feathered friends is this male King Parrot.

It's been a good morning.

I LOVE the photos, Tomovoz! They have you well trained.

You know what I really hate? I really hate it when you drive 60 miles to the arboretum and then discover that you left the memory chip for the camera at home.

A need for more efficient chip management.
Well it's almost the fish and chips/efficient ships pun and it is Sunday morning.

TWO THINGS:

How is Francois a newbie????

When did you live in Montreal?



Quote from: François on November 25, 2006, 12:59:20 PM
Now, that sure is a trip back down Memory Lane!

(For some reasons, I am quite fond of department stores!)

Well, I have visited that La Baie store quite often in the... seventies! AND I do have a story: I vividly remember the day I used the revolving (HUGE)  doors of the big main entrance and... being stuck holding it for everyone else who was entering... After a while, I yelled that I was going to let the door go... I did... and some jerk yelled back because he had gotten that door on his face! He may not remember that event, but I obviously do; Mr Cellophane I was! Story of my life!!

I also interviewed for a window dresser position at Ogilvy's (THAT Ogilvy's!) and got the job... which I declined because I also got an offer I grabbed at the same time! Ogilvy's WAS very old English and they were very nice to me -- whatever that means!! -- when I "auditioned" for them that I almost felt guilty for turning them down!

Yes, their Xmas window displays were quite something!

I lived in Montréal from 1974 through 1977.

I am a newbie because I unregistrered a few weeks ago BUT the system still knows me and won't allow me to use my email address again! Funny!

This morning I went to the arboretum for a walk. Although I left the memory chip for the camera at home, the camera has an internal memory that holds a very few pictures. This is what I saw:

Marsh wrens are fairly common around water -- but they are always hidden in the reeds and rarely ever seen.

Thanks Dear Reader Laura.  Our own little wrens move about to quickly for me to photograph - or perhaps I'm too slow!

You know it's a male... because of the colours or... because he told you so? :D

François - the King Parrot assured me he was not a Queen Parrot.  The Females are Emerald green and no trace of red on their heads.

Contrary to common belief, males are prettier not because they are males but, in case of danger, they attract the eye and play decoy...

Male! What a marvelous sex!
