Long weekend! @yyzroxy is excited. And INTENSE. (Taken with instagram)
Used to be two of these beautiful trees here. New neighbours chopped one down. Can’t figure out why anyone would want to. (Taken with instagram)
Park and pedal: Bike commuting made simple
Want a cool way to combat $4 gas? Take your bicycle, at least part of the way. (We can’t all live in Portland, where bicycle commuting has become a religion practiced by more than 5 percent of the population.)Driving through Toronto on a Saturday made me wonder why ANYBODY in that city wastes their money on driving when cycling is cheaper, faster, and way less frustration-inducing. If I ever move back, a bicycle will be my #1 transportation. Hopefully by then the bike infrastructure will have improved.
There are just too many cars for the tiny city streets.
I don’t know why anyone chooses to drive in this city either.
So @simonm223 convinced me to try out Instagram. Here’s @yyznermal licking her own face. (Taken with instagram)
Calvin: Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.
