Down With Feather Pillows!

Hello and good day. The recent days have been tiring and strange. Having recently moved to Ottawa I've become overwhelmed by strange bus routes and restaurants that sell shawarmas located on every street corner. If you don't know what that is, it's just a meat pita with garlic sauce and vegetables.

There is still a lot of the city I've yet to see, but I already made the obvious visit to parliament. While there I saw some people dressed up like chickens. Despite my best efforts I couldn't figure out the purpose of their actions and wasn't willing to stand around in the rain to find out. I'll just assume they were protesting the exploitation of large human-shaped chickens.

Anyway, my adventures continue, as well as my quest for income. I gotta go now. I'm suddenly craving a chicken shawarma.

Octoberfest without the Mustard

Still alive, everyone. But also still without steady Internet. I've been keeping myself busy with fun things like mud skiing, interpretive eating, and juggling cats. Also, I broke out a canvas recently and painted this strange thing. I call it "The Moron Lisa"...


Whilst shopping the other day I stumbled upon two humorous finds. Here's the first one.

If you couldn't pick up on the irony, this special plastic package cutting knife is inside one of those stubborn plastic packages. You'll have to buy a knife in advance just to open this knife. But how are you going to get into the first knife's package?!! With scissors of course.

And check out this crazy crap.

It's difficult to make out, but this giant bouncing rubber ball has a warning sticker on it that says "Warning! Choking Hazard! Contains small parts". Well that's a lie. If you can't tell from the picture, this ball is huge. Your kid would have to unhinge his jaw to choke on this. Doesn't really need a warning, people. If your kid is dumb enough to try and swallow something bigger than a baseball, then your kid is a lost cause.

Anyway, catch you fools later.
