Something woke me up last night. Nowadays when something does that it unsettles me and it takes me a while to go back to sleep.
I remember when I was a kid every once in a while I would be awoken by a loud bang. I'd be scared thinking it was a car or truck backfiring near by. My mother would run in, hug me, and tell me not to worry - that it was just gunfire. She'd give me a drink of water, maybe some more 'night night juice'* if I was extra restless, and I'd quickly fall back asleep feeling safe and secure. As an adult its rare I feel as safe now as I did then.
I never did find out what the noise was last night.


*When I grew up I found out it was Colt 45 that she would give me when I was having trouble sleeping, it worked most every time.

When we get flying cars I wonder if they will have up and down signals that people could not use like their turn signals.

No, but I can state my belief that he is more than welcome to return to Jordan where he wasn't even able to get identity papers let alone start a new life.

My family members lived, in no particular order, in Windsor, London, Calgary, Halifax, all sorts of little shitholes along the CP Rail in Saskatchewan, Vancouver, Lethbridge...

I have very little sympathy for people who are welcomed into a country with all the gov't assistance one could ever imagine and still bitch and moan. Not everyone who came here had it nearly as easy as they do.

I think I tore my rotator cuff yesterday. I was driving and lunged for the radio to turn it off. I was able to stop it after only hearing about 6 seconds of Angel In Harlem so overall yesterday was a pretty good day.

But did you find what you were looking for?

I'm trying to get this passed through the proper channels. It just makes sense.

New daylight savings time rule - The week where clocks get turned forward, they now get turned forward at 4pm on Friday
Not only brilliant but should be implemented immediately.

This past week in my elevator at work between 4 and 5 pm it has a countdown to happy hour clock on the video screen - can I piggy back on your idea and have every weekday leap forward an hour at 4pm? Then we can make those 5 hours up on the weekend by falling back sometime between Friday and Saturday nights.
