I live in Jersey City now and park on the street. This means moving the car when the street sweepers pass though. Parking here is very tough; sometimes in the evening I drive around for half an hour or more looking for a space. Imagine my visceral and emotional response when I see a car (purposely?) talking up two parking spots. Either the driver is a selfish mutt or they're a selfish mutt and they're saving a space for when hubby gets home.
Last week I had had enough. I had a pen and paper, so I left a note on their windshield that said, "You selfish prick, how many spaces do you need?" Did that change anything? No, but it made me feel better.
I invited Ryan Reynolds, Ryan Gosling, Brendan Fraser and Rick Moranis to my Canada Day party. None of them could come but they were all very apologetic.
Dear friends, you are invited to celebrate Maman’s birthday on 2 July. She would have been 100yo!
Treat yourself to a French pastry, or some Belgian chocolate, or even some delicious gelato/cassata. She loved them all! (Actually, on a really hot day she loved an icy shandy, but I’m not pushing beer)
In the meantime, put on your favorite touque, pour a Labatt’s and dig into a big helping of poutine. Crank up some Bryan Adams tunes, then have a nice Ryan Reynolds movie marathon, eh?
You know what day it is, you hoser.
Just finished my pancakes with real Quebec maple syrup. I may be listening to the Tragically Hip later today as I raise my Maple Leaf flag and enjoy my first Canada Day as a Canadian citizen.
A local philanthropist erected this statue in downtown Edmonton a few years ago to commemorate the place where the first episodes of The Great White North were filmed.
Will there be a designated drop off location for those with handicapped plates/placards who cannot find available parking in the designated parking area? If so, where will it be located? I don't see mention of this on the map contained in the MaplewoodstockProgram.
I don't think anyone is going to hassle a mobility-challenged attendee for a minute or three near the Accessibility Parking area (#12 on our https://maplewoodstock.com/about/map/) to escort a family member or Uber customer out of the car onto the festival grounds -- steps away from the Two Towns canopy -- and then move off to park elsewhere.

Maybe we're not really supposed to know the status of Schrodinger's Mitch.

We are all in this together.

Q: How do you get ten Canadian guys to stay in a swimming pool forever?
A: Say "hey guys, Donald Trump wants you out of the pool".
