I haven’t been too involved with politics lately — local or otherwise — as I’ve been quite busy with technology projects, and I’m liking it that way. However, I have been informed of the Simcoe County Transportation Master Plan Update: Public Survey for Phase 1 Public Consultation, and as a topic I consider important, I… Continue reading PSA: Transportation in Simcoe County

Exposed! And a Target?
Apparently not noticing one’s furnace isn’t working can lead to health issues. So, two days ago I realized that the furnace in the house where I live was not working. This was because the temperature had been slowly dropping for some time, and I realized that turning up the temperature (assuming drafts and such) did… Continue reading Exposed! And a Target?
PSA: Northern Aspirations
The municipalities of North Simcoe have a Community Safety and Well-Being Plan Survey currently active (as of 2021-02-23). I highly recommend that if you live in or near Midland, Penetanguishine, Tiny or Tay that you participate in the survey. This is the easiest way to get your input to the municipalities, and seems to be… Continue reading PSA: Northern Aspirations
If You Don’t Talk, They Won’t Listen
The Government of Ontario has quite a number of surveys (and in some cases other participation opportunities) occurring that are currently open and that’s even without the constant comments periods on proposed changes or additions to regulations. You only have a chance of being heard by these official processes if you participate in them, so… Continue reading If You Don’t Talk, They Won’t Listen
Poor Man’s Pancakes
Many, even in my own country of Canada, might think that homemade pancakes every morning would be a dream come true, but after two and half weeks, I’m glad I have more variety again! It’s not just because I was making the pancakes for myself, alone during a pandemic, or that for the last few… Continue reading Poor Man’s Pancakes
Today the World Will Be a Little Better — We Need That!
Today is Donald Trump’s last day as the president of the United States, and the first day of their incoming president who at least speaks of unifying the country. The US, for better or worse, is a major influence on the world, and most especially on my own country, Canada (sharing a rather long border,… Continue reading Today the World Will Be a Little Better — We Need That!
T -2 And Personal Reset
No it’s not the ‘big red button’! T -2 means out reality is going to get a bit of reset toward sanity, normalcy, and cooperation. My goal is to also use this opportunity for a ‘personal reset’. I mentioned that I had wrapped up all my projects. Well, I’ve also started the process of rebuilding… Continue reading T -2 And Personal Reset
Fixing a Post and It’s T -3
I must have fallen asleep between starting and finishing my Covid Cut Day 21 post since I posted on Jan 12 that it was T -9 to Biden’s inauguration and then end of Trump’s presidency. I’ve now corrected that to T -8. Today is five days after that error, which means there are three days… Continue reading Fixing a Post and It’s T -3
Covid Cut Day 21, T -8 and an Epoch Fail
It’s been a busy five days since I last posted, but first: after three weeks my covid desperation self-cut is looking like it could use a bit of work!
A Question That Frightens
How much damage can Trump do in the thirteen days that remain in his term? Barring a 25th amendment removal or an impeachment the current President of the United States (Donald Trump) has ‘only’ thirteen days left as president. Supposedly this is to be used for an orderly transition to the incoming president (Joe Biden),… Continue reading A Question That Frightens
