There are several things I like about Vancouver International Airport. Among those things are: I’ve never had any trouble getting in or out of it. They have free WiFi (Minneapolis/St. Paul loses points for having Boingo). Check-in and security have always been quick. However, the thing I think I like the most is the way [...]

I flew out of Vancouver, today, right at noon. I was to fly to Minnesota (Minn-e-soooh-tah per the sitcoms… but I’ve never heard anybody say it that way), arriving, after adjusting for time zones, around 5:30 and then I’d catch a 7 p.m. flight to Columbus. As it happened, right around 6:15 the Minneapolis/St. Paul gate [...]
I mentioned in yesterday’s posting that Diane and I ran into Scott Foley in Vancouver. It was a rather informal encounter – so informal in fact that I doubt Scott’s mentioned it on his blog and he most likely lacks any knowledge whatsoever that it even happened. And I’m cool with that… it took me [...]
And a lot of them. Last Thursday I caught the 6:40 a.m. flight to Seattle. Diane, Granny and Big D picked me up at the airport and we drove to Sam’s Club. I texted Dave2 and invited him to join us for Sam’s Club hot dogs… he declined, saying something about it being a 3-hour [...]
It must have been last fall. I was at the auto parts store buying oil and was handed change for a twenty-dollar bill. Among the coins I received were a couple of quarters, a dime, some pennies and something I didn’t recognize. I thought the something I didn’t recognize might be a French centime piece. [...]
“What do you have there?” asked MikeO as he saw me at the vending machines, digging through a handful of change, “Chuck-E-Cheese tokens?” “No. It’s a bunch of Canadian coins. I left home this morning with a pocketful of coins that I didn’t realize were Canadian. They gum up our Coke machine. Can you turn [...]
So, there we were at the Indoor Pool in Surrey, British Columbia (Canada). It’s a nice pool, large, clean and it has a big kiddie pool as well as a hot tub. It doesn’t cost a fortune to get in and the children enjoy going there. It was probably around 9 p.m. or so and [...]
…right? The next time we put a Republican in the White House, we’ll be invading. Mind your P’s and Q’s Canada… and I don’t mean your Prince Edward Islands and Quebecs. Technorati Tags: Bakken Oil Field,Canada,North Dakota,Montana
Let’s suppose you were at an indoor pool in Canada and that you are an Asian male and wearing swimming trunks. (The only reason place and nationality are important as there may be some cultural things going on I’m unfamiliar with, what with me being an American person of English and/or German and/or Swiss descent [...]
Yesterday Today Yesterday Today Yesterday Today Yesterday it was 49F (9C) and sunny. Right now it’s 22F (-5C) and a bit snowy and blustery. Yesterday I was in British Columbia, not too far south from where the Winter Olympics are being held. Today I’m in Central Ohio. [...]
