Get your Streetside Tan on!, originally uploaded by NiteMayr.
Hola London, just outside the King’s Diner you can get a wicked tan! Just ask this guy. If he is there later on I’ll ask him who he is and if I can interview him.
Hey, if you have the time and the impetus, you should do what you want if it isn’t hurting anyone.
My co-worker thought this guy might be homeless, but a close inspection reveals a PDA in his chair there and the chair itself seems a bit extraneous for a homeless guy to need for a nice suntan.
Maybe tomorrow we’ll stop and ask him a few questions if he is still out there.

Please enjoy this fanciful idea, a security camera that watches a single cloud that hovers above a tree in the distance.
Close Meat-ing, originally uploaded by NiteMayr.
This is not my roast, Jen made this fine repast. I don’t make my roast the same way she does, she’s a bit heavy on onions and lets the meat dry out a bit sometimes.
When I make a roast it’s a simple affair:
Defrost roast
Place roast in roasting vessel with a mixture of several cups of water, a few tablespoons of garlic powder, generous helpings of white and black pepper and a helping of generic steak spice.
Ensure that you drench the meat in said mixture and that said mixture is mixed into water. Turn meat “Fattiest side up” and generously coat with black and white pepper on fat.
If you are feeling adventurous, add instant coffee to the water, enough for two cups of coffee to your taste.
Start to heat the meat (covered) at 300 degrees in the center of your oven.
After about 2 hours remove from heat, increase oven temperature to 350 degrees. Replace any lost water and add 1/2 cup of vinegar.
Return vessel to oven and let cook, check meat after about 1 hour and ensure that it has not dried, add water as needed.
At the 3 and a half hour mark (since you started) add potatoes and vegetables. Cover with water and let cook. [Again, if you are into trying new things, add hot peppers and spiced vinegar]
Allow the water to boil down (until the vegetables are mostly uncovered) in vessel, meat should pull apart easily with fork.
When the meat is ready and potatoes are soft enough, pull from oven and serve.
The meat should be tender and moist, you may turn the leavings in the vessel into soup or gravy.
Fries and a Reuben, originally uploaded by NiteMayr.
When a political campaign takes to crapping all over the opposing camp, it’s termed “Going Negative” and when it is egregious and possibly slanderous, it’s “Ratfucking”
I’m not about to ratfuck the “Family Restaurant” on Wellington in London, but that is only because I might be forced to eat there again as part of the rodent coitus.
Let me start with the price, 8 bucks for frozen fries and a sandwich. Are you kidding me!?!?
The sandwich might cost about 3 bucks in materials if the meat and cheese are fancy. However, the cheese was “cheese food” – style swiss and the bread was barely rye. The meat was untenable and together with the lack of thousand island dressing made the whole sandwich part of the meal lackluster at best. I also burned my mouth due to the MOLTEN LAVA heat of the meat.
By the time I got to the frozen food product fries I wasn’t really able to enjoy them, due to my injured mouth and ended up just giving up on eating them. Which, if you know me is almost impossible for me to do.
For 8 bucks I expect to enjoy my food.
For 5 I can get a nice salad and the best Chicken Salad sandwich on earth at the King’s Cafe downtown london (near Galleria, next to the Brass Door). I recommend you avoid the “Family Restaurant” on Wellington, south of Grey Street North of Grand Avenue.
And that is Going Negative.
I’ve never found it difficult to put pen to paper when I have something to say. Inspiration moves me easily and I can just fire out the words until my ideas are spent. This comes in handy when I’m writing for fun or creating a knowledge-management entry or just documenting my work.
Converting the raw work into something I can sell, that has proven to be troublesome. It’s not the words that are failing me, it’s arranging them with pictures for a vanity work that is killing me. I sit down to it, fire up the software then get about 5 pages in and decide that I’m not getting anywhere, half because the picture system is so cumbersome and half because I lose the inspiration that got me there in the first place.
I’m using booksmart, has anyone had any experience with it? Is there a better system?
Have you ever made a vanity book?
That’s a big laugh, originally uploaded by NiteMayr.
See, it wasn’t murder, my mum is alive and well in this later picture.
Here she shares a big laugh at Judith’s expense.
I bet your Mum isn’t as big a laugh-er as mine is. I Bet.
it only “looks” like murder, originally uploaded by NiteMayr.
Over the Victoria Day weekend (May Two Four weekend for the kids) we attended a picnic in the Back Yard of family friends. Many burgers were masticated and some marshmallows were immolated.
Their back yard was so massive, it had a forest in it!
We sat around a fire and shivered, I was wearing a short-sleeved over-shirt and everyone had to ask me if I wanted a coat or blanket or something (as they were freezing). No way! I have at least 6 inches of blubber keeping me warm at all times.
We played boccie and ate and then moved on; thanks Laura and Shawn!

Of all the pointless crap, this is Canada you shower of assholes. No one in Canada needs to investigate anything in New York. Okay? The guys in the USA aren’t going to start doing what you want when you deface buildings in downtown London, Ontario, Canada!
(Yes I know that I’m giving publicity to it, but bear with me)
