Whales ... marvelous creatures

Freedom bomb

I had this idea once ... "freedom bomb." That was it. I wrote the words on the back of a movie ticket. It was Hot Fuzz, which I saw on May 1, 2007, at 6:55PM, at First Markham place. That's not important.

I googled "freedom bomb" now, a couple of years later, and this is what I found. My ideas aren't that unique. Neither am I, probably.

Chicks: death by plastic

These photos were taken by Chris Jordan at the Midway Atoll in the North Pacific. These are the remains of albatross chicks that were fed plastic by their parents until they died -- from starvation, poisoning and choking. I can't imagine the slow, horrible and confused death they must experience. The Midway Atoll, about 5,200 km from San Francisco and 4,100 km from Tokyo, is a National Wildlife Refuge, administered by the US Fish and Wildlife Service.

One day, we're going to pay for the horrors we're inflicting on the planet.

Thanksgiving weekend in Ottawa-Gatineau

Fall was definitely out in full bloom this Thanksgiving weekend in Ottawa-Gatineau ... and a hint of winter somewhere in the air. See more shots from this past weekend, here.

Queen West Art Crawl

Spent a little time last weekend out at Queen West, taking in a little of the Art Crawl after lunching at Fresh, where we had a totally healthy vegetarian lunch, that was wickedly overpriced.

The Beaches

A couple of photos I took back in the middle of summer, just hanging out at the Beaches. It's a great place for bumming around on the weekend. Lots of good, cheap places to eat, and to do some people watching.

I saw this photo, and the first thing that popped into my head: kid on the bottom right, Vladimir Putin, and behind him is Dmitry Medvedev. And the kid on the left ... Putin just wants the damn candy apple!
