On the walk home last Friday, we happened upon this bike, locked to a street sign post on the sidewalk in front of some random house.
Attached to the cross bar was a yellow notice, warning the owners of the house that the bike would be taken away if they did not remove it from the post. I just think it's funny; I bet the owners of the house didn't even know the bike was there!
And I love how the bike is described as "red", but really, it was more of a "rust" colour. I bet the owner's of the house were grateful that the city took the bike away.
Anyways- I've always wondered what happened to your bike if you forgot where you locked it up... now I know!
I'm sure you've all heard about the craziness that went on yesterday afternoon at King West Opticians. I found out about it on the streetcar home from work last night- the cars were being diverted up to Queen and when someone asked why, the non-driving TTC employee said there was a hostage situation! I couldn't tell if he was joking or not, but there certainly was a lot of hoopla going on at the corner of King and Shaw.
Well, we all know that the owner of King West Opticians went crazy on CityTV's Mr. Silverman, and was not-so-promptly arrested. I just kept thinking, "Was it really worth it?" To get so angry, and to have such consequences... did it feel that good to blow off steam (and throw some snowballs- how old are we, anyway?), to make being charged with assault and losing your business worth it?
But now I'm not so sure he's going out of business... look what I got in the mail today!
Look at what I did! How cute am I when I'm covered in a delicious candy coating!?! Melt in your mouth goodness! I choose to be a brown M&M, cuz honestly, they're my favourite. Something about the colour brown makes them taste even more chocolaty!
You can morph yourself into an M&M, too, if you want... click the following link: http://www.becomeanmm.com
There's a new show on the CW based on this young adult sci-fi - I enjoy the show and couldn't pass up the opportunity to learn more about the characters.
