Why Ithaca Is Better Than Athens - #1

For starters...

Lansing, NY 2007

• No big-ass wanna-be metropolis (Atlanta) an hour away filled with ignorant folk
• Student population not consisting primarily of progeny from ignorant folk that live in a metropolis only an hour away
  
• Only four (4) hours from New York City
• I hear there is a college town which keeps the students annexed from downtown
  
• The lakes!
• Home of Carl Sagan, Rod Serling and many others.
  

I shall append this in time.

Not too much has been going on with me, so I figured I'd post of a picture of me smoking a pipe without pants.

Brighton, represent.

[Okay, this is from the UK, but still...]

Hell, Yes.

What a day...

Movers finally showed up with my stuff after a delay in customs. Getting office set up finally.

Cable guy is here setting us up with PVRs finally. Third time is a charm as they blew off the last two house calls.

Ordered a Dell M2010 system today and am quite psyched about getting it.  Delivery won't be for a few more weeks, evidently. The system is a trip.

Oh, and it's snowing!

Happy Holidays

Happy holidays!

So Canada celebrates Boxing Day, which I had never heard of. Very cool. Happy holidays, people.

Smokes

Smokes

I haven't quit smoking just yet. I am getting mentally prepared for such a commitment, or that is what I am telling myself. The price for my usual brand (Camel Filters) is about CDN $10.00 which is insane. I was smoking a packs a day last month and am down to a couple of pack a week. 

Last week a local told me I can buy smokes much more cheaply at the nearby Ojibwa
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ojibwa] first nation reservation. I now have about 20 packs for the next few months for CDN $15.00. That's quite a bit. I don't think I was exploiting these native peoples but it sure felt like it at first.

Girl, You Know It's True

Absorbing New Digs

Here's my new digs in Canada, if curious. Cute little house, no? There is a creek in the backyard and a walking path which has many black squirrels doing squirrelly things.

Below is a boring photo of a boat launch for Lake Ontario which is only a quarter mile up the road. There's park benches at a "parkette" down the road as well.

I'm really digging this place thus far.

I Am Frylock

A friend (whom I did not know was a fan of ATHF) sent me this pic of Frylock and yours truly. I will never watch the show the same way again.
