Sometimes stories just fall into your lap.   Like today.  I had to be in court at 10 am., but prior to that I had to take my wife and sister to the airport to catch a flight.  The event was such a comedy that I posted it on the Tim Horton Facebook site.   Here is the abbreviated story.....


My sister and wife have loved the coffee for years. I thought they were exaggerating until today when they were travelling from Toronto to Fort Lauderdale via Pearson Airport. Their flight was leaving at 8:50 am. I called them at 8:40 and found out that they were enjoying a coffee at the Tim Horton outlet at the Airport. They obviously missed the plane.

After being on stand by and ending up in Miami their only comment was:

Tim Horton's coffee is so good it is worth missing a flight for.

go figure.
 

Feb. 6

Ok  -- it has been almost 2 months since my last post  -- but it's not like I am being paid to put my inane remarks to paper.  Besides, December and January are always busy with wonderful things to do or not to do.  February on the other hand.....

Anyway, I have been crazy busy and the next few months will be even crazier.  Besides sojurns to Banff, Halifax, Havana, Washington and Boston, there are a couple of "meetings, conferences, or talks" that I am involved in. 

And then there is continuing education programs.  I attended one yesterday through a webinar.  It was involving fraud including internet issues.  Some miscreant must have been attending because about two hours after the programme ended I was hacked, hacked and hacked some more.  What a mess.

And finally, I am really working on my new list "the "f" list which rhymes with bucket list"  --  so far it involves downhill skiing, snowshoeing, dieting and making sure that I do not adher to the adage -- if it smells good, tastes good and looks good then it is not good for you.  I prefer relying on my favourite cooked vegetable  -- french fries -- and if I want all the food groups I just make it an order of poutines.

---  and to the person who visited my site 24 times in one day  --  I really hope you found what you were looking for   ;-)))))

all the best
