1827 Winnebago War

Shit wasn't pretty.

I have my doubts about some of those listed major wars (cold war?!?). We should honor more of our military members prior to sporting events. Just say thank you people.

Someone post Canada's list.

1868 - Sucker punched an eskimo when he wasn't looking

Yeah but the bastard stole my bike.

I keep seeing this at the top of the page whenever I come here.

I appreciate the person's obvious enthusiam for our delightful dwarf planet however I can't help but note that it says Pluto is red - with an exclamation mark - directly under a pic of Pluto which is not red.

It's just not red. It's not. Like, my car is red. Do you think if Pluto was in front of my car, you might miss it due to blending in?

I guarantee no.


That is all.

It's a reddish tan kind of thing.

That is a good burgundy car.

That tree in front of my car is gone now. They chopped 'er down this month.

The good news is it improves my view. The bad news is the view in that direction is nothing special. There's an apartment building across the way and then the bacon store a little further on.

I guess the other bad news is a tree is gone. Trees are nice. I understand some people in my building are quite upset about the demise of the tree. The super has had to listen to some lamenting. But it had to come down. It had squirrel AIDS or something.

No lamenting from me. I like trees - but frankly I moved on two and a half seconds after learning it was coming down.

Call me callous but this is Canada. There are more trees.

 

[Matty]

Trees. Not quite an issue yet at Matty's.

 

[Mudcat]

I was curious how many trees there are in Canada so I googled it.

Nothing but wise-ass answers available that I can see.

More than China I bet.

 

[FairWarning]

Half of my trees have to come down thanks to the ash borer.

Like the view, Matty.

I hope Dubai is making plans for life after people don't care about oil any more.

Google has a new logo.

 

[Matty]

Woah.

I like it. It's all round and shit. Looks like letters straight out of Sesame Street.

 

[Mudcat]

The old one was pretty crap. I respect what google has done as an entity but who uses that font?

 

[roguejuror]

It was good until the end when that finger tip the e. Fok that.
