Cape Crusading

Hit up Cape Breton with Sarah on the weekend and did the Cabot Trail.  Beautiful few days and beautiful sites!

We left on Friday to go stay at Sarah's pal Jana's parents up near Sydney.  About a 4 to 5 hour drive. We followed her up there with a 2 car CONVOY!  Jana and her guy Chris in car 1.  Karl, Sarah and her other pal Brett in the Ford Edge (a rental upgrade).

When we got there it was late and Jana along with her parents were so friggen' nice and hospitable throughout the whole weekend.

On Saturday morning, Sarah, Brett and I drove along the Cabot Trail.  Amazingly warm and sunny day.  Came close to some moose on the walking part.  Then it got dark on us quickly while we were still sight seeing.  Enough talk.  Pictures below.

Coast of His Smile


Had a wicked birthday on Sunday!!  While it rained heavily outside I was spoiled rotten on the inside.  Did get super soaked on a short walk to the LC with Sarah while we thought mother nature was letting up a bit.  But it was all in good fun. 


The sun came out yesterday and turned into a pretty nice day.  Didn't get out though until the evening but had a nice walkaroo.  It was really nice and calm.

While I'm at the Rents

So I've had a crazy week in terms of work and late nights.  Side story: My parents think it's shameful to sleep passed 8:30 even on the weekend.  If I had been in a concentration camp and I had been forced to not sleep as part of my torture, this would go right over my parents heads.  Well at least they've softened a bit in the last few years.  So when I was going to bed the other morning I left a note in the kitchen so they wouldn't try and wake me up or make me feel like my life is a disgrace when I did wake up.  Looks like the message got through.


Seem's like a slight pun encouraging me to continue catching Z's.  Didn't matter though.  Still woke up at 9.  Old shaming habits die hard.

Karl's Kell 2 Kill'd


The Jon Voight phone is no more.  Well in 30 days.  Been trying to kill off this branch of the lying and deceptive Solo Mobile tree for the last little while.  Love when you are committed to ending something but the customer service person thinks you are haggling and wont take no for an answer by offering deal after deal.  Sharp contrast from a couple of months ago when I found out Solo was billing me for a number associated with a phone I didn't even have anymore.  I told them I was leaving to try and get a deal or some money back and they basically were saying "Ya right!" with their so called Sorries.

Anyway doesn't matter since the multi-headed monster always wins out in the end.

Behind Enemy Lines

This is a little late as a post.  Anyway, I was collaborating with the enemy a couple of months ago.  I was mucking around and playing with the Impact logo and sent them my version before they released their own.  I was using the new logos of Juventus and Shakhtar as inspirado since I like the clean modern look they both possess.

I didn't really have specific symbolism to work with as their wasn't any in their old logo other then their Nascar fleur de lis and the colour blue. 

Here is the evolution of the Logo as it appears in my mind.  

Their New One

My Version (One of a couple colour combos)

Their old "90's style" logo

C'est la vie!
