  • RT @rebeccacoleman: @carouseltheatre wins outstanding production for young audiences with "A Year With Frog and Toad." #jessies10 #
  • Yay @LeftCoastMama FTF'd that geocache that was, erm, towed on us yesterday. I'm sure cachers have had cars towed before but caches? GC2AD5A #
  • RT @BCLiberalCaucus: Now that's just cool. Want to see Capilano Bridge take a step to the left? VIDEO: http://ow.ly/21O4e #

  • Uh-oh. Tornado watches issued for Calgary + environs http://bit.ly/bdWm6g #yyc Stay safe! #
  • Trying not to think about 5 yr old or mother (+ dad) in #YYC involved in LRT accident. Failing miserably. #HugYourKids #

  • Polio, of course, is incurable. And awful. And preventable. "The threat of polio is no longer simply theoretical." #TheStupidItBurns #
  • In Ontario, immunization rates are comparable to immunization in Tajikistan, where a polio epidemic is occuring. #TheStupidItBurns #
  • So Reena Virk's killer Warren Glowatski is released on parole, but several-times convicted co-conspirator Kelly Ellard not yet sentenced? #

  • Hour-long monotone webinar makes Anthony verrry sleeepy #
  • Dear lawyer currently being interviewed by @CBCStephenQuinn : Renters are "a different milieu", huh? Get stuffed. I mean seriously? Asshat. #
  • Giving housing costs in Vancouver no one w/o major equity can afford to buy. Average housing cost north of $750k. Asshat. #
  • I found @alexishinde's morning folks. Car honked at me for coming to a stop. At a stop sign. Run off the road by pack of road racers on … #
  • wrong side of road. Hipster on bike, no helmet, weaving back and forth TEXTING. Lady on bike, no helmet, going wrong way through roundabout #
  • All this in 5 blocks on Off-Broadway bike route, coming home. Maybe I'm too uptight. Is that it? #
  • According to the 2006 census, 52% of dwellings in Vancouver were rented. For lawyer Baynam to suggest renters are a diff *class* is ignorant #

  • I don't do #FollowFriday But let me say that @EatsShootsEdits is one of the most courageous and inspirational folks out there. Just sayin' #
  • School closures in Vancouver: Many kneejerk complaints that *their* school shouldn't be closed. Reflects "Me first, screw you" attitude here #
  • Toronto or Afghanistan? This is how the CBC is dressing its camera operators today http://twitpic.com/1zwmom #cbcg20 #
  • Utterly unable to concentrate today, which is unfortunate b/c today's the first in ages that I've had time to do *real* work. #
  • Toronto G8/G20 protest size? ~2000. Lots of riot police, etc. Vancouver critical mass ride size? ~2000 (?) Size of police presence? Dozen? #
  • RT @gregeh: @AnthonyFloyd ~1300 and maybe 20 for june YVR CM. Point valid. #
  • Upside to critical mass ride tonight? *My* ride home will encounter only cyclists wearing helmets acting responsibly. #
  • Ride home summary: Not all the boneheads went to critical mass. To their credit, though, they were protecting both brain cells with helmets. #
  • Frakkin' BSG miniseries marathon tonight. Oh yeah. #
  • Does anyone know if Caprica got picked up for a second season — and if so, when does it start in Canada? #
  • RT @polarisdotca: Spectac ISS flyover #YVR tonight. Look W at 11:44p (just above Saturn). Station goes overhead, sets in E at 11:50p. #

  • Wow, *really* bright over-head ISS pass, whizzing by 360 km above. Thanks @polarisdotca for heads-up! #
  • 1 week to @geowoodstock! Drop by the @BCGeocaching table between 12-12:30 to meet @LeftCoastMama and I (Team LeftCoastFloyds) #
  • Independent toddler is independent #
  • RT @alexishinde: 80s music playing, of course. Highlight of this morning: The Imp singing along with "Won't you take me to… monkeytown?" #

  • This precedent is not good. #
  • RT @unambig: Uhoh, now the police car is on fire: http://twitpic.com/207lxz #g20 [Sigh] #
  • It's going to be great hearing the spin about how the Toronto police "provoked" the protesters into burning police cars #asshats #
  • I wonder how many CPC members infiltrated Black Block in order to cause problems + justify the security costs? #tinfoilhat #g20 #notreally #
  • RT @stephen_taylor: "I condemn violent protest at the G20" Retweet if you do. #
  • RT @chrislabossiere: Clear link between burning police cars & ending poverty. Maybe punch an old lady too to stop global warming. #G20 #
  • I don't understand. How can there be an extra 31 minutes added on to a #worldcup game? Arbitrarily? #
  • Don't often agree w/ Normal Spector, but he's right: way to deal w/ violent protestors is ostracization by the left: http://bit.ly/aLOrrc #
  • Masked protest? Sure sign of cowardice. Conformity of non-conformists. Leads to mob mentality as individuality is lost. Asshatry abounds. #
  • RT @ShireenJ: Another reason not ready to lead Canada. RT @anndouglas: Liberal Party said it does not comment on events as they unfold. #
  • Really #LPC No comment on violence in the streets of Canada's biggest city? Not only a #LeadershipFail but also a #SocialFail #

  • RT @mikeminer: hell of a thing to have a cop waving a baton at you while you're trying to tweet #g20 #

  • I want a girl with a short skirt and a looooooong …. scarf. (A's version of a Cake song) Ah, @thepeak plays great songs :) #

  • Or, if it's *really* important, call me back. If the same # calls twice, I'll answer it. #IHatePhoneSpam #
  • There's more than a little solidarity in ignoring unknown phone calls it seems. Next step will be to ditch the home phone completely. #
  • Hey YVR-ish dads: We need a Tweet-up! How about the Confederation Park trains on July 10th? #

  • And before anyone thinks I'm all holier-than-thou, there are a number of stop signs I blow daily. Only if I'm the only one at the intersxn. #
  • The difference is that I ride _very_ defensively and always check for traffic, even when I have right-of-way. Many don't, ever. #
