Creepy as ever

Was pleased to see that the Elgin Street Irregulars still have the monopoly on creepiness.

Google Poem: Might as well believe it

it's hard to believe we haven't lived here longer
it's hard to believe that 25% of the American public doesn't know the earth goes around the sun
Until battery technology sees a massive breakthrough, it's hard to believe in any of these solutions

it's hard to believe that another year has come and gone so fast
Boxy shorts, boy's polos, long baggy skirts... it's hard to believe they were once the uniform of women golfers
it's hard to believe it's been almost a year since I was on my FlyLady kick
it's hard to believe that something that takes weeks of preparation is gone in a blink of an eye

it's hard to believe that this year marks my entrance into a third decade of life
it's hard to believe, but Illinoisans can begin voting via absentee ballot today
it's hard to believe this year is almost over
it's hard to believe that something like this is not considered a public safety hazard

it's hard to believe this isn't a cruel dream

Warning to a friend

This may be a good time to stay close to Elgin Street, Coyote. It looks like City Councilor Doug Thompson has a contract out on you. Even if the experts don't think you're necessarily to blame. From the CBC:

Ottawa hires trappers to catch pet-eating coyotes

The City of Ottawa has hired trappers to capture coyotes after reports that family pets were being eaten by wild animals in rural outskirts....

But Gary Fischer, one of three trappers hired by the city, said there have been only two confirmed cases of pets being killed by coyotes in the area and he's not convinced coyotes are to blame for the other disappearances.

"I've seen cats taken right out of a field by a hawk," he said Thursday. "There are other wildlife issues here other than just the coyotes." [full story]
