Walking home from work

In visual form, here is one thing that pissed me off on the walk home, and three things that didn't.

New Gaybortion: It's not violence. It's pest control.

And photos of more uplifting things:

Never let it be said that I don't appreciate good advertising.

Cheers to an anonymous comrade. I was going to fix this ad, but she got to it first.

Finally, I saw this guy. I know some of you live in less urban areas and see these guys all the time, but to spot a red-tailed hawk (I think that's what this dude is) at Bathurst and Dundas is kind of a big deal.

Nice hawk. We have a good number around here, but it's still good to see them.

Hey, I regret not being aborted. Is there help for me too?

I've not seen any hawks in these here parts lately, but we did spot an eagle once. Is falconeering wrong? They always look so cool in the movies.

We get hawks in our courtyard at work. We had quite a show a while back when we got to see a hawk tear apart a pigeon. Besides being brutal, they're rather beautiful. We have parrots in the city! I see them once in a while.

Saw lots this weekend too out on the coast. And seals and Snowy egrets and elk and deer, and pelicans. :)

When me and the Committee were heading toward Toronto, a hawk winged ridiculously close to the car, swooping just feet in front of the bumper. It startled me a little.

When I was a kid, in the 70s, there didn't seem to be any birds of prey in Metro Detroit. But now it's not unusual to see several different kinds. Hawks are regular visitors to our backyard.

There's a red-tailed hawk that lives around here. It nests on the RBU campus, and I think it might have a name, but I don't know the name. babble babble

here is a picture - unfortunately he's just a dot

We have them here in Kentucky too - red tailed hawks, I mean. Once, a huge one landed in the campus courtyard to devour a squirrel it had killed. It was at least three feet tall, if my memory isn't magnifying things - the hawk, I mean. It was breathing heavily and hostilely eying the crowd of stupid students gathering around it while it was trying to eat. They are not all that common on campus which is why we have had albino squirrels on campus for ages.

I commented on your comment.

I can't believe George Bush is doing ads to promote laziness and weakness of the mind, these days. Does he *really* need to supplement his income?

How *do* you help someone who regrets her abortion? Isn't it an irreversible process? I'm confused.
