there is only a very very small handful of people that can properly recondition a pair of antique tailors shears HUUUHE thanks to Jaco for doing this for me out of his own time and paid for these first out of trust.
can you believe this pair is almost 100 years old?! the one behind it is what it should look like now.
just a feel good story, & jaco is a stand-up dude even when sitting or laying down
thomas pretty sure i said it before, but congrats again on the major accomplishment after all you & your family have been through this year, say hi to shoreman for me when you cross the border.

I will be getting my PhD some time in November most likely!
Also, I got a job offer in Kanata, Canada (outside Ottawa), and I am taking it.
I have only ever been to Canada before for the interview, so I know nothing about it. I am moving there around October 15th. Suggestions and information is appreciated!
Congrats on your accomplishments and new job.
Ottawa is the capital city of Canada. It is a city with 2 official languages (English and French). Kanata is the high tech hub of Ottawa, it is about 20-30 KM away from downtown Ottawa. Never been to Kanata myself, but if you are in Ottawa, be sure to visit the Parliament Buildings, skate along the Rideau Canal in Winter (the largest outdoor skating "rink" in the world I think), visit the Byward market, Royal Canadian Mint, Canadian Museum of Civilization. Tulip Festival in spring. They have a Winter Carnival (Winterlude) each year (in the French speaking side… Gatineau). Shopping is a bit boring, as the stores close early everyday. Can always go to Montreal (1-2 hrs drive) or Quebec (3 hrs drive) or to Toronto (5-6 hrs drive I think). Good place to work and raise a family ;D. People are friendly. It will be chilly in October, so pack/shop for warmer clothes and prepare for long Winter.

I remember! Great festival and a great time!

Whatever happened to the black jungle cloth pants that were supposed to come out this summer?
Suppose that's more of a random question than a random announcement. Sorry…

Very small children are exceedingly cute so that their parents don't strangle them for being such inordinate pains in the ass.
Chris, you can't possibly be referring to your gorgeous baby daughter Caroline, so presume it's the naughty little lad? (Boys will be boys).

@Madame:

Actually, yes, I am. She's teething and has become extremely temperamental and high maintenance. I'd be happy to let you have her for a while if you'd like. Benjamin is rather awesome, on the other hand. Julie and I agree that he's currently our favorite.
