Ron Moeser, usually a Ford vote, puts his name behind Sheppard LRT.
Wow, didn't know this was coming, but haven't been into the place for a few weeks. I'll check it out today.

I was in there like two days ago and didn't see any sign of this happening.
(Or was it last week? I never remember.)At first I was shell-shocked by a this pro-LRT article in the Sun, until I saw who the author was.

Oh shit! Must check this out. So glad the stairs are gone. A & C Games needs a bigger location too.

I'm beginning to think the pro-subway councillors and advocates are also paying credit card debt with other credit cards. I've been willing to hear Ford out if he had an actual plan, but his Field of Dreams plan is absolutely the funniest and saddest thing he's ever come up with.
Dear lord the comments...
Check American Airlines. I recently booked 2 round trip tickets from Pearson to JFK for $400 total for a summer trip for me and the wife. I couldn't believe the price. I have a friend who flew Porter to New York around Christmas during one of the 50% off deals and it was still $750 for two tickets.

Thanks for the tip. I'll take a look.

For free wifi, they've suited my purposes just fine.
Interesting article from Blogto stating that if taxes and tolls are on the table, we should stop talking about the sheppard extension and talk about a downtown relief line instead.

City was so weird today. Downtown, it was like the middle of May, low 20s and lovely. As the streetcar heads out toward Roncesvalles, the fog sets in and by the time you're going by High Park, you can't see more than thirty feet in any direction and it feels like you're at the coast.
Husband said it was super foggy downtown when he was walking to work this morning.

We couldn't see the building across the street this morning in Scarborough. The fog's been very thick here the past few days.
Haha, the hell if I'm going to pay for good wifi if I'm already a customer in the place. But yeah, I suppose it gets the job done in a clutch. I'm trying to upload some photos to FB, send/receive emails, have about 3 tabs open in a browser and occasionally follow a link to a YouTube vid. That's just way too much to handle for the bandwidth I guess, which sucks because I really like getting out of the house to work here with coffee on my days off.
Upload speeds on most of those shared connections are going to be terrible. For just basic web browsing and chatting, it should do fine though. Just leave the heavy lifting like uploading large photos at home.

Weather was gross today. I got on the bus while it was foggy and cold, but the temperature shot up 17 degrees when the sun rose and I was stuck walking around with my jacket and sweater in hand. Is it too much to ask for constant 10-15 degree weather?

Sure, it's all yours. In North Carolina.

I'm loving the weather, its phenomenal. 27 degrees tomorrow, bring it on
I guess the 'no stairs' is an improvement. I'll be excited to see how the new Game Centre looks in the end. I don't like how they're double stacking DS games now, even if the ones on the bottom are generally terrible. I do wish the store would carry a wider (they barely have any) selection of toys, plushies and imported goodies. But for standard gaming, still the best value in the city.
Now if only A&C Games could move into some place half as big.

I'm gonna go streaking tomorrow
I need to know where so I can avoid the area.
I'm only enjoying this weather for the fact that I've been on my bike every night since it was warm enough, training for my huge ride in June. Otherwise, it can stay cold
My only problem with it is that there isn't any shade on my bike route up to school yet. No leaves.

.....game centre had stairs? i've shopped there for years and never noticed. what was up there?
In the store itself, there was that step down along the DVD wall. I had to think about it at first too when Roto mentioned 'stairs'.

ooooooooh okay. makes sense.
I live right next to "the quad" with two big windows facing it, so I hope that you are speaking of some other quad, sir.
Big council meeting today regarding transit plans too, and the vote later.
