    When the big moon shines in the Maritimes,

    I'll be glad to be back to old Halifax and the girl that I adore.

    Quite well, thank you for asking. Lee didn't hit us very hard, some downed electrical lines and trees but nothing compared to Fiona or Dorian. I think southern NS got hit harder but nothing too scary.

    This looks like half of city owned buildings I've been in. Their phones/internet are
    down. And this is what you'd see. Add a wasps nest or fire ants to the mix as well.
    Rats chewing cables also pretty common. The critters at the CSI unit ate cable
    like crazy. Be prepared to stomp stuff in the IT closet.

    yeah, if I tried that now, my front wheel would hang up, thus kicking off that slow motion wreckery feeling - "ah man, I knew this was gonna happen... why is time slowing? what kind of injury am I going to have after this? can I roll it out? Shelley B. sure looked good in Science today... ARRRGHT!!!"

    and then you jump up real quick just to prove to yourself that you're not seriously injured. I think they call this shock, but I'm not sure.

    Got a good chuckle at that.

    Also, not sure I'd have anything less desirable than a PT Cruiser to trade for.
