This is an excellent animation of the bus, streetcar and subway routes and how many are running throughout a day.

Life explained in Spider Solitaire
Posted by Andrew on May 11, 2009 in Misc
I found this today and just had to add to my site. It’s an amazing look at life:
Everything I need to know about life I learned by playing Spider Solitaire
1. So much just depends on the cards you’re dealt.
2. However, it’s next to impossible to win without taking risks.
3. And if you’re not alert and paying attention, you’re just going through the motions and tiring out your mousing finger for no good reason.
4. You have to think ahead.
5. Sometimes – but not always – you can undo the mess you made.
6. Sometimes walking away from a difficult hand and then coming back with a fresh perspective and/or a good night’s sleep can make all the difference.
7. When you think you’re surely about to lose, some innovative, creative moves along with a good dose of persistence can actually clear things up dramatically.
8. Getting a good start is crucial.
9. Sometimes it’s good to just admit defeat and start all over again.
10. Whenever possible, don’t do anything that dramatically limits your options.
11. Always remember the object (goals) of the game.
12. Sometimes just the right card will come at just the right moment – but you just can’t plan on it.
13. Sometimes what lays underneath is far more valuable than what’s on the surface.

An amazing time-lapse film using a tilt-shift lens to get interesting perspectives.

Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock
Posted by Andrew on Apr 16, 2009 in Misc
I’m a fan of the TV show Big Bang Theory which had an alternate version of Rock Paper Scissors game this season. They called it Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock. Today I found a t-shirt on cafepress which has the hand signs for this variation.
Toronto Island

I spent the afternoon walking around Toronto Island, enjoying the weather and snapping some photos. It was deserted there today, and I enjoying the piece and quiet. Here’s a photo of one of the many unique houses on the island. It certainly would be an interesting place to live!
Here is a bicycle, where the front passenger seat is on springs!
