While making decorations for a shower, we were tossing our paper scraps into a bowl.

Penny stopped in Canada
There are no more pennies being produced in Canada.
So Sheldon is going to have to round up to a nickel.

What is a good life?
What is a good life?
Is it its length or its authenticity and valour that make it rich and worthwhile?
Is it fame and money and fortune and political prowess that make it good?
To me, it is simply a good deed and a gracious action.
It is truth and friendship and failure and triumph.
It is making wrong turns and righting them.
It is starting over and it is ending without a struggle.
Is is everything decent in this world.

Flags of the World
There is a house here in London Ontario
(aka Canada's London)
... that displays a different world flag almost every day!
I try to guess the flags,
before I look at the sign in the window.
The sign tells you the country.
To the home-owner near Victoria and Maitland streets, I say thank you!
