"There's a rainbow in Toronto..."

For those who don't know, this SCTV sketch was parodying "Going Down the Road."

I never did see all of "Dead Like Me" during its original run, so I've gone back to it.

Time for me to dig up the original animated feature, I guess.

Went back for the single season of the live action "Cowboy Bebop"and lamenting that it didn't get more.

I just didn't say why it's one of my favourite shows ;)

"Fringe" is one of my favourite shows. The last season goes off the rails a bit, but the whole thing is a fun ride. Got the boxed set ;)

I can't find any evidence of it but the odds are that he was under administrative suspension while awaiting trial, so wouldn't have had a license to surrender. Feels immortal, like so many younger people, so he won't stop until stopped. Look up The Belltown Hellcat sometime.

Overcrowding due to underfunding.

If you haven't yet watched "Law & Order: Criminal Intent Toronto", give it a go. Plenty of local Toronto landmarks and despite them always saying "not based on actual events" most of the stories are at least inspired by actual events, just as with the original. Trivia: Jill Hennessy is a...

This ticket was recently cancelled, in Florida, just two days before it went to trial. I'd have been wanting sanctions after being made to show up in court, to fight this sort of idiocy.

Our system is currently geared towards the vast majority of people who learn after making their first bad choice and don't re-offend. We need to add provisions for the "frequent fliers" who choose to do wrong, not rejig the system to think that everyone is a recidivist. That would also require...

We definitely need revisions to how our system deals with chronic repeat offenders, who know that they can weaponize the system in their defence.

I've watched "Farscape" and "the Peacekeeper Wars" all the way through perhaps 6 times. Better every time.

Yup, definitely derailed it. As is usual this will likely result in a conviction for "turn not in safety" or "disobey sign", followed by a severe drubbing by their insurance. The last is the real punishment.

Here's the bad news: The careless charge likely won't stick.

Weird. Heard him fire up the bike and went over to give him the suit, and got a "thanks but no thanks.." When I posted he was happy to get it. Free Tourmaster modular mesh gear set with the original armour, rain liner, and cold weather liner all in virtual pristine condition. Maybe the hiviz...

Neighbour guy who seems to be a relatively new rider. I think my old mesh gear would be better than the T-shirt or hoodie he's been wearing, so washing it to hand over. Pretty close to my size.

On the other hand I enjoyed it, though felt it was a rather predictable set of outcomes.

Not their case, so I'm thinking that he'll defer to, "That's an internal employment issue."
