Thanksgiving

Technically, its not that time of year, but, because the recent pleasant surprises in my life owe to the actions of others, this seems like an appropriate time to give thanks. Specifically, I would like to thank:
- Sarah Marchildon, for including me as a link on the list of blogs that she reads. I don't know her, but I like reading her blog. In fact, her blog was one of my sources of inspiration for getting the observatori going.

- Sebastian, a random stranger, who just happened to mistake me for someone else, and just happened to speak french, and just happened to have some free time. Thanks for taking the time to help me practice my french!
- the old security guy at the Clapton concert (who went to all of the trouble of kicking us out of our stolen seats only to find he would be faced with doing the same to the people that had stolen our seats) for letting us keep our beer. - Myke at Velo City Bicycles for sending me a sneak peek at my new bike. It's still winter here, apparently, so it's nice to have something to day dream about.
