Saturday In The Park ... Queen's Park

The Blogger App Is A Colossal Piece Of Shit
sigh ... can't work with pictures the way I'm accustomed to do so in a browser window, crashes whenever I try to delete a picture link that I just inserted, and it appears to have lost the draft I had written about this.
I thought I'd try using the app so I could post whenever something crosses my mind, in an effort to update more frequently.  But this end user experience is fucking ridiculous.   I think the way around it is I just post text content, and add pix later.  yay retcon.


Time Is A Flat Circle In A Bottle Of The Season

Exhibitionismings
Went to The Ex on Sunday.  wheee!

I learned something at The Ex <cue Kyle's soft piano music>  fuck all the Ribfests - #greenwoodsmokehouseFATMFW!
Only 4 vendors at the CNE's Ribfest, and business was slooooooow.  Had pork ribs from one place, beef ribs from a second place, and tried a pork rib from a third place.  Nothing I had was even as good as Baton Rouge - oh snap!  The smokehouse ribs at 3030 Dundas West kicks Baton Rouge's ass.  And Greenwood Smokehouse is the Godzilla to everyone else's Tokyo!


Good Idea ... the Midway.
Bad Idea ... Lobster Concession on The Midway
The End.
(I didn't eat at the lobster concession ... so it's not like I have first hand evidence that it's a bad idea)


In a WTF moment, one of the items that seemed to be all the rage this year are vibration platform exercise machines ... I saw at least 4 different vendors selling them.  Think of them as a motorized Wii Balance Board that vibrates left and right between 20 and 50 times per second, apparently developed by the Russian Space Program and adopted by NASA ... just ... WTF.
(there's little research on the subject, but for the record, maybe it's not all bullshit ... , but that's a far cry from the miracle fitness tool it's being touted as).
