Waiting in Montreal

Why do airports put the bathroom smack in the middle of the longest moving sidewalks? Couldn’t they have put it before or after? Genius. This airport stinks. I got off from a Canadian Air flight from Ottawa, but still had to go through customs in an incredibly long line. And no directions for people that don’t have bags to check. Lame.

And why isn’t Google maps not working from the airport wireless? Wait a minute, or Google Adwords??

Ottawa’s spring has sprung

At least that’s what the local morning talk show people are saying. It IS nice outside. I’ll be going to the parliament building today, hopefully, and take some snapshots. Stay tuned! Yesterday was hectic. I ran around the city covering about 30 blocks on foot looking for a power cable for my laptop. Finally found on at the Staples store. It was in an already opened box, so I got %20 off. Still cost near $100 US. Crikey!

Some solid protesting going on in front of the parliament building. Check out the pictures.

Waiting in LAX

I’m going to Philadelphia tonight on a red-eye from LAX. Babies are crying everywhere! Hopefully they’ll do enough of that here -before- we get on the plane… Well, here’s hoping for “Curse of the Black Pearl” for an in-flight movie…!
