My first appeal on a detention order issued by a Superior Court was partially upheld. The defendant is still in jail, but on one less count... A small victory. Overall, the explanation of the decision was insufficient in my opinion... Mixed feelings about this one.

my son defends his thesis Monday. 

My son is officially a PhD. We had a nice weekend in Montreal and managed to get home in time for a storm that logged the second highest recorded rainfall in the Ottawa area. Yuck!

Had a fine day today. 

Made my weekly trip to Safeway for grocery shopping and then took the wife to a lab so she could pee in a cup.

Just call me Mr Excitement! 😎

I don't know what a "water butt" is but I can guess. I hope it's not what I first thought it might be.

Good Morning all, Hedgehog you can watch your football as you brits call it, I am on pins and needles waiting for hockey season to start .
All is bright and sunny on this side of the pond.  I am off to get my leg wrapped and I am still recovering form my heart surgery on Monday, this was the 3rd time I had this done. You know what they say the 3rd time is more painful then the last 2. 😉
