Apropos of nothing, when out hiking yesterday I watched a glider fly around above me for a while. I've never seen one in person before.

It's both amazing and incredibly freaky watching something that looks like an enormous bird silently circling above you.

Every time I read a new article on Boeing it gets worse.

Jesus Christ. I was glad when I saw my last flight was on an old 737.

I once did the drive from Ontario (leaving from Muskoka basically) to Western Canada, and let me tell you, it is very demoralizing to drive for 12 hours and still be in Ontario.

E: North around Superior is a cool rear end drive though.

North > South

i just imagine the delivery pilots putting their phone braced between instruments and glass and watching movies the whole way.
