Learning to Fly
Into the distance, a ribbon of blackStretched to the point of no turning backA flight of fancy on a windswept fieldStanding alone my senses reeledA fatal attraction holding me fast, howCan I escape this irresistible grasp?Can't keep my mind from the circling skiesTongue-tied and twisted Just an earth-bound misfit, IIce is forming on the tips of my wingsUnheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everythingNo navigator to find my way homeUnladened, empty and turned to stoneA soul in tension that's learning to flyCondition grounded but determined to tryCan't keep my mind from the circling skiesTongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, IAbove the planet on a wing and a prayer,My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,Across the clouds I see my shadow flyOut of the corner of my watering eyeA dream unthreatened by the morning lightCould blow this soul right through the roof of the nightThere's no sensation to compare with thisSuspended animation, A state of blissCan't keep my mind from the circling skiesTongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I-- Pink Floyd Blogged with Flock

Canadians Discarding Old Clothes in Mall Parking Lots on U.S. Shopping TripsMonday, December 17, 2007
Associated Press
NIAGARA, N.Y. — Canadian shoppers taking advantage of the parity between the U.S. and Canadian dollars are leaving behind more than cash when the head home.
They're leaving behind their old clothes.
Some Canadian shoppers wear their new clothes home to avoid paying a duty when they cross back into Canada. The old clothes get left behind in parking lots, dressing rooms and restrooms at malls and shopping plazas in the Buffalo-Niagara Falls region.
At the Fashion Outlets mall just outside the city of Niagara Falls, managers have placed collection bins near the exits where Canadians customers can deposit their unwanted items.
The clothing is then given to Community Missions of Niagara Frontier.
Clothing bins have also been placed at the Walden Galleria in suburban Cheektowaga.

Back to the Real World
We are back from our honeymoon. We had a wonderful honeymoon. For our honeymoon we took a cruise to the Bahamas. We rented motor scooters and went around the island.
The wedding went off without to much trouble. It was a special day that I will never forget. My Grandfather walked me down the aisle. Seeing Corey under the chuppa waiting for me is a picture that will remain with me for eternity.
I will show some pictures tomorrow, but I have to get back to the real world. Tomorrow I have to get back to the grind. Signal Officer Basic starts tomorrow bright and early at 0530. Fun times! Got to love early wake up calls.
