[13:13] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:33] <bregma> mornin'
[13:33] <bregma> today is aiming to be another melter
[13:33] <bregma> there wasn;t event mist on the fields at sunrise
[13:34] <bregma> my swimming pool is still a stanky morass of green algae
[13:34] <bregma> here come the bucketloads of harsh chmicals
[13:34] <bregma> hopefully with all the rain last month I won;t draw down the well trying to top up the pool
[13:49] <BluesKaj> nice and clear , but windy here , quite a T-storm last evening heavy rain for an hr couldn't see across the street ...predicted large hail so we got off lucky
[14:02] <bregma> we just had wilting heat followed by waves of mosquitoes after sunset
[14:02] <bregma> now a flock of wild turkeys just flew into the trees outside my window
[15:41]  * genii-around makes more coffee!
[15:44] <dscassel> genii-around: Morning.
[15:45] <dscassel> genii-around: I ended up talking to a bunch of Free Geek Toronto guys on Saturday at BobJonkman's Ubuntu Hour in Toronto.
[15:45] <dscassel> They're quite eager to help build up a Toronto Ubuntu Group, and willing to open their space up for things like the Global Jam...
[15:46] <bregma> nice
[15:46] <dscassel> I'm trying to get them on the mailing list and IRC. :)
[15:46] <genii-around> Yeah the guys at Free Geek are pretty heavy into *buntu
[15:47] <genii-around> dscassel: Did you meet Ushnesh? He is also on the Toronto FreeNet board
[15:47] <dscassel> Yeah, he was there. I'm told he's their go-to organization and networking (in the real-life social sense) guy.
[15:48] <dscassel> Also met Rone Borland, who introduced us.
[15:49] <dscassel> And another guy (Delray?) who took all my stickers. :)
[15:50] <genii-around> Hehe
[15:54] <genii-around> I dropped a couple sets of CDs to the FreeNet office, I'll probably be at Free Geek either this Sun or the following Sun, there are 3 of us working on a small clustering project down there but i haven't had much time to go
[16:07] <dscassel> Cool. :)
[16:58] <genii-around> Bleh. They had a promotional thing in one of the empty units here yesterday where they gave away 6-packs of pineapple-mandarin orange vodka coolers. They left behind 105 6-packs though.
[17:09] <bregma> full or empties?
[17:40] <genii-around> bregma: Full
[17:41] <genii-around> bregma: I packed them up now on a big industrial dolly we have here, wheeled it all into the office of the woman who organized the event. Maybe they'll let everyone in the building divvy it up...
[17:44] <genii-around> "Palm Bay - Sophisticated Vodka Cooler With The Essence Of The Tropics ... With Pineapple and Mandarin Orange!"  is all 6-packs of cans packed in flats of 4 sixpacks each
[17:49] <bregma> target-marketing liquor at children ... they should offer candy-flavoured smokes to go with each sixpack
[17:51] <genii-around> Heh, probably. This stuff actually tastes like orange Fanta or Crush.
[17:53] <genii-around> What I'm actually thinking is: 630 cans at 10 cents return rate at the Beer Store is $63
[17:54] <bregma> it's just a matter of draining them, somehow, without acquiring diabetes
