Ten Years Later and Sunday’s Best

It is 10 years since the day that changed the world. I still remember it quite well, and the most vivid thing I remember is a co-worker showing me a picture of the second jet going into the tower and thinking, “Wow that is some amazing photo shop work!”, unfortunately I was wrong, and it was all too real. I spent the day locating my brother who was traveling, but luckily no where near the flights in question, and then finding out later that friends in New York and New Jersey lost loved ones in the attacks. Life is very different now, and I don’t think for the better, but life does go on unfortunately too.

I will be at Church this morning, and that will help me show my respects for the victims of that day, and the victims of the ramifications of that day as well.

This was a shorter week, and my Tweets were not as numerous, but still a few good ones in there:

  • After lampooning Air Canada’s new baggage fee I found an old post about Legroom Fees, and how AC was thinking of charging for the seats by the emergency doors because they had more leg room.
  • Given I have just spent more money in a week than I have since last September, I pointed out my informational post RESP This Round Finally ends, which actually posts to many of my posts on that subject last year.
  • Since the Bank of Canada continues to say inflation is running at 2.0% in Canada I figured I’d point out that Stats Canada disagrees with Inflation Slows in July.
  • For a little levity I add my post Boobs as a Metaphor for Earthquakes, which is a bit silly, really.
  • Finally I included an old favorite The Most Hideous Financial Picture, which is me railing against pay day loan places again.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
