Eclipse

It was pretty cloudy here, but I did get to see a bit of the eclipse. Here's a picture from Ottawa -- the bricks are part of Parliament Hill.

Endorsement

Trying to Trigger Murphy's Law

I'm worried that the moron's going to get another four wars-- oops, I mean years. In that case, many Americans have threatened to move to Canada. First off, you're of course welcome! Just leave your guns at home, mmmkay?

But, hoping to trigger Murphy's Law, I'd like to start planning for this mass migration. Since the plans will be in motion, I hope they won't actually be required. (Now, there's a whole second argument that attempting to trigger Murphy's Law always creates the opposite result, but that would be OK since you're all totally cool.)

Here's how it works: in order for Canada to absorb y'all without too much pain, you need to fulfill different roles. For example, scott8424 will be the guy who works with the airline pilots, and get_busy_living will become a reporter. Please comment and figure out a unique role for yourself, first come first served!
