Make sure you check both ways before coming out of the “adult video” stores today if you live in Ottawa. Google street view cars are on the streets. I spotted one this morning around 8:30AM coming onto the 416 North bound at Fallowfield. To bad I don’t seem to be able to figure out how to use my camera phone or I’d have a picture to show too!
Here is an example of what the car looks like. It’s just a regular looking gray Chevrolet Cobalt with a huge mast on the top.

I’m making the leap into the world of social media. I’ve been blogging for a really long time now (I’ve got 8 years worth of posts in the archives) but I never really latched onto the social media push that has happened in the last year or so. A lot of that probably is due to the fact most of my friends aren’t into it either.
Facebook, Twitter and Identi.ca
So, here’s my stab at becoming more social! You can follow me on Twitter or you can follow me on Identi.ca. If you are on Facebook, you should be able to track me down there too (well, assuming you are someone I know in real life otherwise I’m probably not going to add you to my friends list. Sorry.).
I can’t guarantee you’re going to see anything super interesting if you follow me. At the moment I’ve really only tied all three of the above apps into this blog. You should see updates when ever I make a new post here. If you follow me, I’ll probably follow you. Then we can twitter or dent with each other and be like all the cool kids! :)
Here are pictures of Roxie our Saint Bernard/Labrador Mix breed dog. She just turned 4 years old on March 23, 2009 and it’s hard to believe she has been with us this long.
I hope you enjoy them!
Here’s a quick poll for today. Which way should electrical outlets be oriented? Should they have the ground prong up?

Or should they have the ground prong down?
Electrical outlet ground prong down
I don’t think there is anything in the electrical code that requires one orientation or the other. Maybe Allan will be able to clear that one up. :) (I can’t seem to find my copy of the “yellow book” right now or I’d confirm it on my own.)
I know which way I prefer and there definitely appears to be an expected orientation based on some of the products I’ve purchased over the years. For some reason, all of the outlets on the top floor of our house were put in opposite to everything on the main floor. I’m guessing that some electrician decided (s)he wanted to be different when the upstairs was remodeled.
Anyways, leave a comment and let me know what your opinion is – should the ground prong go up or down?
