Tim's Tip of the Day

When it comes to laws that are suppose to protect you, you will find yourself sadly underprotected. This vehicle seen on a Tisdale street yesterday has bumpers that are above the hood of most cars and mini-vans.

Kevin's find of the day

This is a photo of a label from a laptop bag that is made by a small American company. The label is in French. Here is the  translation:
Wash with warm water. 
Use mild soap.
Dry flat.
Do not use bleach.
Do not dry in the dryer.
Do not iron.
We are sorry that
Our President is an idiot.
We did not vote for him.

Ensign Notes

Side tracked by the Olympic Games and failed to get the stories done, sorry about that.

Friday
