I'm weary of so many journalists, including many who should know better, referring to "dark" side of the moon instead of the "Far" side of the moon. We see the former every 28 days, and we never see the latter unless we fly around it. They can do better. #artemis2
Barometric pressure here bottomed out at 28.877 inches around 5am today as the center of the low pressure "bomb" was passing with this storm. Only up to 28.96 now and rising. #pestorm@StratfordPEI
Let me step back for just a moment during this epic hockey game, and renew my burning demand to @cbcsports to get Ron McLean and his stupid turns of phrase off your airwaves. Please. Thank you. #gocanadago
With all of the detached skate blades and broken sticks lately, I'm not sure if we're better off than we were in the 1980s with old fashioned Sherwood lumber and Bauer Tacks. #hockey
After several minutes of "Coverage Will Resume" shots of Venice interspersed with commercials, @cbcgem finally came back to the hockey game and showed a replay package that...YES...extended past the faceoff for the 2nd period. Ace timing there, people. Enjoy Italy.
I strongly suspect @cbcsports took some of their NHL production crew to Italy for Olympic hockey. Seeing the usual dumb camera switches, missed faceoffs, and sudden non-contextual close-ups that have annoyed me for years. Well done.

Interesting flight path for WestJet 801 from Halifax to Toronto. Is it skirting weather or skirting the United States? Certainly not the most direct path.
As of this week I chose to terminate my @cbcgem subscription. I can now get most of what I want on YouTube, and CBC refuses to release subscriber numbers. So I'll make their task one subscriber less burdensome. Their App was buggy too, and programming was a bad fit for me.
Until yesterday, the latest I had ever mowed my lawn was November 8th, but the weather was decent enough to give me a chance to tidy it up. So my new latest mow date is November 22nd! #peiwx
Just going to put this out there: Brazilian airline @VoeGOLoficial has the worst web site I have ever experienced. They should not be in the Star Alliance with @AirCanada - been trying to check in for an hour and have been sent into a maddening loop. Fire them.
