Yep. I caved in.



1. I want to keep living in Ottawa.

2. I believe in the need for an independent and united Canada.

3. The best-tasting soda pop in my opinion is the BottleGreen Pressé, particularly the Cranberry-Orange blend.

4. That my professional need for good photo-reference has resulted in photography becoming a sideline hobby in its own right is not a surprise.

5. That a travel guide publisher became interested in my photos was a surprise.

6. I'm not complaining about it, though.

7. Despite my knowledge of orbital mechanics and the seasons they cause being completely natural, it still feels Wrong to have a winter day be only eight or nine hours in duration.

8. Comic books are one of the great artforms of the 20th and 21st centuries. I believe this without hesitation or reservation.

9. I still miss Da Vinci's City Hall and This is Wonderland on TV.

10. A dog is a truly noble animal. Its nobility is derived in part, I believe, from its capacity for comedy.

11. Having public transit makes my life more, not less, carefree and endurable.

12. I am a civil service brat.

13. I want to visit all ten provinces and three territories of Canada before I die.

14. I have yet to visit Newfoundland and Labrador.

15. I have to yet to visit any of the territories.

16. I want better fluency in my French-speaking.

17. I want to learn at least one First Nations language before I die. I have not yet decided which one I should focus my efforts on. (Recommendations welcome.)

18. I will offer no apologies for enjoying TV space opera, no matter how rubbery the science.

19. I intend to keep exploring Ottawa as thoroughly as possible.

20. I want to design another font, and finish the work I've begun on two earlier projects. Type design has been an interest since high school.

21. I am convinced that CBC Radio One hides some true gems in its evening schedules.

22. Fire will not solve most of my problems.

23. There is a Great Canadian Space Opera Novel locked in my mind somewhere, and I will extract and get that sucker published before I die.

24. A home inside of Ottawa's Greenbelt could be a good thing for me.

25. I have trouble letting go.

We also have a sizable Haudenosonee/Iroquois contingent, much of it Ganienkeh/Mohawk if I remember correctly. Also, there's an Inuit presence from Nunavut, thanks to healthcare, intergovernmental relations, lobbying, and media tech needs. So one could argue for all three languages and not be looked at as being out of their tree.
