Brewer Pavillion #5

Brewer Pavillion #5Ian David Blüm Ian David Blüm is definitely one of my flickr faves. His picture of the Brewer Beach Pavillion brought back some long-forgotten memories. Brewer Park is across the street from Carleton University here in Ottawa. It is on the banks of the Rideau River and, at one time, had a sandy […]

dear senators:

there’s already a solution to your problem. it’s called a parent. how about focusing on making them understand and account for what their kids are doing? if they can’t, the “think of the children” scope is probably bigger than just the intarweeb… I’m just sayin’…
