Where have all the Rabbits gone??

We walk on the Ganatchio Trail every day. Last year at this time we would see a dozen rabbits...at least...on our walks. Towards the end of last winter we saw several dead rabbits in one area of the trail. This spring we saw more rabbits....but now there no rabbits to be seen on the trail. We are out there early in the morning and at dusk, which is when the rabbits are most visible, but there are none to be seen! Does anyone know what happened? Sad to see that they have disappeared....even sadder to think how that may have happened!!

Anyone Know?

My daughter was in one of the choirs singing with Music Express this afternoon at L'essor. A girl from one of the other schools collapsed on the stage. My daughter is expressing concern for her and we are hoping that someone knows her and is able to tell us if she is okay.

aubin road coward

My mom is a disabled senior resident of the aubin road community. She walks with a walker and has significant mobility issues. Needless to say yard work is not something she can mange on her own. As a homeowner I can understand the concern of living near someone who can't get out and rake their leaves but was the nasty passive aggressive TYPED note you left her really necessary? The time it took you to type that letter may have been better spent helping out a senior. I understand its no ones responsibility to tidy another persons yard...but if it bothered you so much perhaps a polite conversation regarding your concerns may have been a better way to handle the situation. If you aren't a part of the solution then you are part of the problem.

Tiffany Cat Eye Sunglasses

I thought I would share this since it has never really stopped bugging me.

My girlfriend and I went to pick up a couch at a ladies house last year.
In doing so she left her new sunglasses behind. It was the last place we were, they were not in the car and from my recollection, I remember her taking them off and putting them on the counter.

Well a little while later my girlfriend said "on no my sunglasses - I left them at that ladies house".
So she called the lady and explained where she had left them. Long story short - the lady talked and talked and talked in circles saying they are no where to be seen and this and that. I found it rather strange that she just keep talking and talking. The conversation lasted 10 minutes. Instead of her saying "sorry they are not here" she was just going on and on about the glasses and what have you. So that kind of automatically raised my suspicion.

Well the glasses never turned up. But my gut instinct tells me that lady definitely enjoyed getting a pair of $550 dollar Tortoise coloured Tiffany Cat Eye sunglasses for free...

Now the reason this bugs me is because they were brand new. Its not everyday someone treats themselves to a nice accessory like that - especially when its costs so much. Once in a while is nice and this was that "once in a while" time.

So to the lady that is probably sporting those sunglasses if you are reading this, you know who you are and you should have acted as an honest human being.

SCAM - Enwin Imposters

One of our tenants received a call from someone purporting to be from Enwin today. The caller demanded that they pay $4,000 within the next few hours or their power would be turned off. As a restaurant, they were very concerned at the potential loss of power and called us immediately.

I called Enwin, paid bill in hand, and they told me that this is a common scam going around the area. If Enwin were to cut off your power they would firstly call the person to whom the bill is issued and secondly give a 48 hour notice. If you receive a call like this, Enwin is asking that you call the Windsor Police Financial Crimes Unit so that they can track incidents and hopefully stop the culprits from continuing this scam. Please let everyone you know that this is happening so they are not fooled should they receive such a call.

NEW SCAM ALERT

today I received this bag hanging from my gate. In bold letter at the top it says
NOTICE
WATER ANAYSIS DATA FORM
I just want everyone to know this is NOT from the city, it is actually a company trying to sell you water purification systems. I have called them and they were very shady. I had to force the fact they are trying to sell something.
I talked with my neighbours and they thought it was from the city.... Have a look at the picture. It sure does look like it is legit. I also have a friend who has actually done it and they scared her into thinking her water was bad. When asked to provide this in writing so they can forward it to the city itself , nope, the finally admitted there was nothing wrong with her water.
Please share this photo and let everyone know it is actually solicitation ! And they ARE NOT FROM THE CITY

Really Canada Post?

My 7 year old daughter happily received her letter back from Santa...the personalized P.S. however was anything it should have been. Completely Unacceptble. To the person who wrote it, if you were having a bad day, I am sorry, but you should have went home.

Over reacting in drive thru

Today at the Tim Hortons on Manning I accidentally cut off a young man in a pick up truck, I didn't realize you were in line as there was two car lengths in front and I was trying to move so the car behind could turn right. I realized after my mistake when you laid on the horn behind me and reved your engine and accelerated towards me. But thank you for scaring my young children in the car, thank you for yelling at me as I placed my order and again as I picked my order up, and I paid for your large coffee to show I was sorry.

At the end of the dayi was a few seconds ahead of you, think about your actions,is it really worth intimidating someone over a cup of coffee. I hope you were just having a bad day and that it turned around.
