Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings all around the world
Incident on Wednesday September 9, approx 9:15pm. Looking for the lady who followed me all the way down Normandy Rd in Lasalle to the the stop light at Malden and Normandy, flashing your brights off and on as well as getting out of your vehicle to approach mine at the stop light. I have no idea what was going on here, why you were flashing me and chasing me down or what your hand gestures meant while you were at my truck window. Please forgive me for not opening the window to hear or ask what you wanted. You see, some years back, I rolled down my window to help a lady with directions and I was carjacked, assaulted and robbed, left for nothing in the middle of the road. I would have left this incident alone if it weren't for the fact that you followed me all the way to my home. As soon as I pulled in my driveway, you sat and watch me then sped off. Now if this was a real emergency and my vehicle was in danger of some sort, or if I had done something wrong, I'm sure you would have pulled right in to tell me, or reported me to the Police. My husband and I checked over my truck, looking for broken lights, flat tires, brake lights not working etc and we found nothing. Still I have no clue what you wanted. If you are out there and reading this, please let me know what the heck was going on. Did I somehow cut you off not knowing? If so, I do apologize but I hardly warrant it a reason to hunt me down and flash your lights and actually get out of your car to yell at me. Confused!? In any case, good or bad, you've been Spotted.
Saw a dog (possibly a German Shepherd or something similar) wandering around on Princess and Marlborough at 11:30pm...I tried calling him/ her over, but it looked like he/ she was on a mission...
Lost cellphone in Lasalle.

Monday around 3 p.m. running around McHugh Drive in Windsor this little girl was spotted running in traffic. She was brought to the vet but is not microchipped we checked with the houses around the area and nobody claimed her. The Humane Society has been contacted and she's being kept safe in my homeuntil her owner can come and find her. She's very friendly and sweet and seems to be very well taken care of. Please contact the humane society if this is your little pup. She misses her home
Some people need to learn the difference between driving in a parking lot and the road. Today in the parking lot behind joes produce a ignorant man in a black jeep decided he should drive thru like he was on ec row as I slowly was turning out of parking lot and than proceeded to yell at me !! Really ? It's people like you that cause accidents slow down !!
On the 1C bus, and your sitting next to me as I type this. Your the first (and one of the seldom few) who has had the courtesy of giving your spot for me.
I'm younger than most who need the priority seating so when I walk on, even with the aid of my cane, I'm not given a second glance to. (Which is hard to do considering I have purple hair at the mo.)
I wanted to say a sincere thank you for your thoughtfulness. I had walked from Ottawa St. & Walker Rd. to Tecumseh Rd. for the bus I needed to get to my destination, I had been so incredibly drained from walking my 8 year old to school for Back To Schook and my Fibro was playing up with my bulged disc.
I appreciated what you did beyond words! A little gesture dpeaks thousands of words, Thank you again!
To the gentleman (about my age) with the shaved head & blue shorts (who gave up the next open seat for a friend who coincidentally hopped on the bus not long after I), You've been spotted!
Thank you to the driver who hit me on my bike today at 9:30pm as I was biking to work because he couldn't wait .1 second to get to the Timmies ( when I had the right of way).
This happened at the Tim Horton's on Lauzon and wyndotte, as I was passing the driveway he stopped waiting to turn into the driveway ( with no signal may I add) as i was about half way he decided to step on his accelerator and drive up and hit my right leg and my back tire, leaving me to have more then a few choice words and a flipped finger to him and his GF, and my leg was shaking. my adrenaline was shot. Not only did I have not 1 but 3 white lights on the front ( 1 big one and 2 small on each side, as well as a red flashing light for the back of my bike, but I even had on a safety vest to help allow drivers to see me. and still I got managed to get hit! really... (should of taken his plate down and stuff, but my adrenaline was shot and I had to get to work, I bike from forest glade to downtown)
I understand that drivers hate bikes driving on the road and I get it and people are impatient, its actually quiet sad if you ask me. I hear everyone complain about people riding bikes, and I get it, but bikers have to respect the law just as much as drivers. The law wants us to bike on the road in a bike path, but even that doesn't feel so safe for us. I couldn't even bike on the sidewalk clearly without getting hurt. I do get it, I got annoyed some days when I would drive to work and a biker would be on the road and not able to pass due to oncoming traffic, but I respected the biker as well slow down stayed far behind and passed when clear, bikers are just going where they need to go as well, why can't people respect that.
Driving down riverside drive I stuck to the sidewalks I'm sorry but I'm not taking a chance on my life or getting seriously hurt, but even sticking to the sidewalk, every driver coming out of the side roads tend not to care about the stop signs,not using common sense to look both ways before you go, I get it no one wants to do a complete stop, but even when they do a complete stop they don't take precaution to everything around them and could end up in some serious damage.
Needless to say I am okay, just frustrated and I hope that the driver has a dent in their car, kinda wanted to Hulk smash the hood of the car. =)
Drive safe and bike safe everyone, know that .1 sec of your time can save someone keep that in mind.
