Who remembers that day? I had a nice long walk home from downtown along lake shore with tens of thousands. It was a pleasant summer day.
I was camping with my buddy. We had no idea it happened untill we got back.
@jimmyjamxoxo @jimmyjamxoxo lucky for me I got a GO train that got me half way home. Still a long walk.
I didn't live far from downtown back then so lucky for me, I could walk home. It was a long walk for some people.
Yep, I actually like these occurances; work stops, phonecalls stop, sit and hangout with family, play cards by candle light. There was the 3 day ice storm one too. Fired up the BBQ for boiling water for coffee and cooking food. Thankfully we had an old gas water heater with passive vent so we could still have hot water fr showers.
@jimmyjamxoxo I was in a hotel room in Hanoi Vietnam, watching Mel Lastman make a blubbering fool of himself on CNN half a world away.
