Tim picked up on my shameful geekyness.
In my previous post, it was actually the “fire alarm” that went off. Not the “firewall alarm”…
Oh Gawd.

The firewall alarm in our building went off this morning. It was the first time it has, while we’ve been here.
I supposed it could have been worse; it went off at 6:45am, and it turned out to be nothing.
Maija shakes me out of bed to go and “turn off the alarm.” I return with the report that it’s the building alarm, and she must get dressed. Once dressed we take the stairs down 7 flights and go into the lobby. There are 2 other people who had left their homes, haha. Firemen and women arrived pretty much as soon as we got to the lobby, which is a level of service that I am happy with. The first fire person in the door was a remarkably attractive woman, this commented by my wife first, and then confirmed by me. (That’s the way of things when you’re married.) By the time 4 firepeople had managed to get inside, the 5th had already started returning to the truck, telling everyone it was “OK, someone had burned their breakfast.” Which was exactly the comment I made to the two neighbours down there, it smelled like burnt toast.
Disaster averted. Off to work.
Famous, or perhaps infamous, for developing the bear-fighting suit, Troy Hurtubise has done it again, with Project Troy.
*I’m not sure all of that Wikipedia article is true.
I hope you all had a fun, safe time last night. Maija and I wish you all the best for ‘06, and challenge you to go and do something about anything you spend time talking about.
I spun a mix in honour of the new year, go check it out under mixes.
