Pic of the Day #1146
This picture was taken at Bright Nights (or is it Bright Lights?) — the annual Christmas Lights display put on in Hawrelak Park by various associations in Edmonton. Most of the displays are the same from year to year, but they’re still enjoyable to see.
This display is, I think, another old standby, although to be honest I don’t remember seeing it this past year. Also, it irritates me: igloos and penguins don’t belong in the same scene!

I started blogging back in 2004 -- in May, if the Wayback Machine is to be believed. Not that I remember the exact day. To be honest, I didn't take it that seriously then; it was a fun distraction, but nothing more.
That all changed, I think, once the Danish cartoons were published, and the assault on the right to freedom of expression became very visible. With the recent issues in Canada concerning the "human rights" commissions, the gravity of the matter has only increased, and my interest in blogging has increased right along with it.
I used to blog at a domain called Time Immortal, but it seemed to be the right time for a change -- there's been a lot of that in my life of late. Hence this blog: a fresh start, and proof positive that I won't shut up even if I get shut down once in a while.
