With the great weather over the March 6 weekend, I headed down to Cherry Beach, and as I found out, a lot of dog owners did the same thing.
It was a chance to throw a ball or stick in the water so that there dogs could run into the water, or simply run down the beach having some fun!

The house hippo is real!
We have all seen the commercial for the "house hippo",
a fake Hinterland Who's who type of commercial for a group concerned about childrens advertising.
Well, I was at a show this past weekend, where Zoo to You had an exhibt of animals, such as snakes, lizards, frogs, rabbits and the house hippo
Here it is, just to prove it, held in the hands of on of the attendants!!
Well, they are actually a hairless guniea pig, called a Skinny Pig, and you can find info here, or pictures here.

The pee nazi!
I recently attended the Bike Show, held on the CNE grounds, and wandered throughout the building, enjoying the bikes, accessories and shows, which included racing,
and stunts.
After a few hours, I need to hit the bathroom to make, as I like to call it, a donation to the City of Toronto!
With all the camera equipment I have, a generally head into the stall, as I can hang up my camera bag and camera on the coat hook. My brother did the same thing next door. As I'm starting to hang things up, I hear "THIS IS NOT A URINATOR!", apparently directed at my brother. Its repeated, and my brother says "what are you talking about?"
This brings another "THIS IS NOT A URINATOR" followed with a bang on the door and a "CAN YOU NOT HEAR ME?" comment. To this, I respond "I think he can hear you, he is just choosing not to answer you!"
And now the wrath is directed at me! I flush, put on my camera bag, look down, still see yellow and think that maybe I didn't flush, so I flush again, and open the door to find an old man staring at me. He's wearing a shirt indicating he works at the Living Arts Centre, and says "FLUSH". I say I did flush, and he says "Hold the handle". So I do. For about 15 seconds. I say "I was not aware there was a bathroom monitor in this place." I then said "should I head to the principles office?", and he say "ya, you should". He then watches over my shoulder as I wash my hands. Gotta tell you, very interesting experience!!
Now, I wasn't sure what exactly a urinator was, so I googled it, and this is what came up!!
