Ness’ Outpost

Lauren and I wrote our PPE for the PEO. Ethics and Law were ringing through my head at the time. Another test that is complete in the walk of life.

After the test we caught up with some friends, had dinner and then went back to Jay’s to play with is new Nintendo Wii Console.

It is a very different gaming system. You make the motion with your hands holding the controllers to move your characters on the screen. It was very fun, and rather addicting. Even Lauren liked the games — bowling, tennis, boxing and baseball — and she’s a pretty hard critic of video consoles in general.

I picked up some new tires at Active Green & Ross today. Monday night was pretty slippery so I decided it was time to replace the Goodyear/Handcook mix that came on my orphan’s rims when I got her about a year ago. Since I’m on vacation this week to study for my PPE exam I had some time to burn.

I bought some Uniroyal Tiger Paw AS65’s which are rated for 110k km. It was one of those buy one get one 1/2 off deals, but I still had to pay for balancing and valves of course so it becomes less attractive. But since I plan on riding out these tires until they or the car end I think it’s best to pay a bit more than going for the bargin basement tires.
