Ness' Outpost

For the Queen’s birthday I’m going to be spending some time in Guelph playing with power tools and helping Grant construct some built in shelves for his apartment storage space.

After that we’re taking his new canoe out onto Guelph Lake to do some fishing. I picked up two new Rapala lures from Canadian Tire – the countdown sinking (CD-9) and the original (F-7). These are my first multi-hook lures (one in the body, one at the tail) which is something to look for when taking the flopping fish off the hook.

Then it’s BBQ time and Sunday night we’re going to go see some fireworks. Perhaps the best part is not working on Monday.

I found out today that my typing wasn’t as bad as I thought.
I kept trying to log into my banking web site to pay some bills and was told my username/password was incorrect on Friday night. I gave it a day or two since I thought all my wrong attempts might have locked up the account for some amount of time. I tried again and no dice. So I attempted to reset my password with my security questions. No dice there either and the web page told me to call the help desk.

Turns out my card was canclled by the bank because it was flagged as either tamppered with or copied by someone in a police investigation. Now I am without banking abilities since that card number is tied to online banking. Therefore until I can get my new card activated I can’t do any banking.

Too bad I was trying to log on to pay a bill. Hopefully the card will be mailed to me before my mastercard is due. Otherwise I’ll have to call them and tell them my sob story looking for an extension.
