Vandalism, Sort Of

While walking home across the LRT bridge, I noticed some bootprints and bike tracks. Not too surprising, except that they were down in the snow on top of the Bow river. The ice doesn’t really get that thick, what kind of idiot would risk themselves on that, I wondered.

Then I noticed where the tracks were leading. A bit farther down, some words had been stomped into the snow covering the ice. In the dim light I couldn’t make out what it actually said, but I did recognize the now-cliche ‘anarchy’ circled-A.

Yes, somebody actually risked life and limb to let us all know just how 3DGY they are…

In other news, I actually got my first credit card fraud check call today, to verify a recent transaction. I was so surprised by their call on a weekend and to the office that I probably sounded completely suspicious and the police are on their way right now. Hey, is that a siren…

This post has also made me realize that I have no idea how to do accented characters in X applications. Being a filthy Westerner I’ve never really needed to use them before. I’ll have to look into it…
