Thank god! I have been burning through puzzles for years and have almost exhausted the list at Jigsaw puzzles in Canada. Custom puzzles sound like a good way to feed my habit.

Wondering if these guys ship to Canada

Yeah their squawking is quite distinctive, once you realise where its coming from. Yes! There really is a bunch of rainforest birds in the trees!

Our people are very strong, we will rebuild again, but it’s good to see that there are still lots of good people in this world, and may God bless all those who help Haiti in this situation.

This is fantastic, and gives motivation to map some buildings.

The post talks about your mum going mad, but how did your dad keep his sanity and carry on? Note the cheeky Christmas drink in the background, and the remains of something like a mince pie?

Cool. How about bending tiddywiki to support OpenStreetMap? I did a bit of this for MediaWiki http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/MediaWiki_extension …so letting you bring in a map with some wiki syntax. Not sure if it’s the kind of thing people would be interested in doing inside their tiddlers.

Shucks — it was great to speak to you too, Harry and I’ve been inspired to dig deeper into the world of Open Street Maps some more as a result of our chat. BTW, Jeremy Ruston who runs Osmosoft is the evil genius behind TiddlyWiki. I just have fun bending it into pocketbooks and wot not!

The shoe from the site is also shown at the end of this clip from Midnight Kiss

also all the site has the signature of light and composition of Robert Murphy the cinematographer of this movie whois making rich play of game from the black and white newspaper quality to rich grey scale in a eluding composition.

Sorry “Richard”!

I’m doing a PHP urlencode on the location which converts space to ‘+’. Do a bogus search for “aaa bbb” and it shows what’s happening. Python should decode that to a space again automatically I would’ve thought. Maybe the final link with google is going wrong there.
