Prise dans la toilette d’un Esso à Pointe-Saint-Charles, cette magnifique affiche laminée, qui part d’une bonne volonté j’en suis sûr, me laisse perplexe. Entièrement d’accord de vouloir garder l’endroit propre, mais l’arrière-plan de nature, dans un endroit tout aussi peu confortable qu’une étroite toilette de garage, je ne sais pas.

lindsey_ilike

I’m not just a techno Geek. I’m also a big fan of music, so wearing t-shirts on artists or groups that I like is a way for me to show my passion, but also to help promote what they are doing. Lindsey Stirling is fabulous! It’s an amazing mix between violin, electro, energy, and sexyness! It has... Read more

God will know… Saw this tip “jar” at the Daily Dozen Doughnut Company last time I was in Seattle. It always makes me laugh.
