Sprinklers

Once the switch is thrown these automated water sprinklers come on regardless whether the lawn needs the water or not. I've seen some in operation in the rain.

Queue jumpers

Due to Vancouver's mild weather road maintenance is a year-round thing. There are the odd times when there aren't adequate warning. Most of the time they work crews gave ample notice for motorists to merge in advance. Of course there are always some who wouldn't merged until the last second. Most annoying is those who let these queue jumpers such as these on the left in.

Camper

The camper and pickup were the first to come into view. My reaction was somebody had setup a living quarters by this popular trail. After seeing the backhoe I then realized the city's work crew is doing work in the trail.

Competition

Didn't realized the competition in the cellphone market has gone by a few notches until I saw this in one of the mall. Telus managed to have one of its huge ads hung directly behind a Solo booth which is owned by Bell. Wonder how much Telus had to pay for this arrangement.

At my friend's place

This cute puppy belongs to a friend who is into pets. He has cats and dogs in the house in addition to aquariums of various sizes all over the house.

Extrovert

I was sitting at the dentist's office the other morning. In walked this guy who immediately shattered the silence of the office. Immediately he strolled over to the coffee pot. Unfortunate for him the pot was emptied as the staff haven't got around to brew it yet. Then he turned walked, stood in the middle of the room pulled out his Blackberry and checked his email. It was when I took this photo. if I'm to job profile him I would say he is in sales.

Wii-Fit

had heard so much about the Wii-Fit. After seeing it not too sure how effective it is in weight control in the long run. I mean it is pretty hard to see how anybody can work up a good sweat using it.
