Some local news: 
Salmon River is now hockeyville 2006. I found out Sunday after loud horns and fireworks, but then went back to my Civ 4 game. The exhibition game? According to the local paper, it’s going to be held at the Truro Legion stadium instead. It fits more people evidently.
Hey, talking about Nova Scotia: fellow Nova Scotians went to the polls today and as apolitical I try to be, today’s good-gross is brought to you by macadamia cookies (recipes). Next time elections are around, I expect aspiring candidates1 to go door to door with a box of that goodness.
1 update: I see that the three ridings in Colchester stayed in the hands of the Conservative party (Brooke Taylor, Jamie Muir and Karen Casey).
