You put pumpkin in your coffee?

Oi voi, as some might say. I just online witnessed someone getting their panties in a twist because a Soy Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks in not vegan. It contains condensed milk and therefore dairy. This person is not allergic to dairy in any way or form and only wanted it to be vegan because he or she is vegan. Let me put my little cynic cap on but honestly I would assume that you're vegan for a certain sets of beliefs... and shouldn't "do not provide money for hugearse corporations" be in those beliefs? Would have been a real kicker if that person had always ordered his or her drinks from Starbucks and drank them from one of those throw-away cups. The rationality of people, gets me every time! But life is good. And speaking of rationality, you know those people on strike. So I fully support the fact that the right to go on strike is a constitutional thing... but come on, is being an arsehole to those not on strike or degradation of public property part of being on strike? Last time I checked nope. Faudrait que quelqu'un fasse un petit rappel pour certains qui se croient plus intelligents que tout le monde parce que c'est bien d'être en grève mais il faut le faire dans les règles de l'art et pas comme des sauvages. (Punaise, je pense que la France est le seul pays où l'on peut parler de la grève en tant qu'art) Yesterday I had to check in the SD card reader works under Ubuntu on the mini computer and so I got these photos from the small camera. They're mainly all either Toulon or commute related. We sometimes have clouds that hang over the Faron... there are worse things that office windows give on. I'm quite glad this office is on this side of the building. We may not have the sun shining directly at all during wintertime but at least we can see this and not the entrance to a shopping center.

( five or six more photos of stuff ) And there are worse things to see on a daily commute.

Day 348

Day 348 - 18.10.10

Dinner.

Lunch adventures... la suite!

Another week of lunch boxes - only three this time as Tuesday was a quick work lunch at Sophia Antipolis (whoever came out with the layout of that place should burn in a special kind of hell) and Wednesday was a lunch at home.

Monday. Zucchini/potato patties with sauce. Plum tart (previously seen here) ( two more lunches ) (as usual, all the lunch boxes starting from September can be found here)
