What the hell? Early winter in Canada I see

Yeah it's supposed to warm up in the next day or two so it'll be short lived. Still quite annoying to wake up to

Much appreciated! Have to make sure to budget for Canes season tickets in that case too

I'm sorry dude but this is some "everyone's name is Johnson" class of nonsense.

Learning of the 1st Baron of Bernberg evokes some camerady though for person such as me hailing from the proud Finnish town of Björnborg*.

Now who can argue with that? I think we're all indebted to Lempo Johnson for clearly stating what needed to be said. I'm particulary glad that these lovely children were here today to hear that speech.

Don't talk of the thirteenth.

Even though it doesn't feel like fall I went and baked a spiced pumpkin cheesecake last week. I know it's not as pretty as usual but it still tasted darned good all the same.

Pumpkin cheesecake is one of the best ways pumpkin is shoved into everything at this time of year.

Depressing post.

There was a kidnapping at a park I’ve taken my daughter to. It’s a special needs autistic child, so they haven’t used the Amber Alert.

Pray they find this 6 year old boy, didn’t know Charlotte was #8 on human trafficking.

I hope they find the scumbags who did it and lock them away for the rest of their natural born lives.

I hope they get shanked in prison.

Yeah my nephew is non verbal autistic. It’s so tough, for him and for his parents. And he is the sweetest, most loving little boy. My heart goes out to this little dude and his family. I hope he’s found safe.

Make up call fo sho

 

[SlavinAway]

As a new dad with an autistic sister-in-law this is heart breaking. Hope they find him unharmed.

 

[Unsustainable]

they found him in a creek.

 

[SlavinAway]

they found him in a creek.

Damn...

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

they found him in a creek.

That sucks.

Something seems off about the whole thing.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Not that it makes it that much better, but it doesn't seem to have been a kidnapping or murder. Apparently he ran out of sight at a park, and was found in a creek adjacent to that same park. Based on what we know, the most likely explanation is that he just got lost in the woods and being nonverbal, couldn't respond to the rescuers who were looking for him.

Every parent's worst nightmare. I'm sure the dad will have heavy guilt for the rest of his life, over something that happens with pretty much every kid during the course of their childhood.

The problem though is that where they found him is across a major street from the park (321 is 3 lanes souths and 4 lanes north there).

I have a feeling of foul play, some of the other things being said locally worry me.

Yeah. There is something very wrong.

 

[Unsustainable]

From my readings, they lost him around the green circle, and found him around the red circle, that’s over a mile away.

Unless he followed the creek, that highway is very busy 24/7
