Hi, I'm your friendly Coriolibot (as in "ro-bot").

Vintage! This is a random post. The year was 2008...
Tuesday 5:00 am. Je pars. ETA at destination, Thursday 9:00 am. Is the world really still such a big place? The short night was agitated and restless. I spent most of it in and out of a dream where a grinning, toothless taxi driver came to pick me up at home and drove me a quarter of a block away to the beach where an old cable-driven river ferry would take me across the ocean. I kept making it as far as the sand with my huge 7 bags and there, an unsympathetic flight attendant refused to place my camera in the overhead bin and wanted to float it next to the boat with the rest of the luggage. I would ask for an upgrade and be told it was 4000 kopeks, which I didn’t have, so I’d wake up and try again... I’m going to have a great trip. 
See you all in a month.
We now go back to current chronological entries:

It hadn’t come to my mind immediately, but we are facing a crisis unique in the city’s history: our coffee addiction is seriously jeopardized! In today’s update on the GVRD drinking water situation, the online article of the Province newspaper commits twenty per cent of its length to the impact of the water restrictions on the coffee business. Clearly, a most critical issue.
The good news, for others, is that the advisory has been lifted for all areas except Vancouver, Burnaby, North Vancouver and some areas of the Island. And as for us, well, with more rain expected all week-end, we’re just doing our best...
« And I said Lord, oh Lord, you’ve got to win
The water’s down and the night is riding in
That storm is still on time, oh my coffee’s on the line
Oh Lord, you’ve got to win »
