Bloor was closed
off to traffic from Bathurst, I assumed to Spadina, for the Annex Family
Festival, so I rode north on Bathurst. I decided to go all the way to St Clair
and then to go east. I don’t think I lost any time. I went to Airdrie and
Bayview and then took Airdrie east. I continued past Millwood and dipped down
the side streets to Sutherland. One of those streets was McRae, where a couple
of storefronts have had their signs painted over and they are clearly being
used as residences. There are a lot of new buildings in the area but it’s
pretty run down anyway. Airdrie ended at Crofton, so I went to Laird and headed
south. I had to pee so I stopped at the Golden Griddle. It was a crappiest
Golden Griddle I’d ever been in, but I didn’t need to ask to use the washroom
this time.
At Yonge and St
Clair was a variety store with an ad on their window with a picture of a guy
holding a little black bottle. The caption said, “Having trouble sleeping? I
get a great night’s sleep with Dream Water!” It sounds so nice it’s creepy.
It’s probably a harmless placebo though. I looked it up and found that there is
already one lawsuit against the stuff in Florida. Another article by someone
that seems to know his chemicals says that one of the ingredients may cause a
reaction when taken along with several medications. Also there are no
peer-reviewed studies of the product.
