Welcome to a quick Sunday night GUS photodiary. It's a long weekend up here in Canada -- Civic Holiday weekend, one of those socialistic, Godless days off that the government gives us for no reason. I'm off to visit my sister for a couple of days starting tomorrow afternoon, so I won't be around much before Wednesday night. I will miss you all, but I promise I'll be back.
I was watching random talks at the TED.com website and caught a talk from one of the world's most eminent astronomers, Martin Rees, Baron Rees of Ludlow (wiki info here). In honour of his profession, here's some snapshots taken by the Hubble telescope.
And finally, just because it's the song that Winamp dialled up as I was finishing this diary:
Have a great evening, GUSsacks!
