Orchid finally winding down

I bought an Phalaenopsis orchid WAY back in March. It was on sale, $20 at the local grocery store. During its glory days, it had 15 flowers on it. It's now down to 4 and the spike that doesn't have flowers has yellowed. Did some research and was advised to cut the spike as it's dead. :(

There's a new leaf growing so I guess it's still healthy,..perhaps I need to repot as the roots are overcrowded.

On to some good news,...finally surrendered and decided to look for a team to play with on weekends and summer league.

I have "try-outs" on Sunday with this team, I hope this team works out.

For those of you that don't know, I (or Neil would have me say, We) purchased a Honda Fit Sport. It is only On-Order basis right now, ETA mid July. Patience is wearing thin,...I want that car in my hot little hand now! (or rather, want my arse in the hot little car now!)

Had been checking some forums about the car...as usual, most of them are from the States. Apparantly, the demand for the vehicle is so high that dealerships are selling above MRSP! I've never heard of such a thing in Canada! Peeps are bitch'n and whine'n about the mark-up and the fact that there are now waiting lists. (?!) Folks that did get their car already said the min. TAT for the car is 6-8 weeks. Whoa! What are we buying here? The Hermes Birkin?

My dealer better not be lying to me when he said max. 4 weeks wait!
