OH MY GOD THERE IS SOMETHING IN OUR LIVING ROOM THAT BEEPS RANDOMLY ONCE A DAY AND I HAVE NO GODDAMNED CLUE WHAT IT IS.

It's probably whatever needs the suction cup. Either that, or a phone tap from the FBI and NSA. Hi, guys! What, Echelon wasn't good enough for you?

I'm going to bed now before anything else in my home appears out of thin air or attempts to report me to a government agency.

Wow, I'm putting that in my Long-Term Perishables file. I love Quebec City, especially the old part of town. If I remember my history, your old house must have been a new construction at the time of Wolfe and Montcalm. If I get up there again, I may well take you up on it. Thanks!

P.S. The one major thing I did when I got the house was to get the chimneys open and up to code and get five of the fireplaces working (and also up to code). I'm very glad I did so.

P.P.S. With the big open ceilings, you might want to suggest to your friend that he install an extractor fan with reverse capabilities at the top of the house -- in winter it can push hot air down, and in the summer it can pull cool air up. It's on my amazingly long list of things I'd like to put into my house when free cash permits.
