Distinctly evil of me, I know...

I'm a bad person sometimes. Well -- not bad bad, but certainly somewhat malevolent and ruthless when the occasion arises. And sometimes I have a moral code that sits a few dozen metres (or kilometres) or so outside of what people would consider normal or acceptable.

Yesterday, the small guy (nephew) and I went to the CN Tower before he hightailed off to North Bay with my mum. As we admired the great skyscrapers of the downtown core, he asked me what they all were. "Is CIBC a bank, Auntie Hannah?"

The most dominent and tall structures were all banks -- CIBC (Canadian Imperial Bank Of Commerce), Bank Of Montreal, Scotia Bank, TD-Canada Trust... Vexing indeed.

In the news this morning, there was story about a group of masked men who had robbed a branch of a CIBC and taken off with large quantities of cash. They have not yet been caught.

And I felt a smug swell of satisfaction at the news.
