The Future Smells Like Hamburgers

The Winnipeg effect isn't limited to those who spend their lives there. As we move around the continent we pull a swirling ball of increased probability of meeting someone we know. The more time one spends in the Peg, the more charge will carry with you as you explore the world. When needed, the Winnipeg effect releases a charge and will cause you to meet someone you know in a random place. Here is an example.
Yesterday I met Chris Jhons during my connection to the Honore Baugard line. Just as I was feeling like I didn't know anybody on the city, there he was. Kyle (Another friend) just happened to be stopping in Montreal before going to do his masters in Scotland. The three of us went out and had Montreal Smoked Meat. (It tastes like soft meaty cloves)
Afterwards, Kyle and I climbed Mont Royal to see what everybody was getting on about. We found a strange hard fruit the size of an orange. They were growing in the trees up there. The fruit smelled like my grandmothers flower arrangements and had a big pit in the middle. We also found a 1960 pavilion, ducks, fish, and picnic tables.
When we climbed down we drank 2 liters of Gatorade each. We then watched the final gathering of frosh week. Looking across the beautiful centre campus, I couldn't help but wonder if there were some future leaders of our country down there. McGill has a tradition of producing some of Canada's leading political figures. Then I noticed that the BBQ smelled great.
I looked over at Kyle, sitting there on the curb with his skater shoes and backpack... "The future smells like hamburgers". He agreed.
