No idea why I’ve never noticed them before, but this year I couldn’t help but take note of the Klomps Home & Garden commercials during our local news. I’m not much of a gardener so I’m sure that’s part of it, but I do tend to pick up on ad jingles and such fairly quickly […]

The Best American Election Day Promise
Hi there, American friends and neighbours. I have a song for you that I’m going to need you to listen to, keep in your heads and then act upon in early November or whenever you’re allowed to vote by mail. I won’t vote Trump…I wont’ vote Trump…I won’t vote Trump… Hey, Friends! This one’s a […]
Blah Talk
These Raw Talk and Talking Smack shows that WWE does. Who are they for? Who out there, when Raw in particular is over, wants more? By the time I get through the experience I’ve generally about had my fill of nonsensical yip yap and time filling gum flapping. I never watch anything live anymore, and […]
Asscade
Just gonna leave this here. Some time between 1am and 8:15am on September 13th, 2020, a residence located near the intersection of Starwood Drive and Eastview Road in the City of Guelph was entered through an unlocked back sliding glass door, while the residents were asleep. Nothing was taken, however the culprit defecated on the […]
Can We Just Build A Wall Around America And Be Done With It?
I know people don’t much like the word in this context anymore, but this is retarded. Completely and utterly fucking retarded. So retarded that actual retarded people would look at the person who would make a decision like it and say “what are you, retarded?” A federal judge has struck down Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf’s […]
Stay Off The Phone
A couple items worth noting from the Record’s latest OPP Roundup. On Sept. 4 at 2:30 p.m., police saw a motorist using a cellphone while driving on Highway 401 in Thames Centre, near London. When they pulled over the car, police found $800,000 worth of dried, packaged cannabis and $130,000 in cash. A Toronto man, […]
Your Goose Is Cooked Because My Lunch Isn’t
Another one I missed at the time, but police in France are looking for the person who shot a waiter to death last summer because his food was taking too long. I say are looking for because I’ve been unable to find any updates that say the search is over. Police say a murder investigation […]
Try Before You Buy
I haven’t been seeing nearly as much of this sort of thing lately (Virus keeping all of them at home?), especially not ones starring women. A Fort Pierce cop was dispatched early Tuesday evening to the Lion’s Den Adult Superstore “in reference to a disturbance,” according to an arrest affidavit. En route to the business, […]
The Story Of The Save
I’ve been watching baseball forever, but there’s still a ton I don’t know about the game. One of those things, until today, was just how complicated the history of the save rule is. I started watching in the 80s, which means that the save as we know it has always been there for me. But […]
How About We Don’t Have An Election
Most Canadians comfortable with an election amid coronavirus — what would it look like? Count me firmly in the camp of not most Canadians, then. I’m not personally opposed to going out to vote right now. I don’t live in a region that’s currently overrun by disease, so I’m sure I would be fine. But […]
