Admittedly I don’t know shit about shit when it comes to the safe and proper administration of vaccines, so maybe there’s a solid reason for all of this carrying on about how reserving doses so that people are able to get their second COVID shot is all of a sudden bad. But what I do […]

Help Earl And Kelly Harrison
I just saw this and wanted to link to it. I used to listen to Earl Harrison review technology on ACB Radio’s Main Menu years ago. I also ran into him at a GDB convention once. I was on a mailing list with his wife some time ago. Now I just read that he is […]
There’s No Place But Home For The Holidays
Welcome to our new lockdown, Ontario. Because of this occasion, I updated an old Christmas favourite with words for the present circumstances. In case you don’t know the song… Oh, there’s no place but home for the holidays We’re all locked down, there’s nowhere you can roam. Take your Christmas online, there’s a million ways. […]
Amazon Of Old
I was talking to someone over the weekend and at some point, the subject turned to the pandemic. Strange, I know. I made the point that if we have to go through an event like this, I’m glad that we’re doing it now rather than 30 or 40 years ago. Back then, we’d be screwed. […]
Sweet Dreams Are Not Made of Coronavirus
As this stupid virus drags on, I’m happy I’m not having as many dreams about it as I did at the beginning. But I still have had a couple wacky ones so I thought I would write them down. The first one was the longest and most drawn out. I had it a few months […]
Santa Claus Can Come Through Your Town
I had a good laugh when I saw this news story about Santa being deemed an essential worker. How very smart of everyone. I think if we were kids in the pandemic, we would have been all worried that Santa couldn’t come during the lockdown. Heck, if we were going to go to Grandma’s on […]
It’s No Secret. You’ve Got Coronavirus!
Remember when I had that dream about sweating Coronavirus? Well, we might, and dogs might be able to smell it. In this new study, researchers based in France and Lebanon took sweat samples from the underarms of a total of 177 patients from four hospitals in Paris and one in Beirut — 95 had tested […]
Delivering A Christmas Post, Because I’m Not UPS
As I sit here the day after Steve’s birthday, I feel a bit bewildered. How did we get here? The year went fast, but it feels especially fast since this year had no great big fun events since March. Wow, I totally suck and never commented on Steve turning 40 last year. I guess to […]
Pepper Says Don’t Sneeze On Me
Looks like they’ve found another use for our pal Pepper the bank bot. She’s now tooling around a mall in France reminding people to wear masks. I sure hope nobody’s beaten her up. Some folks can get awful touchy about that. If you want to give her a knock or two for the bank stuff […]
I’ll Stay Home For Christmas
This morning I gathered up a big load of Christmas presents, put on my coat and mask and headed downstairs. My mom was waiting for me. We said hello, and then I proceeded to pile my bunch of gifts into her car. When that was done, I stood back as she unloaded several bags of […]
