I read this in the Guelph Mercury the other day, and all I could think at the end was, “What a waste!” That and “we’ve learned exactly what from this waste?” I’d link to it, but the only way to see this particular article is by subscribing to the paper, so I can’t. Recreated 1918 …

A Big Basket of Confusion
Lately I’ve been seeing this commercial on TV. It started appearing in December, and it persists now. It plays Jingle Bells and a British woman who is apparently plump tells you that you should discover the magic of a Chrisco Christmas hamper, and for as low as $3.75 a week, you can get a hamper …
A Big Heap of…Stuff
Woohoo, random post time. I don’t know if this one will amount to much, but oh well, hopefully we’ll have fun while it lasts. I think I heard the coolest virus name ever. Oh god I’m declaring my supreme geekiness by saying that I think some virus names are cool. But some just sound neat. …
Cool! a New Fan!
I stumbled across Ann’s Blog through Thordora’s blog, liked it, and said hello. I guess she popped over here, and seems to like our stuff. So Yea woo to that. So I just wanted to say a quick hello to her and say I’m putting her in the links zone down there. Have a look …

Ooo! I Hit a Nerve!
Wow! People read us for other reasons than a stop on their journey for the holy grail that is Randy Orton’s penis! I got chomped in the comments section under my post about MADD, and I think it needs addressing up here. So here it is, from Lisa. I work for MADD and you seem …
This is Great!
Jen sent me this, and I love it! I love making fun of chain letters and virus hoaxes, and this email manages to make fun of them both simultaneously. So here it is. If you receive an email entitled “Bedtimes” delete it IMMEDIATELY. Do not open it . Apparently this one is pretty nasty. It …
Comments Are Working Again
Whatever issues the commenting system was having seem to be all cleared up now, so feel free to use it again. But if you’d rather email, that’s fine too. Sometimes email is better anyway, especially if you’ve got something that you really don’t want us to miss, like an update to something we’ve written about, …
What Does MADD Stand For?
I always thought it was Mothers Against Drunk Driving. But its founder’s name is…John! And its president’s name is…Steve! How did these men become mothers? Are they hermaphrodites? That’s the only explanation I can come up with.
