Wow! I never know what people are going to choose to search for and come to our site. Ever since I wrote the post about the herbal king, we’ve had at least 5 searches for this king, some seeming to wonder if it is a scam. Let me save them some time and say, make …

Ploughing Down the Stupid
Ok, any way you slice this story, it’s stupid. At 2:00 a.m., a bunch of people were milling around downtown looking for rides. They started banging on random vehicles asking if they’d give them a drive. Now here’s where it gets confusing. The radio said a woman pounded on the window of a pickup truck …
Sue! Sue! Yes I’m Gonna Sue!
I don’t quite know why this bugs me, but it does. Here’s a quick rundown of a story I just read in the Guelph Mercury. Old man gets on bus. Bus goes back into traffic before old man is seated, old man falls, breaks a hip, an arm and gets heavily bruised, old man can …
Wow, Just…Wow!
I mentioned earlier that it’s getting harder and harder for me to find things in the news that I truly consider weird. Well, that bar is about to be set even higher. Observe. A man who was found dressed in latex and handcuffs brought a donkey to his room in a Galway city centre hotel, …

Really, someone should call me a waaambulance for this post. but I don’t care. I can’t sleep. It’s 3 in the morning. I wake up. Ever since I’ve gotten the doggy news, I’ve been lucky if I’ve slept past 4 a.m. For the first couple of nights, I understood why. I was excited. I had …
Why Can’t all Spam Be This Funny?
Every time I look at this, I start laughing again. I don’t know why I even read this message. It was in my spam folder, and something about the subject line caught my attention. I figured it was probably a steaming heap of bullshit, but I wanted to read it to make sure. Am I …
Barenaked Ladies Concerts Are Me
I really wanted to write this post a hell of a lot sooner, but I was either too tired to give it the coolness it deserved, or the guide dog stuff had taken over my brain. But I think now, the time is right. Hope I can do this justice. Back a while ago, under …
