For a change I actually have some good news to report. A couple of weeks ago I wrote abig postabout the Menifee Union school district’s decision to ban students from using the Merriam Webster’s 10th edition dictionary because a parent complained that a slice of their precious crotch fruit accidentally (as if) discovered a definition …

Too Much Evil At Once
I don’t know what it is about the news right now, but I saw 3 particularly evil stories all in one day. It needs to stop. First up, we have the story of Ali Kimia, a man with the words “Why try” tattooed on his head. He sure did try…to kill the man he carjacked. …
Commuting Is Harder Than It Ever Was, I Can’t Get Out On Holidays, Cause I Take The Bus
Here’s a puzzler for ya. Guelph is cutting back, so it is not running its buses on holidays at all. They used to run on reduced hours, but they still ran. But this new change mildly pisses me off because the city puts on events on holidays and invites everyone to come out. And how …
The Disservice Chihuahua Case Is Dismissed
I saw this story, and, at the time, just went “ug!” I didn’t have the energy to post it, who knows why. Well, I’m going to now. Alex Allarie is the kind of person who makes me sick. He claims his chihuahua is a service animal, but he apparently let it sniff around food on …

It’s Neither Smart, Nor Bacon
I’m glad I’d eaten a little while before reading about this attrocity masquerading as bacon. They call it “smart bacon.” There is nothing in it that resembles bacon.

He Was Acting Like A Dog, He’s Where He Belongs
Oh my my my. That’s quite the arrest report on now ex-sheriff’s deputy Samuel Bledsoe. Something tells me he won’t have any luck getting his job back.

What A Way To Say Happy Valentine’s Day
Here’s a little tip for Torontonians. If you decide to go eat at Mildred’s Temple Kitchen, for god’s sake, don’t use the unisex bathrooms. For sure, don’t use them Valentine’s Day weekend. Why? Because the restaurant’s co-owner is encouraging people to have sex in there. Apparently, people have done it before, so they thought they’d …
Click And Go Maps: How Cool Is That?
Well, what else could I say about what I’m about to describe? This is so cool it has to come up with a new word for cooler than cool. In Touch Graphics have developed Click And Go Maps. What are click and go maps? They are walking directions designed with the blind in mind. They …
Is Mobile Blogging For International Customers Not Possible?
Well, I’m a step closer to my N86. I got a happy call from a good Rogers man to tell me that the phone is in the mail. Wooohooo. *drool*. But the poor widdow phone won’t be very useful to me until I get it all Talksed up, and I can’t do that until I …
