So last Saturday we had a party for the shoe thief. Back about a month ago, Shoe turned 40! We wanted to do something special for him, but between Steve feeling sick and one of Shoe’s friends being unavailable because of being on the other side of the world, we put off his party until …

I Call For A Code Blew My Mind
I saw this a while ago, but couldn’t find a story on it. If you collapse in a hospital, you would think that you would have help readily available, right? Apparently not at Peace Arch Hospital in White Rock, B.C. according to Stephen Braybrooke. His father collapsed feet from a nursing station, and the nurses …
Well, Now They Have A Bigger Ashtray
Here’s another lesson. If you use a hole in your house’s floor as an ashtray, this may happen to you. Your house may catch fire and it might cause $30000 in damage, if you’re lucky. A hole in the floor as an ashtray? What?
Watch Out For Carma. It’ll Snow Ya!
Here’s a story fit to make me cackle. Three punks decided that they had the perfect situation. A nasty snow storm was causing lots of motorists to be stuck. So, they would arrive next to the stuck car, and the desperate motorist would think they were coming to help. But no no no. they were …
And What Have We Learned Today, Boys And Girls? Your Supply Teacher Is Crazy!
It looks like William Amory believes in the Home Depot Pry Bar guy philosophy for dealing with uncooperative devices. Break stuff. But Ammory doesn’t restrict his rage to the offending device. Oh no.

Whatever Counts For A Brain Got Frozen Too.

Did his equipment fail him? Nope, he wasn’t adequately dressed for the weather. He didn’t think it would be so cold. …

Good Things Grow In Ontario, And They Just Got Easier To Buy
Ooo! This little story about the 100 Mile Market coming to Guelph makes me drool. Mmm local food. Local food you can order online and then scoop up at a depot. Local food that you can order online, scoop up at a depot and not have to fight crowds at the market just to find. …

Some More People On That Bus With Tim McLean Want Heads To Roll
You know, when I said that the McLean family suing everyone related to the Greyhound stabbing was a little ridiculous, I had no idea that a more ridiculous lawsuit was possible. Now, I know. Two women who were on the bus when the incident happened have decided that they need to sue the exact same …

She May Be Toothless, But She’s Not Grinning.
What’s up with this? A dude, for no reason that is given, pushed his disabled mother down, choked her, and ripped out her upper dentures. What? Why? Even weirder is this isn’t the only case I’ve heard of some random guyripping out people’s dentures. Now the only question is whether Christopher Harding rips lots of …

If That Isn’t Cruelty To Animals, What Is?
What the? Apparently, you can marinate your cat and not be found guilty of cruelty to animals. And how exactly is that possible? Maybe someone close to Gary L. Korkuc can explain what is not cruel about that. Meanwhile, I’ll be shaking my head.
