I should at least do this in the right year. I don’t know if I wrote about my one great-aunt much. It doesn’t look like I did. She lived across the street from my grandma and they used to go back and forth pretty regularly. She was single her whole life, and seemed to enjoy …

A New Treatment For Diabetes! Sweet!
I just saw this CTV story about a new treatment for Type 1 diabetes and it looks pretty neat. From what I understand, this pouch full of cells gets implanted under the patient’s skin and mimics the pancreas, creating insulin in response to the amount of sugar in the blood. I do have questions though. …
Chow, Chau.
I’ve been wanting to write about this story since it came out, but I can’t seem to get going. All I can think to say is “hands off!” To be completely honest, I had the urge to tell him off in more vulgar ways, but since he’s dead, I’ll stick with “hands off!” for now. …
Some Of The Best And Worst Of Wrestling In 2018
There was a lot of good in wrestling this year. Impact has gotten much better, to the point that I actually look forward to it most weeks. 205 Live isn’t dirt useless anymore. NXT is still busy being NXT, which you’ll never hear me complaining about. There’s a British NXT now which looks pretty good, …

The Dork With The Barrett Tattoo
I read about this story 6 months or so ago and meant to write about it then. Since it still makes me chuckle whenever I think about it, I’ll write about it now. I heard about a guy who skipped parole and they were looking for him. When I saw Nathan Barrett’s description, my first …

I remember once saying to somebody during a wrestling conversation that part of the problem with WWE is that they seem to overthink so much that they end up underthinking. So much effort is put into making sure that everyone talks and acts the same and that everything sticks to the same patterns visually and …

Something Seems A Little Phishy
It seems like there has been a whole lot of phishing going on lately, and I have gotten a few emails that have given me a scare. Thankfully, after my heart went back into my chest, I realized that no, the CEO of the company I work for would not be emailing me from a …
Rassie In The Buppy In The Music Room
Ok, silly story time. I was talking to Brad on the phone, comparing Christmas notes since we weren’t together this year. During the call it came up that there was at least one more round of Rassie In the Buppy In the Kitchen, which reminded me that I had, a couple weeks earlier, tried to …
The 179 Days Of Christmas
If you’re in need of some festive holiday music to listen to as you gather with family and friends today, how about this nine hour version of the 12 Days of Christmas? To be clear, I do not suggest that any of you actually listen to this. It’s terrible. I made it to day 14 …
Recipe For A Fabulous Holiday
Gill is back to share her recipe for a happy holiday season. Hers involves a lot less liquor than mine does, but it’ll work. Hi friends. It’s that time again, and one of the big things around this time is time honored recipes. They might be generations old, like your 5 times oma’s recipe for …
