Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
I love many things in this life. Two of those things happen to be plugging things I’m involved in in any way and easy blog content. So let’s scratch both of those itches at once, shall we? As you may recall, last Thursday was Access Recreation Day, and Carin had a pretty big hand in …

A couple of weeks ago, a reporter from the Guelph Mercury called our house looking for me. That’s not something that happens every day, so as I walked to the phone my mind raced through the last little while, trying to remember if I’d done anything stupid lately. Luckily, it turned out I hadn’t, even …
Remember back when I posted about Access Recreation Day? Remember how it was off in the future? Well, it’s today! The day has arrived, and we watch all our hard work pay off. It looks like we’re going to have a fun day. We’ve got 9 organizations setting up booths, an information table with brochures …
Neither of these incidents will ever find itself in the bad time for whackin’ off hall of fame, but they’re worth a mention since it’s rare that this sort of thing happens here in guelph, home of Vomit Comet World HQ.

Well, tomorrow, a couple of us are getting interviewed on “Inside Guelph” about it. If you can get Rogers TV cable 20 …
Last week, when the election was over, the news was filled as it always is with reactions from winners and losers. Reporters caught up with various candidates to hear about what went right, what went wrong and what the future may hold. All of Guelph’s major candidates and even some of the fringe ones got …
Yes, more election things. I’m happy to say that it looks like the voter turnout went up. It didn’t go up by much, but at least it went in the right direction instead of setting a new record low like happened in 2008. That year, only 59.1% of voters bothered, but this year the numbers …

Last night, Canada sent a message. It’s quite the confusing message, but one was most definitely sent. I’m not even sure where to start, but I guess starting at the top would make sense. Stephen Harper and the Conservatives won a majority. What the…how the…why the…who are you people!? I wish I could get inside …

Update: Here is a more complete story from the Mercury. The previous link was a note on the paper’s election blog, but this has much more information. Whoever’s doing this is really making a day of it. Complaints are said to be numbering in the hundreds, swamping elections Canada’s local office here. I’m not sure …
