I may be the only one, but I was fully prepared to give Doug Ford a pass for buying that government jet. Part of this is a me thing, because I hate travelling. In a perfect world, wherever I’m going should never be more than an absolute maximum of an hour and a half away …

Baby Powder
If you’re planning to tool around town with three pounds of cocaine, there are certainly worse ways of disguising it than making it look like a great big pregnant belly. On paper, at least. Unfortunately, life isn’t lived on paper. If it were, it wouldn’t matter that you drive like an idiot. Or that you …
How Did He Get An Uber That Fast?
More than once in these pages I’ve mentioned that something said by George Carlin wasn’t just a bit to me, but also a life lesson. This, however, is not one of those things. If only I could have explained that to Christopher Everson here before everything went all to hell for him. On April 11, …

Mamma Mia, Pizzeria, Someone Went To Eataria
A restaurant getting shut down by the health department because a group of people were poisoned there and it also turned out to be infested with bugs is most definitely news, but not the sort of news we generally deal with here. But when all of that happens to you and you’ve named your restaurant …

The Incredible Dr. Pole
Pretty sure I emptied the old pun cannon on the title, so I’ll just go ahead and leave this here.
