Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
I guess I should probably update folks, since last Saturday I was all full of “help me! Help me!” I have myself a steady ride! Yeah baby! It’s hard to explain how stressful it is wondering if you’ll have rides to work, or wondering which days you should say you’re available based on who says …

It sure is rainy and crappy outside this morning. At least the wind we had during yesterday’s rainy crappiness has died down. At times it felt like what’s left of our balcony was going to come off the side of the building and fall to earth. It was brutal! Speaking of what’s left of the …
Remember back a few days ago when I said I would post more until life had other plans? Well, life already had other plans, and they take effect on Monday. Hopefully I’ll be around here still a fair bit, but it could be a little touch and go for a while. Remember when I talked …

Something got me thinking the other day. And when I get thinking, I end up thinking of weird things. While construction workers were busy remastering Guelph, part of the work involved digging up streets to do sewer lines etc. While they were busy going diggity diggity root root yank, they hit a gas line, and …

I’ll warn you right off the top that this post might be even more disjointed and sucky than usual. I’m a bit distracted by the pain in my right foot and it’s making me cranky. The thing hates me, but if I were it and I’d been injured so many times by me, I’d probably …

I wasn’t sure this needed a post, but since new Firefox sucks and the Guelph Mercury website insists on CAPTCHAs upon CAPTCHAs to accomplish anything, here goes. Dear Rob O’Flanagan: I don’t know you, but you seem like an interesting guy. From what I can tell you’re a good reporter, and I’ve enjoyed reading many …

Happy Saturday! Here’s your first audio of the day. If you listen to these things mainly for Carin, you may hate this one. I’m all by myself this time. Don’t worry, I only talk for about 8 minutes, so you won’t have to put up with me long. What we have here is just me …

Last year, Steve felt an earthquake. Yesterday, it was my turn. Wanna hear something weird though? Steve was in the same house and didn’t feel it! I came back in from a walk. I sat down and started looking through stuff. Suddenly, my chair went shake, bump, shake, bump. I thought maybe Trix was behind …

Well, hmmm. I mentioned the whole Top Freedom Fest thing a while ago. I should probably mention how it went.It didn’t. I guess the organizers didn’t manage to raise enough money for some of the performers, so they decided to settle for a march along the route that Gwen Jacob took when she was arrested. …

I recently had occasion to contemplate one of the world’s great childhood mysteries. A question that has seemingly plagued children in schoolyards and on playgrounds everywhere for generations. The other night, while enjoying a game of baseball and a cold beer in the friendly outdoor confines of my balcony, it happened. Carin, carrying on a …
