You never know what will start a cascade of thoughts. It can be as simple as something I saw in our tracker. Something like this: 16 Jan, Sat, 04:19:33Google:dog wearing gloves Gloves? Like boots? Did they mean boots? I guess boots kind of look like mitts, mitts with soles on them. But do they really …

Does The B In Your Name Stand For Bubble?
I got an email from the CNIB begging me to join their “Right to Read” campaign. But they really need to change the campaign’s name to be more honest. It’s the “Save the CNIB library” campaign. That’s what it is, and all it is. First, let me say that I do appreciate the CNIB library. …

Sleep Talkin’ Man
I know I have said quite a few strange things in my sleep, as documented by this here comment thread, but I think Adam the Sleep Talkin’ Man has me totally beat. I hope Steve doesn’t get any crazy ideas about recording my snippets, although I don’t think I’ve had nearly as many good ones …
Adam Growe Was Fun, But I Didn’t Win Any Money
On Saturday, Steve, the shoe thief, another friend and I went to see Adam Growe, the guy who is the host of the Canadian version of Cash Cab. He was atthe River Run Centre. The way it was described sounded super weird. He was going to do a little one-man play, and then some kind …

Another Holly Update
A couple of weeks or so ago, I said I found out that Holly was going to have to get the tumour removed. I guess I should do a little update. The good news is she made it through the surgery as well as one can make it through crazy major 13-hour brain surgery. The …
A Cadillac On A Mission
This is a pretty cool story. Cadillac was a GDB puppy, but they decided that he just wouldn’t make it as a guide dog. So he became a search and rescue dog, and now he’s headed for Haiti to put his rescue skills to definite use. Good luck to him and his handler. Years ago, …
Don’t Make Me Turn This Car Around…And Drive It To The Police Station
Here’s a lesson a couple of 9-year-olds won’t forget. They didn’t like how their dad was singing in the car, so they started pulling his hair and punching his neck. So…he drove into the police station and had an officer tell them why they shouldn’t distract a driver. Great stuff. This reminds me of an …

Random Thought Post time
I had some thoughts floating around in my head so thought I’d put them down. I don’t know if this is long enough to lock the VO keys for, but hey, it might surprise me. I’m dangerous when I get going. God, all this bullshit with Stephen Harper suspending parliament just so he can avoid …
iSad
So today I went out to the mall to check out some phones. Remember that Christmas present my brother offered to get me? Well, I wanted to play with a couple of phones. There was the iPhone, and I’ve been debating getting a Nokia N86 because that phone can handle KNFB Reader, which I have …
The Long-Awaited, Long Holiday Post
I always write a post about the holidays. It’s just a matter of when. I’m crazy, and want to get through the easy stuff first before I sit down and crank out a giant epic. But it seems writing the holiday epic has become the thing I’ve done since Steve and Matt let me come …
