Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
I love it when unrest happens right in my own back yard, though I guess in my case it would be parking lot. I was typing something up a few minutes ago when what sounded like a commotion caught my attention, so I stepped out to investigate. I’m glad I did, because we now have …

>I’ve been meaning to write this thought pile down for a while, but for some reason, I just couldn’t get started. Even now, it isn’t flowing like it usually does. Oh well, hopefully it will pick up before it’s done. I can’t believe I’m halfway through that French class I joined. Things are going very …
Wow! Without even meaning to, I just broke a kid’s heart! Hopefully I managed to put it back together. I took Trixie out for her usual business routine. As we come out the door, we usually go up to the left into the bushes. If we cut to the left too soon, we hit a …
Remember back when I said I was going to take a conversational French class? Well, today I started it, and although we had a couple of bumps, I think dear old French teacher and I are going to get along fine. First, let me describe my entrance to the class, because it was, well, unceremonious. …
This has happened to me twice now. I ordered two different things from the states from two different companies, and I ordered them both over the phone. In both cases, when I said Guelph, they wrote down “Guelth!” I even spelled it, and they still thought my p was a t! Do I mumble that …

Explain this logic to me. You go to a store and buy some things. You have a backpack on. You say you’d like to put the things you bought in the backpack so your hands will be free. The people at the store help you put a bunch of stuff in the backpack, and then …
Remember when I said that I thought evolution was removing people’s ability to see? Now I think they’re losing their ability to listen. People can hear, but they just can’t process what they’re hearing worth a shit. Here’s one example. I went into the post office. I told the lady that I had to mail …
I just had an interesting and highly illogical conversation with a nice woman from the March of Dimes who was going around our building to sign people up for something called the Dime Plan, a monthly donation scheme to benefit the physically disabled. She told me that I didn’t have to part with any money …

This story about an assisted suicide facility in Switzerland moving in next to a brothel is a little quirky, but this statement jumped out at me. The only problem ever is that Dignitas (the assisted suicide centre) doesn’t advertise its presence – and a lot of people get lost and have to ask for directions. …
