So, let’s take a poll. How many of you agree with 250 British children in your disdain for clowns? Apparently, every single one of those kids, who ranged in age from 4 to 16, found the clowns frightening. I never found clowns frightening. Some were a little weird, but some were funny! The only part …

The Holiday Post AT A Not So Holiday Time
Ok, so it’s January 15 and I’m finally writing a post about Christmas and such. Um, I suck. Hopefully I don’t end up boring people to death. Christmas was actually a pretty good one. Usually, it consists of being run ragged doing a 300-mile trek to see my mom’s side of the family…and then potentially …

Commuting Is Better Than It Ever Was, I’m Taking It Easy, When I Take The Bus?
Sorry, I don’t agree. After having to commute by bus for a week while I had a temporary job, I don’t think so. I kept hearing that old jingle for Ottawa’s transit system in my head every morning and thinking that if they picked it up for Guelph, I’d have to shoot someone. Commuting is …

Ho Ho Holy Shit It’s Almost Christmas!
I just had a few Christmas thoughts, as I run around madly trying to get things done before I head to the land of dialup and choking computers. That’s still a few days away, but I have a lot to do! Am I the only one who, as a kid, thought that song about “Have …
Love And Marriage…And Plugs And Whining
Well, long time, no chat. I’d apologize for not being around a whole lot over the last little while, but to be honest, I doubt any of you really missed me all that much if you missed me at all. So where have I been? Well for starters, my sleep has gone to hell in …
Living Rooms And Room For The Dead?
Ok, hopefully someone can explain this one to me. I’ve seen this in a couple of towns, so I know it’s not just some kind of freak thing. There will be a furniture store, and right next door, a funeral home. Both are owned by the same people! What is that? That is the weirdest …
Google’s In My Head!
I’m trying to write this without sounding like a paranoid nutbar. I will probably fail. Oh well. I’ve probably sounded like many different varieties of nutbar before, so what’s another kind? I want you to think. think of when you first remember hearing about the Google search engine. Can you remember? Can you remember someone …
Fishy License Plates
I was downtown with a friend, and we saw a car drive by with a personalized license plate that said “hot tuna”. Uh, what could that possibly mean? I know what the sick part of me thinks it means, but is there any good reason why someone would put that on their car? *gag*. Or …
You Did Have A Problem, But We Fixed It. Carry On!
Explain how this is supposed to work. I have a Feedburner account so we can have the funky doodle RSS and email thing up there in the top of the page. Cool! One of the services Feedburner offers is called Feed Bulletin. It says that it will send messages to you when the feed goes …

Call Idiocy
I’ve noticed a weird trend in the way people use their call display. they’ve gone nuts with it! I really started to notice it when people would phone me back just because my number was on their display. They’d say, “You called. What did you want?” First of all, who are you, and second, I …
