It seems like I say this every time I start one of these things, but I have to say it again. It’s been way too long since we’ve done this, sorry about that. It’s also been way too long since I’ve done pretty much anything around here, so sorry about that too, unless you hate …

Snopes.com is the Best!
Man, I learn something new every day. Somebody was freaking out about the old scam where people used to phone businesses and get them to dial some numbers, and because of that, the person asking the business to dial numbers would get access to their long distance. So I went to get the status of …
Don’t ask the Question if You Don’t Want the Answer!
I love it when people ask you a question because they have to, and then seem completely upset that you actually want to give them a response. I had to call the lovely people over at OSAP, that is the Ontario Student Loan centre. Every time I call, I first get the automated system. It …

Something to Ponder
Let me take you back to May of 2005. Peter MacKay has just broken up with Belinda Stronach. He says. “I think I’ll go home and walk my dog. At least dogs are loyal.” Now, let’s speed forward to 2006 when he calls Belinda Stronach a dog. Maybe…maybe he’s paying her a complement? Or maybe …
A Few Ways to Be a Little More Helpful
To everybody who posts apartment listings: when choosing between whether to mention how much the damn thing costs or to gush about the apartment’s view, you might want to choose to mention the rent.

A Bunch of Crap to Try and Fill the Void

Wow, am I ever lucky!
For a while, when I thought about writing this post, I was afraid it would sound like that whole twisted appreciation concept I was talking about last year. But I will try not to make it sound that way. Just recently, I had to do some training for a place where I volunteer. The organization …
I Drank Tea, Look Out, World!
Oh boy. This morning, I woke up and decided I felt like having a cup of tea. Sometimes, I can have tea, and nothing will happen. But sometimes, sometimes, … the sheer tornado of energy created by having a tea rivals the cuppa soup craze! And that’s what I feel right now. So I’m going …
Brownie Camp? Try Boot Camp!
I get some interesting responses when I tell people I’ll be heading away to guide dog school. Some people are just shocked that I have to go away for a month, some people want to know what happens there. And some people think I’m going away for a month for a vacation. I mention where …
The Pedestrians on the Street go Squish Squish Squish?
If some day I’m no longer posting on here and I mysteriously disappear, you can probably guess that I was hit by an insane driver. What is with the drivers up in this part of town? It’s like they don’t bother to look at traffic lights and just barge on through. I know we live …
