Refer Madness

Over the years, I’ve occasionally posted about some of the  search terms that were bringing people to my blog.  I did this once a few months after starting my blog in 2006 and again during the 2009 NDP Leadership Race and probably a few other times as well. I thought it might be interesting to re-visit the [...]

A Partial and Incomplete List of Reasons the NDP Lost The BC Election #skpoli #bcpoli #ndp

I went to a noon hour presentation at the Johnson-Shoyama School of Public Policy on “The BC Election and What It Means For Saskatchewan“.   One presenter got a good laugh off the bat joking about how he had to tear up his speaking notes in light of the stunning come-from-behind victory of the Liberals [...]

Saturday Snap – I’m Going To Pay For This One Someday…

The Dangers of Vertical Video Syndrome

I, too, used to do this… …until I realised there was a better way. For the love of Dog, people, turn your camera phones sideways!

Music Monday – “Oh Mr. Mom/Balancing check books, juggling bills/Thought there was nothing to it/Baby, now I know how you feel/Oh Honey, you’re my hero”

iPotty

26 Reasons Kids Are Just Tiny Drunk Adults

A funny list from BuzzFeed.

I’m a Dad – Random Thoughts About Sasha’s First Day (On Her One Week Birthday)

So as much as I’d like to just keep posting pictures of Sasha, eventually I’ve got to get back to blog posts that have “letters” and “words” rather than cute pictures. A good place to start would be with a look back at that first day, inspired partly by many of the notes I scribbled [...]

Music Monday – “And We’re Glad, Glad, Glad/You’re a Glide”

I’ve made a few passing references to my semester exchange to England in 1995 on this blog but I don’t know if I’ve ever told the story in a bit greater detail. I will do that someday for sure as that four month period remains (and *please* don’t tell Shea I said this!) ;-), the [...]

Saturday Snap – Belly Labels

Stole this idea from Pinterest…
