After an extremely long day, I’m pretty tired. Hopefully I’ll revisit my TedxRegina experience in the next day or two. But for now…

Music Monday – “Thought you’d do right by me/But who am I kidding/You’re the Sask Party/Shows like Corner Gas/I guess you don’t remember.”

I went to the massive rally by the Saskatchewan film industry at noon today and it was quite the spectacle. In Saskatchewan, when we have protests, it tends to be farmers rolling their tractors up to the Legislature that creates a big scene. But the film community, as you might expect given their skills, put […]

“There’s a bear…strung up. I assume murdered. Maybe a suicide. I dunno.”

Christopher Walken read’s “Where The Wild Things Are“. Probably a fake but either way, wow, just wow.

Happy May Day!

You’ll see this graphic a lot more in a couple days as “May the Fourth Be With You”. But I think this variation is quite appropriate for May Day:

Music Monday – “I’m a Pilsner drinking, whitetail hunting, purple burning, stubble jumping, slough bogging, prairie dogging, rod and reeling, snowmobiling, genuine big ski sun of a gun from Saskatchewan.”

I knew of Tim Hus before but discovered this song due to the magic of Rdio.  Not too often I hear my hometown name-checked in a song!  (“Moose Jaw and Indian Head/It ain’t as flat as everyone says”

A Bad Year for Computers (And It’s Only April)

It’s funny how we sometimes get locked into one mode of thinking, no matter how much evidence there is to the contrary. For example, when we were first planning our Hawaii trip, I decided that the best option for taking photos was to use my iPhone.  At the time, I thought I could purchase some […]

Saturday Snap – Space Aliens Grill & Bar

A BBQ restaurant with a Space Alien theme AND video arcade? Definitely my favorite place in Minot!

Music Monday – “So we’ll march day and night/By the big cooling tower/They have the plant/But we have the power”

RPL had a successful strike vote tonight which means this is my theme song for the foreseeable future…

Reddit Timeline

I’ve done some April Fool’s jokes on this blog before but this year, it sort of snuck up on me so I didn’t have anything planned.  Instead, I’ll link to a new sub-Reddit that was created just to track various 2012 April Fool’s stuff from around the web. Speaking of Reddit, they had their own […]
