10 Things Every Adult Should Know

So I've had this list of “10 Things Every Adult Should Know” kicking around for a few weeks, never sure when to post it.  I really like a lot of what the guy says…8. You have no right to be proud, unless you did it yourself. That goes for anything from racial pride to patriotism. […]

One Year Anniversary = Nap

Yesterday was my one year anniversary with Southeast Regional.  I was going to a post to celebrate the fact…but then I just went to bed early.  The last year's flown by but I think that has more to do with Pace than the job.  (Last night wasn't much better – Pace was up and down, […]

Pace's First Phone Call

Pace was babbling up a storm the other day while grandma was watching him.  So she rather ingeniously decided to call our Regina number and leave a message of his babbling so we could hear it later.  (I've got a neat feature enabled on my message manager that forwards all messages to us by e-mail […]

"Waffle House" – Bill Hicks

That MetaFilter (which I inevitably type as “MetaFitler” everytime I type it) thread on libraries led to this piece of Bill Hicks gold.  I also found a blog post about embarrassing/humiliating encounters while reading alone in a public (which I inevitably look over twice to make sure I don't type “pubic”) place.

Why The Toronto Maple Laffs Will Not Make The Playoffs

Okay, I just saw this because I was browsing the most viewed clips on YouTube.  And I went to look up the score to find that TO did end up winning the game.  But still, this is hilarious.  Best part?  It's a shorthanded goal to boot!

What level of education is required to read this blog?

(via Ceci N'est Pas Un Blog – Emily wasn't sure how she felt about getting that same “high school” rating for her blog.  I'm just happy I didn't get “remedial junior high” )

Big Beaver

Like many places, Saskatchewan has numerous towns with unique names – for example, Moose Jaw, Elbow, Eyebrow, Climax (which is just down the road from Conquest)!  Even my own hometown of Indian Head has provided the occasional laugh for the less politically correct among us (although the true reason it has that name is no […]

David Lee Roth on "American Idol"

The vocal-only track of David Lee Roth singing “Running With The Devil” has been making the rounds of the Internets but this is the funniest mash-up I've seen – what if Diamond Dave took his act to the American Idol audition room?  (I have no problem using the “humour” tag on this post but am […]

Happy Valenkeg's Day

When I was in undergrad, I was a regular at the Bushwakker Brew Pub for Robbie Burns Night each January.  Every year, they had a draw to go with the celebrations and on one particularly memorable occasion, I happened to win a free keg.  Since the next major holiday after Robbie Burns Night (barring Groundhog […]
