Here’s a shot of the elementary school I attended growing up. I took this picture when we were back to Indian Head for a visit a few years ago but the look of the building including that 1980’s colour scheme hasn’t changed. (The playground however has changed quite a bit.) We went past my elementary […]
No matter your politics, the late Jim Flaherty (who was Stephen Harper’s Finance Minister) is widely regarded as a stand-up guy – honest, sincere, and reliable. That’s what makes Flaherty’s reaction to Stephen Harper talking about the Mike Duffy payment by Nigel Wright during Question Period in the House of Commons so incriminating. Tim Powers, vice-chairman […]
Back from nearly two weeks’ straight of camping… We spent a week up at Good Spirit Provincial Park near Yorkton, had a few days back in Regina to re-stock over the August long weekend (very strange to be driving in to Regina as an endless stream of campers were heading out!) We then went down […]
Shea and I may or may not have recently subjected ourselves to one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. We probably should’ve just watched the (honest) trailer and/or some video reviews. Make sure you watch the “Elders React” one – it’s hilarious!
We got home Monday which would’ve made it perfect to post this as my weekly Music Monday video. But instead, I somehow thought it was Tuesday so I didn’t bother even bother. I’m posting it now with belated thanks to the person who posted it on my Facebook wall…
As a general rule, I tend to prefer public ownership of essential services – utilities including power, natural gas and telephones; grain marketing (especially as opposed to ownership by Middle Eastern corporations) and, of course, liquor. 😉 Under the Brad Wall government, Saskatchewan has opened a couple private liquor stores recently including one in a former steak house […]
Not sure if I’ve ever posted this before but I’ve watched it numerous times. Always cracks me up by reminding me of some of the crazy stupid stories my friends and I tell each other about our own wild times in high school and college.
When I worked for a regional library system, many of our libraries were located in unusual locations – many co-located with a town office, a school that had been closed, a fire hall, a laundry mat. And of course we had one that was in a hockey rink – whose main doors became the entrance […]
So there are about a gabzillion people running for the Republican presidential candidate nomination. What’s a latecomer to the race left to do to get people talking? How about release a slice of life attempt at a “viral video” featuring mommy and daddy telling their kids daddy’s decided to run for President? So bad… the camera […]
Pace got locked in his room after the door mechanism gave out the other day and we couldn’t open the door, even though it doesn’t actually have a real lock on it. Look at that sad face…
