Music Monday – “God save the queen/’Cause tourists are money/And our figurehead/Is not what she seems” (aka Decorum and The Queen’s Death)
There are lots of interesting angles to the Queen’s death – cultural, historical, sociological, religious, etc. etc. – but one that fascinates me is this notion of “decorum”… https://www.twitter.com/MsPackyetti/status/1567987415704379393 There’s a parallel to gun violence in the States where politicians will quickly say “It’s not the time” to talk about gun violence…right after a mass […]
Who Makes The Best Public Library Workers?
A couple recent conversations with different colleagues has inspired a patented Headtale listicle…namely, what are some things that make a good library worker? 1. Someone who grew up listening to/playing/being part of the punk rock scene. *Every* person I know who fits this description has been an *amazing* library worker. 2. Someone who grew up […]
CTV Announces Library Themed Sitcom
I’m pretty sure every librarian (including me!) has thought “Why has no one made a TV show set in a library? Boy, people would sure be surprised that we don’t just circulate books but there are wacky staff! Buffoonish managers! Silly patrons! And lots and lots of overdoses. High-larious!” Well, now we’re getting our wish. […]
Secular Sunday – Tampa Bay Players Refuse To Wear Gay Pride Logo On Their Uniforms Saying Their Religion Forbids It
I always chuckle as how selective (some) Christians are about which “rules” they follow and even how they decide that these rules exist in a book that was written thousands of years ago. Tampa Bay Rays players refused to wear the Gay Pride logo on their uniforms this weekend — saying their religious beliefs wouldn't […]
Saturday Snap – Catching Up With An Old Friend
A lifelong buddy who now lives in Arizona and who we haven’t seen in years sent me a text that he was back in town for the weekend and wanted to meet for a pint. I was so excited I booked a time with him, completely forgetting that we’d also planned a family supper for […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Our Little Roughneck (August 2011)
I suspect I’m not the only person in Saskatchewan who has a complicated relationship with the oil and gas industry. I think even people who work in the industry and/or who are pro-oil know that there are environmental impacts (though they will argue about the extent of those impacts – anywhere from “oh, it’s just […]
Friday Fun Link – 1980s WWE Interview Outtakes
Some inappropriate jokes and banter here but still interesting to see wrestlers dropping their characters and joking around…
Saturday Snap – Supper With Friends (and Some Thoughts on the World We’re Living In)
Shea and I went for supper with some friends on Friday night and it was good to catch up, compare notes, and have a few laughs after not having done a restaurant meal with people who we’d normally go out with a few times per year before Covid. (We have done virtual happy hours/outside visits/potlucks […]
