No matter who wins elections, it’s often the behind-the-scenes articles and books that come out afterwards that are the most interesting in revealing the strategies, infighting and plain lucky breaks that make things go well or go, well, just about as bad as they went for Hillary Clinton a month ago. This is a very […]
10. Buying a drink at a local drug store recently, I got asked if I qualified for the “55+ Senior Discount”? (Apparently I should’ve bought a kit to dye this 43 year old’s grey beard!) 9. The Sask Party has announced a massive one billion dollar deficit which echoes the fiscal mismanagement of Brad Wall’s […]
Holy fucking shit! After saying yesterday that the polls were predicting a Hillary Clinton victory with 75-99% certainty, her campaign flamed out like perhaps no other campaign in history. Yesterday, I went from joking about whether she could flip traditionally Republican states like Alaska and Utah to having two hours of sleep and actually *puking* […]
I’m still not a huge Hillary fan for all manner of reasons but she has grown on me as the election has progressed.

(When […]
Here’s one of the songs I taped at the Fred Eaglesmith show on Saturday night (which just happens to be one of my favourite Fred Eaglesmith songs of all-time.) “White Rose” – Fred Eaglesmith Actually, speaking of my favourite Fred songs, why not turn this post into a list? Jason’s Top 10 Fred Eaglesmith Songs 1. […]
(My “Saturday Snap” name has never seemed more appropriate as I post some thoughts and photos of our visit to the new Mosaic Stadium. I meant to have these up Saturday night but supper with friends after the game then an awesome Fred Eaglesmith concert meant I didn’t finish this post until Sunday.) — Shea […]
Most Common Librarian Names include Johanna, Abigail, Margot, Nanette, Julia, Eleanor. (The data set apparently only looks for common names that aren’t found in other fields. So a popular name like “John” or “Jennifer” which is fairly common across all areas won’t show up unless it is an outlier – eg. *extremely* popular in a […]
“I’m going to reveal the truth of the biggest conspiracy in political history right now. Hillary Clinton asked me to run because she thought I could help her undermine the Republican Party.
