I was going through some old papers in a box under the stairs recently and came across a folder of articles I’d clipped and saved, long before most articles from popular magazines were available online from databases or from the magazine’s own web site like they are today.

I could’ve used this when we lived in Calgary but honestly, this is all I needed to know: 1. Hop N Brew (right next door to where my office was – dangerous!) 2. Drum & Monkey (also down the street from my office – sat there for like ten hours from noon on to hold […]

As mentioned yesterday, Peaky Blinders is Shea and my’s current viewing obsession. Here’s a taste… Watching this show now and over the years, a series of buzzed upon shows ranging from “Breaking Bad” to “The Wire” to “Sons of Anarchy” to “Yellowstone” along with various others which fit in that “Must Watch” category, I wondered […]
I’m not 100% sure but I think this is a picture of the box when I bought my last laptop, a MacBook Pro, sometime in 2012? I’ve had a few maintenance things over the years – I think I replaced the hard drive, added memory going from 4 to 8GB, bought a new power […]
