Howard Donald (55) is the oldest member of Take That who performed as a trio at the Coronation Concert yet with his shaggy haircut and grey beard, he is the one I resemble the most. Hell, even their slow-mo dance steps are a far cry from their energetic boy band routines in the mid-1990s in […]

Secular Sunday – “Indiana public librarians forced to remove half the books in the teen section as demanded by unelected library board including a pro-book banning pastor”
Just as we watched drug poisonings and Narcan training spread across American libraries before becoming more common in Canada, I suspect religiously-motivated book banning requests (and religious board members being even more activist in trying to direct library’s directions, not just individual books) is the next thing American libraries will export to Canada. (via r/atheism)
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – “I Am *Not* Napping IN Here!” (May 2013)
I feel like posting this picture online is enough to get a call to the authorities! 😉
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Drop Everything And Read, Regina Coronation Park (April 2017) #skpoli
By most accounts, Sask Party MLA Mark Docherty was a decent dude. I know I always enjoyed my interactions with him – when he would come to the library I was working at for events or programs or when I would bump into him at community events or whatever. Given his background and resume, I’ve […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – My First Gmail Message (June 2004)
Not sure how I stumbled upon this but poking around my Gmail account recently (which I have used since day one as my secondary account for entering contests, subscribing to newsletters I’ll never read and generally trying to target spam there so rarely look at it), I found the first message I ever sent to […]
Why The Flames Sucked This Year (It’s A Long List)
Now that the playoffs have started and the Flames, who were predicted to be a top team at the start of the season, missed making the playoffs in the final week of the season. That means they end up in their traditional “absolutely middle of the pack” position they usually get in years they suck, […]
Secular Sunday – SNL Alum Victoria Jackson Goes on Rant Saying Her “Loving” God Hates LGBT+ People
The hypocrisy is strong with this one as she tells a local city council meeting that the Bible tells her that God hates “pride” but also ends by warning people to avoid being brainwashed. (And as a side note, I legitimately don’t know how she ever got on SNL as I never found her very […]
Saturday Snap – Camping Season Is Coming
Yesterday I posted about spring seeding and today I’m posting a picture the in-laws sent of our camp site – has it been a long winter or what?
Friday Fun Link – Everything About Grain Bins (Farmers Are Geniuses)
Spring feels like it’s (almost) here. Even though I haven’t been directly involved in farming for years, like many in Saskatchewan, I start thinking about seeding at this time of year. Here’s an interesting video but unfortunately he doesn’t cover survival strategies if your dad makes you shovel out a grain bin on a super […]
