This song has always been incredibly powerful from when it became a worldwide smash in 1990 but it might even be more powerful to hear it now, nearly thirty years later, after Sinead O’Connor has led a life full of controversy and pain. “Nothing Compares 2 U” – Sinead O’Connor

12 Most Offensive South Park Episodes
Shea and I went to see “Book of Mormon” today, one of the most successful, long-running Broadway shows of all-time, written and produced by the same guys who made South Park. I’ve been a fan of South Park since someone told me about “Rainbows? I hate rainbows!” but I don’t watch it as religiously (pun […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – His Love of Parkour Started Early! (March 2012)
(This is also the cleanest his room has been in seven years as well since we’d cleared it out while preparing to paint it.)
El Camino: A Breaking Bad Trailer
Shea and I are binging “Handmaid’s Tale” right now and both loving it (while also regularly cringing!) but if pressed, I’d still say “Breaking Bad” is my favourite TV show of all-time.

Saturday Snap – Building A Playground Is Building A Community
With our respective schedules, Shea and I end up with one Friday off together each month.

The Only Connection Between 9/11 and Christmas?
9/11 might be the favourite day of the year for the conspiracy-minded posters on r/conspiracy. 🙂
A Taste of What The Public Library in a Village of 255 People Has To Offer…
Man, do I love small town libraries! And always great to see the amazing things happening across the regional system where I first worked after completing my MLIS 13 (!) years ago. Southeast Regional Library has a slogan “Not The Library You Remember” and though I think it’s mostly aimed at people who only remember […]
