Throwback Thursday – Halloween Surprise (Oct 2012)
Still one of my best “Creating Memories” dad moments. When he was little, Pace was massively into Batman. So I went out to Spirit of Halloween the night before Halloween and bought a Robin costume which I wore to work then messaged Shea to send Pace out to the street in costume when I got […]
Saturday Snap – Happy 54th Anniversary Mom and Dad!
The surprise birthday cake was a hit! (I’ve also been thinking a lot lately about the concept of “thoughtfulness” and how that interacts with kindness and empathy. Might be a topic for a future Wisdom Wednesday post…)
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – My Only “Real” Blue Jays Game? (April 2006)
I can’t remember for sure but think this Blue Jays game was the first and only Blue Jays game I’ve attended in my life? Or did I see an exhibition game in Regina once? Hmm, 1989 so that feels very possible. At any rate, this game was during a break in my Masters program. My […]
Music Monday – “You’ve got a diamond/You’ve got nine men/You’ve got a hat and a bat/And that’s not all”
“OK Blue Jays!“
Throwback Thursday – The State of Book Publishing in Alberta
Though this recent clip only popped up on my Facebook feed the other day, it did remind me of my time in Alberta (2001-2004) when I worked with the Writers Guild of Alberta where part of my work included helping jointly plan the annual Alberta Book Awards with the Book Publishers Association of Alberta. Haven’t […]
NHL Is Back!
Can the Oilers threepeat as Stanley Cup Final losers? God, I hope not. My heart can’t take it. Hope they miss the playoffs completely! Someone take the phone away from this rebel right now ?????#TimeToHunt pic.twitter.com/5etr23MlMA — David (@David954FLA) June 20, 2025 AI but still funny…
Wisdom Wednesday – If Someone Says Covid Is “Over”…
Definitely don’t listen to the politicians. And even many of the medical professionals misunderstand the ongoing risks. If you want to know the true status of Covid, listen to the insurance actuaries whose whole business model is predicated on predicting the actual financial costs of Covid to their companies (no different than insurance companies increasingly […]
I’m Not A Fan of Hypocrisy (So What Am I Hypocritical About?)
On National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, I’m thinking about some of the conflicted views I hold. For instance, my dad recently completed the sale of our family farm that was previously Indigenous land. I have already and will continue to benefit greatly from the sale of that land while Indigenous people continue to fight […]
Music Monday – “Take me to the place where you go/Where nobody knows/If it’s night or day/Please don’t put your life in the hands/Of a rock ‘n’ roll band/Who’ll throw it all away.”
“(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?” was released thirty years ago this week and after years of acrimony, Oasis is in the middle of a massive reunion tour with rumours that it’s going to be extended into 2026. One of the major highlights of my entire life was being in England in fall 1995 during the […]
