Continuing my birthday week festivities, thought it might be nice to review my posts on July 18 since this blog started… 2012 – Average Canadian Male Life Expectancy = 78 (Happy 39th Birthday To Me!) 2011 – A Montage Video of Various “Paranoid Android” Covers on YouTube – obviously my birthday wasn’t front and centre that […]
Spent the weekend at Shea’s parents’ seasonal camp site at Nickle Lake. Had a bit of an adventure as there were tornado warnings on Saturday afternoon. (When Pace was a baby and we found ourselves in similar circumstances, we headed for town. I often joke about “Second Baby Syndrome” and Sasha suffered it here as […]
