The Cyberspace Equivalent of Building Blocks?

This physics based Flash game is probably the single most fun thing I've found on the Internet in a long time.  Very addictive!  (via MetaFilter which has some ideas on what you should build – catapult anyone? – and I noticed it was also posted on Reddit)

Merry Christmas Everyone! (A Message From Santa Claus)

I told the story in a recent post about how the person that clued me in about Santa Claus was also the same person that first made me doubt the existence of God. So I thought the picture below was appropriate for today, even though I know that posting this picture today is sort of […]

Is "Hit The Rhubarb" a Saskatchewan-Only Expression?

An Alberta cousin sent me this joke which seems appropriate after I hit the ditch last weekend for the first time in fifteen years. A Winter Statistic98% of Canadians say “Oh Shit!” before going in the ditch on a slippery road.  The other 2% are from Saskatchewan and they say “Hold My Beer and Watch […]

Is This Paper Important, Daddy?

“No, it's just my CLA membership renewal, son.”  (Just kidding – it's actually the address insert from the latest Feliciter.  And hey, at least I didn't give him the shrink wrap to play with!)

Happy Six Month Birthday Pace!

You hear it from everybody but there's still no way to prepare for how quickly the time flies.  Six months already.  Wow.  (Full disclosure – the picture on the right is from his THREE month birthday.  I don't have a current version of this shot but will get one next weekend.)    Latest milestone – […]

Ready For The Big Game

Pace needs to work on his game face but he's young – it'll come.  (And no, that's not spilled beer on my leg.  And yes, it's baby drool.) On a related note, we went to see Brent Butt at Casino Regina for my staff Christmas party Friday night.  I have a completely unprovable theory that […]

Five Controversial Things We Do In Raising Our Baby

Pace has a new cousin!  Almost six months to the day after he was born, Pace's cousin, Dennon Robert Thompson arrived in very similar circumstances – breech position requiring an unplanned c-section.  It was a weird sense of deja vu for me all day – finding my way to the labour and delivery unit, sitting […]

First Shiner
