Friday Fun Link – So…What’d You Do Today?

Nothing much, just bought a house! 😉 (Er, obviously this is a story months and really, years, in the making but I’m sure I’ll get to the full story soon.  For now, I’m heading to bed after a *very* long day!)

Secular Sunday – I’d Prefer A Sprinkle of Success in the Red Zone

As an atheist, I always chuckle at athletes who inject their religion into the game or somehow seem to believe that god is helping them win or have success or whatever. I have no idea how much the Riders’ new quarterback, Cody Fajardo, thinks god’s helping him have success but given his “sprinkle of Jesus” […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – #officialRPL Annual Report 1996 #yqr

One of the ladies in my branches’ “Celebrate Seniors!” program (she’s a model on page 2!) showed me an RPL annual report she recently rediscovered. Amazing stuff…

NHL #HeritageClassic Highlights

Wrong team won but with a few days to think about it, probably worth it to see a 3-on-3 overtime outdoors (pond hockey!) and would’ve been even better if it had gone to shootout too!  

2019 Edition of “First Snow of the Year” – Hawksley Workman

It created a pretty magical “snow globe” effect at the Heritage Classic last night, continued to fall through the night and it’s always a bit of a judgement call but it feels like it’s time to do my annual post of this song as it feels like the snow is here to stay again for […]

Saturday Snap – Ready To Head Out to the Heritage Classic!

Pretty cool experience to go to the Flames Heritage Classic game in Regina with my Calgary cousins and our dads.

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Go Flames Go (April 2004 Stanley Cup Run)

I’m super excited for the Heritage Classic outdoor NHL game (first regular season NHL game in a non-NHL city ever!) on Saturday night at Mosaic Stadium. I’ve always been a Flames fan since I have a lot of family in Calgary but they were my second favourite team, at least until we moved to Calgary […]

The Fundamental Choice This Election #elxn43 #canpoli

I’m not sure if it was something I learned in a political science class or read in a book or when exactly I figured it out. But I don’t think it’s especially profound to realise that, at its core, the biggest difference between people on the left and people on the right is that people […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Regina Housing Prices Over Time

Shea and I are *very* lucky that we decided to keep the house we bought when we moved back to Regina in 2004 rather than sell it and buy something else when I went to library school in 2006 and came back in 2007, just as the Regina real estate market was booming. There have […]

Definition of a Corporate Farm?

  Interesting question on r/saskatchewan today – what’s the difference between a “family farm” and a “corporate farm” with a wide range of opinions being shared. For me, the main indicator of a “family farm” is any farm that has an owner who is a single individual (often including extended family members – a spouse, […]
