Saturday Snap – Cherry Blossoms in Baby’s Room

Baby’s room is coming together…

Saturday Snap – Princess Kate Is On Her Way!

Had a busy day as Shea’s and my parents were in to spend a day doing various things to help us get ready for the arrival of “Princess Kate” (as our baby girl has been christened by Grandpa Dennis, the only one to successfully guess “girl” during our Baby Reveal on Christmas Eve.) Grandma Joan […]

Favourite Philosopher TL;DR

Since at least 2003, TL;DR which means “Too Long; Didn’t Read” has been used as a reply to a much longer post on a message board or other places to indicate that the replying user didn’t bother to read the comment because it was too long (which is probably pretty self-evident.)

I’m a huge Hawksley Workman fan but ended up not going to see him close out the Regina Folk Fest last night.  Instead, we accepted an invite to go out to Indian Head for supper and a visit with my folks. Then, coming back in later in the evening, right around the time Hawksley was […]

Newfoundland Trip – Whale Watching at Bonavista

Friday Fun Link – Tout Hits the Big Time

Back in late April (two months ago in normal human time but eons in Internet time), I wrote about Tout, a new web video service that’s like a combo of Twitter and YouTube. Well, because, I don’t get many opportunities to toot (tout) my own horn for being not only on the ball but ahead […]
