WWE Makes History At Wrestlemania 35

Tonight’s Wrestlemania 35 was the first to have a main event featuring women wrestlers – Ronda Rousey who was a former star in UFC, Charlotte Flair who is the daughter of one of the greatest wrestlers of all-time and an accomplished athlete in her own right, and Becky Lynch who is the ultimate underdog but […]

Friday Fun Link – Quarter Horse Cam

Picked up a book on Mexican drug cartels and ended up learning a lot about American quarter horses! 🙂  

A Viral Proposal Video

Did I ever post this?  It’s a classic… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYh9DCN8ads  

Music Monday – “There’s the progress we have found (when the rain)/A way to talk around the problem (when the children reign)/Building towered foresight (keep your conscience in the dark)/Isn’t anything at all (melt the statues in the park)/Buy the sky and sell the sky and bleed the sky and tell the sky”

This song is usually interpreted as being about acid rain but on the day Saskatchewan (and three other provinces) has a federal carbon tax enacted, I thought it was appropriate… “Fall On Me” – R.E.M.

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Did I Get Here? – #6 – Comedy

  After another week away from this series (honestly, I forgot I was doing this “How I Became Me” series last week after working a 1-9pm shift and, as I often do, whipping off a zero-effort post to keep my daily post streak alive instead of doing something a bit more in-depth and time-consuming.)

Music Monday – “So needless to say/I’m odds and ends/I’ll be stumbling away/Slowly learning that life is OK/Say after me/It’s no better to be safe than sorry

I don’t normally add a lot of my own thoughts to Music Monday posts but wow, hearing this song that I loved as a kid (yes, the innovative video was a big part of that!) slowed down and done acoustically really makes it heartbreaking and adds a feeling of nostalgia (in multiple ways) that the […]

Friday Fun Link – Watching Something On The Internet That I Loved A Long Time Before The Internet

 

The Homophobic Version of “Laurel” or “Yanny”?

There was lots of controversy on Twitter (but when isn’t there?) a couple days ago when Leafs defenseman, Morgan Rielly, was accused of yelling a homophobic slur on the ice. There were conflicting opinions with some people thinking the on-ice mics caught him yelling “Fucking faggot” (which wouldn’t be the first time this has happened […]

Music Monday – “Another summer wasted in the Battlefords/On a banana seat bike with a hockey card in the spokes”

“Battlefords” – Hawksley Workman
