Free Public Library Cards at Edmonton Public Library Will Continue

The subject of user fees in Alberta public libraries is of great interest to me. That’s why I was very excited when a colleague recently informed me that a pilot project to remove user fees at Edmonton Public Library during the library’s centennial year was being made permanent! The number of people with library cards […]

Music Monday – “C’mon, C’mon”

Here’s a clip of the band we went to see last Friday night. The name of the song isn’t given and I feel like my 17 year old self listening to “Smells Like Teen Spirit” trying to make out the lyrics so you only get the most basic of lyric excerpts as the title of […]

Friday Fun Link – Bubble Football (Soccer)

It’d be pretty easy to leave some snarky atheist cartoon since it’s Good Friday. But instead, I’ll just leave this here… (Man, do I want to try this sport!)

Yes, it’s exactly one year ago today that I got my Most Liked post ever on Facebook!  (I posted a picture of Sasha immediately after she was born in the delivery room.  Okay, not *immediately* after she was born!) When […]

Music Monday – “Every four way stop that I approached/Hey, I was on the right/When I drove past your house again/Hey, like I always do/I think about the one thing in my life that didn’t come true”

An entire hour and a half long Fred Eaglesmith concert, taped in Holland? Man, I love the Internet for so many reasons…it eliminates time, distance and provides access to stuff you’d never see otherwise. I can’t imagine what it’ll be like in 5-10 years when literally everything that’s ever been broadcast, everything we can see […]

Continuing with the Wrestlemania XXX theme I started yesterday, here’s a really cool video package about the rise of the underdog, Daniel Bryan, from wrestling in high school gyms and armouries to winning the WWE World Title at the 30th Anniversary Wrestlemania card in front of 80,000 screaming fans… “Monster” – Imagine Dragons

Saturday Snap – Sasha Eating Pudding

As I mentioned on Facebook, Sasha and I have a lot in common – we don’t wear shirts at the dinner table, we’re pretty messy eaters, and we occasionally gnaw on the bottom of containers to try to get at the food! 😉
