We booked rooms at the local Travelodge for New Year’s Eve intending to do some watersliding with Shea’s parents, her aunt and Pace’s cousin. That’s what we did although when we went down to the pool and the pool attendant informed us that New Year’s Eve is their busiest day of the year in the […]
I’m not sure whether to be proud or sad that I caught the vast majority of the references in this video… (If you prefer text links, this one has many of the same memes in the video. And here’s a summary of the year from a Canadian perspective.)

There’s a whole sub-genre on YouTube of creative, funny, artistic wedding grand entrance & first dance videos.

This little clip, a song I’m sure I’ve posted before but can’t find because I cleverly post song lyrics instead of song titles for those […]
The Tesla company which produces electric cars and which Mitt Romney infamously labelled a “loser” after Barack Obama’s government invested in it, recently won MotorTrend’s “Car of the Year” award by unanimous vote which was also the first win by an electric car in the 64-year history of the award. (Now who’s laughing, Mitt?) Now I […]
A pretty heart-warming video, even if I’ve been trained to be cynical enough about videos like this that at the end I thought it was probably a viral video for Coke! (Turns out it’s a charitable foundation called Love Everybody). (via LyinRPL)
