In 2018, John Allen Chau attempted to make contact with the people on North Sentinel Island.

Had tickets to the Rivalry Series game between the Canadian and American women’s national teams on Friday night and it was a great game and an even better experience.
I hadn’t been following it but when I looked it up, I was surprised to see the Americans had won the first three in a row and then the Canadians had won the next two.
So the Regina game would be a pretty pivotal battle because if the Canadians could win, Game Seven on Sunday would be to decide who wins the entire series (can’t help but think of echoes of the 72 Summit Series where the Russians went up in the first few games but the Canadians battled back to win the series!)
And it was a great game that ended with Canada getting the shutout (first of the series!) and winning 3-0 after being 0-0 most of the game setting up a game seven showdown on Sunday (there’s no other important sports games featuring women heavily on Sunday, right?) 😉






The longest reigning champion in modern WWE history. Two dynastic wrestling families. A former wrestler who became the world’s biggest movie star (and also now sits on the WWE Board in real life.). The company being sold to the UFC’s parent company after being under McMahon family control its entire existence. The major cloud hanging over Vince McMahon that some say these moves are meant to distract from.
So many real-world elements are mixing in this wrestling storyline about families, power and destiny and the entire thing is getting awesome response online as WWE heads to their 40th Anniversary Wrestlemania show!
RIP Toby Keith.
Lots of famous musicians have recorded Fred Eaglesmith songs but he just happens to have recorded my favourite which reminds me so much of my high school years working in a small town gas station:

Sasha bought me a Boba Tea with part of a gift card she got from Christmas at the end of a day of errands including visiting multiple art galleries like the highly cultured pair that we are! 😉
Fun fact: Boba Tea costs more at Mosaic Stadium than draft beer! (This is actually not a fun fact – it’s a sad fact!)
