I took Sasha out trick or treating for a couple hours tonight (Pace was off with friends) and it was noticeably quieter on the streets compared to other years (also quieter at our house – we’re in a new house but in the same area as our old house. Our neighbour said they usually get […]
Jack White absolutely kicked ass on SNL this weekend as a last-minute, emergency fill-in guest. Ironically, since he was covering for a country singer who the show cancelled for blatantly disregarding Covid restrictions, White played a mash-up of a few different songs including an old blues tune written about the pandemic of 1918… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhN4M4aS50U If […]
This’ll show Covid! (Fun challenge – pretend you know nothing about this video and watch with the sound off then see if this guy seems at all healthy or well-balanced.)
Free Agency Day in the NHL is normally on July 1 bur with all the Covid weirdness, the date got pushed back to today. The Flames signed Jacob Markstrom, one of the highest rated goalies available which is awesome since my team hasn’t had a true #1 goalie since Miikka Kiprusoff. This is as good […]

[Inspired by every Facebook thread about masks I’ve ever seen and the beautiful rants of Brent Terhune…] “Listen up sheeple! Wal-Mart thinks they can make me wear pants in their store just because they have a legal right to set policies for their own store and just because the government says pants are necessary to […]
I can’t remember the last time Shea and I took recycling to Sarcan but I’m pretty sure it was before Covid and possibly not since around *last* Christmas since we only take cans every few months once they build up. Of course with Sarcan having been shut down for a few months plus our somewhat […]
