Was digging through the depths of my computer’s hard drive and came across a pretty amazing find…the email receipt I got for my first ever order from Amazon back in summer 1997. A few things to note… not sure why but I used my work email address for the order when I’m pretty sure I […]
Okay, getting to one of the top o’ mind topics mentioned in my list yesterday – a new surprise album from Tyler Childers was released the other day. It features eight instrumental fiddle tunes then a single “regular” song with lyrics calling for more kindness and understanding among citizens including many who listen to Childers […]
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 […]
With the Canada-US border closed for the foreseeable future, I was trying to figure out the last time I went to the States. For awhile there in the early 2010’s, I’d say we ended up going about once or twice a year, either to Williston which is just over the border or Minot, which is […]

I did a list like this about a month ago and so I thought I’d do another one as I’m now a few days into my *fourth* month of quarantine to see what’s front of mind these days… 1. Public libraries *finally* have a date for permitted opening which will be Phase Four Stage Two […]
This is a British article but many of the findings are going to apply for countries around the world – from increased unemployment to reduced airline traffic to positive environmental impacts and more.
Everything’s changing due to Covid and Hollywood is no different. This is a movie that would’ve had a fairly traditional release – film festival then widely in theatres then to video-on-demand – but it is now being released today directly to various video streaming services where you can “rent” it for $20 USD (more expensive […]
