Let’s start the New Year off right – with a list of Five Books That Explain Why The World Is Fucked. (via Reddit) (Happy New Year?!?)

Friday Fun Link – What’d People Have Removed From Their Body Cavities This Year?

I love all kinds of “End of Year” lists!

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – “We Don’t Know Joy Without Experiencing Sadness” – Some Thoughts on a Tough Year

There’s no two ways about it – this has been one of the toughest years of our lives. Shea and I have dealt with a family member being diagnosed with, treated for, and living with all the fallout from a fairly serious form of cancer, numerous deaths of people who were connected to us – […]

RIP Dynamite Kid

The Dynamite Kid is the reason I’m a wrestling fan. I was fortunate to grow up in Western Canada during the heyday of Stampede Wrestling and I remember coming across this strange “ring-a-ding-dong dandy” spectacle on the TV when I was 7 or 8 years old. Many of the wrestlers had interesting names and personas […]

The 100 Greatest Innovations of 2018

The year-end “best of” lists have begun!!!

“The reality is…my real name is Joe and I’ve been living with leukemia for eleven years. And unfortunately, it’s back.”

I briefly thought of doing a list of “10 of My Fondest Memories of Pot” for this post. But since it feels weird to talk about something I did that was very common within my circle of friends but illegal (even if it’s now legal), I’ve decided to hold off on that list for now.  […]

Minor Milestones While Recovering From Breaking The Scaphoid Bone In My Wrist

It’s weird how much we take having two working hands for granted. Since breaking my wrist at the end of July, it’s been a series of minor milestones – from my first appointment with my family doctor a few days after the surgery where he changed my dressing on through things like being told I […]

Music Monday – “Cause here on earth it feels like everything good is missing since you left/And here on earth everything thing’s different, there’s an emptiness”

Death was a dark cloud haunting our summer in a variety of ways. In August, I lost a great aunt who lived in Weyburn at age 86. Earlier in the summer, I drove up to Warman for the funeral of one of my favourite cousins who was only in his 50’s when cancer took his life. He […]
