Apparently I wasn’t the only one who got inspired by Dwain Lingenfelter talking about his father at the recent NDP convention. The NDP candidate in my area, Jaime Garcia, writes about the inspiration his own father has been to him. Since the federal election’s been called, there have been lots of people grumbling that it’s a […]

Here’s a few more photos from our trip, set to one of Cuba’s most popular songs…
Friday Fun Link – Sex on a First Date to Long Term Prospects, A Dating Site Knows All?

Saturday Snap – Kid’s Eye View of Regina Airport
Kid’s Eye View of Regina Airport, originally uploaded by headtale. Pace loves taking photos so I occasionally hand him the iPhone and let him at it. Always interesting to see what he decides to take pictures of and the perspective he brings. We took my parents to the airport on Friday afternoon so this is […]
Saturday Snap – The Nerd Is Strong With This One

My mom was cleaning out some papers at home and found the original spec sheet/packing slip for the first computer our family ever bought in 1988 which is when I was in grade nine.

Usually I’d save a video like this for Music Monday. But it’s too cute (and going viral too fast!) to save it for next week. Enjoy!

2010 “End of Year Questions” Meme: BC Bound, Getting Kinected, Hello SILS!
I’ve done this every year since I started this blog and once again, here’s a quick summary of my 2010 in meme form: 1. What did you do this year that you’d never done before? Since my grandparents lived in BC for most of my life (they left Saskatchewan the year I was born so how’s that […]
The Evolution of an Atheist
With Christmas falling on a Saturday this year, I’m thinking of doing a full week-long series of posts about Atheism, culminating with my annual snarky tongue-in-cheek humourous atheism-themed post on Christmas Day! 😉 It’s pretty obvious if you read this blog (or just look at some of the categories and keywords I use) that I’m an […]
