Friday Fun Link – Regina Company Releases Virtual Reality Hockey Game

My wife is really excited to know I’m going to be wearing something over my eyes while swinging a hockey stick around in our living room – welcome to the future! 😉  

Friday Fun Link – “The Years Have Flown By” 50th Anniversary Charter Plane Ride

I alluded to this in Thursday’s post when I wrote “the years have flown by” about my mom and dad’s 50th Anniversary.  But I didn’t want to give away the big surprise I had planned for their anniversary gift knowing they read my blog. Honestly, it was a bit tough trying to come up with […]

One of Saskatchewan’s Highest Profile Anti-Vaxxers & Former PPC Candidate Rumoured To Be In Saskatoon Covid Ward

But I don’t think he qualifies for the Herman Cain Award…yet. I want ZERO Saskatchewan residents to die from covid. Pro-vax, anti-vax, young or old. Perfect health or numerous comorbidities, it's a gruesome way to suffer and die. My condolences to @MarkFriesen08 as I've verified someone with his name is at RUH. — Kyle Anderson […]

A Few Random Thoughts From 2021 @Sask_NDP Virtual Convention

Shea and I signed up to attend the virtual Sask NDP convention this weekend. We’ve been to a handful of conventions over the years since our first in 2009 – mostly in years when there was a leadership vote but also as delegates from our constituency on occasion.  (With that said, we’re not actively involved […]

Everything Wrong With The National Day for Truth & Reconciliation (A Partial & Incomplete List)

Hudson’s Bay Company selling orange shirts. Provincial governments such as Saskatchewan who don’t declare it a holiday (even as some cities within those provinces do). Catholic schools putting the Christian cross on their orange shirts. Businesses, organizations & people that don’t buy their orange shirts from Indigenous companies. Our federal government and its representatives continuing […]

Liveblogging the 2021 Canadian Federal Election #elxn44 #skpoli #canpoli #cndpoli

Okay, did this a couple elections ago for #Elxn42 but don’t think I did the last election.  But no big plans tonight other than a stiff rye & ginger ale so let’s see what we can see… – get home from work at 6pm to see that the split is roughly Libs – 21, Con […]

Five Highlights of Camping (August Version)

Between Shea and I, we camped a personal record of 62 nights this summer from May to September including two 2-week stretches, every weekend, every long weekend and probably a few extra nights we managed to squeeze in here and there. Here’s some highlights from the month we just wrapped up… 1. Cornhole Tournament My […]

A Few Highlights From CWE “Cruel Summer” Wrestling Show in Weyburn, SK

Took Pace and his cousin to a wrestling show in Weyburn last Saturday and it was a blast bringing back fond memories of my dad taking me to a handful of Stampede Wrestling shows in Regina and Fort Qu’Appelle and even a few shows in my own hometown of Indian Head. A few highlights… 1. […]

Back From Camping (and Five “Redneck” Moments)

Eternal optimist that I am, I keep saying that Covid has had some unintended benefits. One of those is because we couldn’t do a winter trip this year, it also meant we had more holidays to take in the summer – two weeks in July but also two weeks in August which we don’t usually […]

New Southeast Regional Library (@srlhq) “Little Library” at Nickle Lake Regional Park

Can’t wait to check out (er, pun intended?) this little library out this weekend (and on a related note, I was hanging out with the new Weyburn Library Branch Head last weekend too.  Yep, I’m that cool!) 🙂 The “Beaver Den” is the park’s arts & craft shack but I’m still bitter that my entry […]
