I honestly don’t know what else I can write about the big Paul McCartney concert tonight in Regina. Yes, it’s only one former Beatle but for me, this is not just a Paul McCartney show (which would be fine in and of itself) but this is also the closest I’ll ever get to a Beatles […]
Going to see Paul McCartney in Winnipeg on Monday or Regina on Wednesday night? Here are some useful resources (with a Regina bias as that’s where I’m located)… Local News & Info TicketMaster’s Paul McCartney – Regina FAQ (PDF) City of Regina Traffic & Construction Notices regarding the concert “McCartney’s First Regina Concert Sure To Be Memorable” […]
Continuing my birthday week festivities, thought it might be nice to review my posts on July 18 since this blog started… 2012 – Average Canadian Male Life Expectancy = 78 (Happy 39th Birthday To Me!) 2011 – A Montage Video of Various “Paranoid Android” Covers on YouTube – obviously my birthday wasn’t front and centre that […]
Spent the weekend at Shea’s parents’ seasonal camp site at Nickle Lake. Had a bit of an adventure as there were tornado warnings on Saturday afternoon. (When Pace was a baby and we found ourselves in similar circumstances, we headed for town. I often joke about “Second Baby Syndrome” and Sasha suffered it here as […]
I posted this song when I attended a Hammond family reunion a few years back so it’s only fair to post it again (live version this time) as a very enjoyable Peet family reunion comes to a close… “Family Reunion” – Corb Lund
So after yesterday’s post, I got a comment from a friend that he was related to the Peets who are from the same area as my mom’s family (Mom’s maiden name is Peet). After a few messages back and forth, we determined that the connection was that my mom’s cousin was married to his stepfather’s […]
I would’ve sworn I posted this video around Pace’s first day of kindergarten but apparently, I only put it on Facebook. So, instead of a rare re-post of a Music Monday song which I thought it would be, this video gets to be posted for the first time here to celebrate Pace’s kindergarten graduation today. […]
Regina’s main summer fair is the Queen City Ex in August but there’s a smaller fair that sets up earlier in the summer each year in the parking lot of a random local mall. The wristbands for unlimited rides costs the same as the “big” fair but there’s no gate admission charge and instead of […]
So I was flitting around YouTube this weekend and came across this video of a member statement made by Carrot River MLA, Fred Bradshaw in the Saskatchewan Legislature and which was uploaded a couple months ago on April 17, 2013. Although they don’t specify who the “prominent NDP blogger” in question is (and out of […]
Went to TEDxRegina yesterday and honestly, my thoughts on the afternoon, with a couple exceptions, are pretty much the same as my thoughts on the inaugural one in 2012. Perhaps because I usually cherry-pick the best TEDTalks when watching online, both years I’ve gone in expecting all TEDx talks will be stellar too. But honestly, […]
