Music Monday – “Every four way stop that I approached/Hey, I was on the right/When I drove past your house again/Hey, like I always do/I think about the one thing in my life that didn’t come true”
An entire hour and a half long Fred Eaglesmith concert, taped in Holland? Man, I love the Internet for so many reasons…it eliminates time, distance and provides access to stuff you’d never see otherwise. I can’t imagine what it’ll be like in 5-10 years when literally everything that’s ever been broadcast, everything we can see […]
Random Thoughts on #WrestlemaniaXXX Tonight #spoilers

How Pro Wrestling Prepared Me For The 21st Century
As I may have mentioned on this blog before, I grew up watching professional wrestling.

Ellen Degeneres arranged a “spontaneous” selfie with some heavy hitters at the recent Oscar telecast. After tweeting it, it quickly crashed Twitter, became the most re-tweeted photo of all-time eclipsing Obama’s “Four More Years” tweet many times over, and becoming ripe for parody. But it also quickly led to a question about who owned the copyright to […]

Inside Mark McMorris’ Technique
Saskatchewan’s Mark McMorris brought home Canada’s first Olympic medal, a bronze in the slope style competition. This is pretty amazing considering he broke a rib only a couple weeks ago at the Winter X Games (not to mention that he’s a kid from the flat Canadian prairie of course!) 😉 McMorris grew up in Regina. The closest […]

Lots has been made about Russia’s anti-gay laws and the statement by the mayor of Sochi that their community of 400,000 people has no gay people which have drawn protests from everyone from the Head of the UN to Google to the Canadian […]
