Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Damn you, Yukon government. I had to pick up Vitamin D today, and I couldn’t do it with a straight face, and it’s all your fault. Yup, your fault. I think I managed to suppress the giggles long enough for the person helping me find it to not wonder what was so funny about Vitamin …

When I first read about pedestrian crossovers being installed at all roundabouts in town, I got kind of excited. You already know how I feel about roundabouts, so I thought these would make it easier. But I think I need more information. First, how will they be marked? Will it be done consistantly? Second, if …

Jen sent this to me via Facebook. I was in another town in a hotel, and I laughed, and I laughed, and I laughed. I didn’t stop laughing, because it’s so true for us here in KW with this LRT construction. I tell myself that it’ll be awesome when it’s done…but…until then, sing it, my …

I got some pretty sad news yesterday. I never have met this man, but I know he’s been involved in the GDB family for years. I have written about the puppy truck before, when it had its accident and when they built a new one. Basically the puppy truck drives around dropping off puppies to …

This is good news. Let’s hope it keeps spreading. I always feel a little guilty taking Uber knowing that there’s no way for someone in a wheelchair to take it. I know it could be tricky to pull off with Uber’s model but I always hoped there’d be a way. Now, Uber WAV is a …
Ok, it’s official. My experience with the captain has truly warped my brain. I saw this satirical piece designed to make fun of the ridiculous products people will buy, and a small part of me went “Hmmm! I could have used that!” Let’s just say that at the beginning of my saga, I was pretty …
Someone shared this sweet post about someone’s guide dog whose career ended way too soon, and it gave me a little scare. LaniJo, that crazy dog, sounds a lot like the Shmans, who is snoring here beside me. I would have to ask Steve, does she sound a little crazier than Shmans, even? But the …
