Here’s something that Gill sent in last week, and I meant to put up, but didn’t get to it. I fail. Most people who know me well will tell you that I like the blues genre of music, but what they may or may not say is that I especially enjoy the earliest kind. Not …

Holding On For Yipe?
Am I the only person who thinks Broken Bells – Holding On for Life sounds like yappy dogs? It’s always on the CBC, in fact, for some twisted reason, it was no. 1 in the top 20 once, and it seaps into my subconscious, but all I can think when I hear it is “bla …
Epic Olympic Dream
Gill sent us a post about an Olympic-related dream she had, which made me look for This ‘This Hour has 22 Minutes’ Olympic dream video. So now, here’s Gill’s dream, which made me chuckle. Remember a few months back when I told you about the 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 …
Talks Is Going Quiet
I’m still subscribed to the Talks users list, although I don’t know why. I’m terrible. I get on a list, and even though I don’t use it much anymore, I never seem to want to unsubscribe. I guess I’m lazy. For a while, I stayed on the Talks users list because I was watching how …
My Way Too Complicated Saturday
I don’t know why I’ve never put this song up, but the way yesterday went down makes it feel like a fitting soundtrack. Still I think he had a worse day than me, but I’ll continue with the story. I had to take Tansy to the vet because she’s been coughing and hacking and making …
Fleksy? No? Fleksy VO!
Man, Fleksy’s been struggling like mad lately. It all seemed to start when an expiry date got accidentally leaked out from their beta version onto the real live version. They had to release an update quickly so people could actually use the damn thing again… except… It was bug bug buggilicious! Holy crap! When it’s …
Mutt Muffs: For Dogs In Loud Places
Steve already wrote his summary of the Barenaked Ladies concert, and mine is pretty much the same. It was weird seeing them now, and knowing I saw them 7 years ago when they still included Steven Page, and yup, for the most part, they pulled it off…except for the part where your mind just begs …
Go Visit The Carnival
I wanted to put this up Wednesday, but didn’t get the chance. the carnival is up. It was a small one, but I’m sure there’s some other interesting reading in there. I might actually manage to get around to everybody because it’s not a honkin’ pile of posts to read, haha!
Help Our Buddy J Win An Award
Last night, mom called me to tell me that our buddy J is being nominated for a CTV Ottawa Amazing Person Award. I guess there’s a big gala on February 22, and whoever gets the most votes wins. I can’t figure out when the deadline is for voting. It seems like he’s being nominated for …
Conference Calls In Real Life
I got this from someone at work, and I thought it deserved a post. It’s a video about what it would be like if all the remote meeting crap happened during in-person meetings. Apparently the visuals make it even better. When John’s on mute, his mouth is going a mile a minute and he’s sitting …
