Well, it is here. The Occupy VC Cast, the Occucast, whatever you want to call it, it’s here…and it’s about to occupy about 2 hours of your time. It would be awesome if you found it 99% funny. We divided it into 4 parts. It would have been only 3, but well, ya see, I’m …

Mike Tyson Quotes: The Song
Well…I think this is going to be in my head for a while, especially the chorus. I expect this to be the next big party singalong hit.
An Unwritten Rule Of Hockey
I doubt this comes up in many training camps, so here’s a good tip for all you kids out there. If you’re gonna play hockey, always, always! remember which team you’re on. It might just save you a punch in the face during a goal celebration one day. Here’s a description of what’s going on …

At longish last, audio is back! This piece should have gone up last week, but due to the small matter of it not being recorded until right now, that didn’t happen. On this here 18.5 minute adventure into something or other, we touch on such topics as the good and bad of the #LunchUpGuelph event …

Running Is Easy When I Take The Bus
I’m in no shape to be making fun of even the most average of marathon runners, but the most average of marathon runners aren’t Rob Sloan. I’m not even sure it’s proper to call Sloan a marathon runner in this case, since he rode a bus the last 9.6 kilometres and then ran out of …

Basebrawls And The Man In White
Let’s get today’s horrid Jays game out of our systems with a little bit of baseball history, shall we? Here’s a fun piece on basebrawls from Baseball Prospectus.
