  • Hallelujah, It’s Raining (Garbage) Men (and Women)

    In keeping with my recent, and what will hopefully be short-lived, trend of being the last to report on a long-broken piece of news, did you know that the Vancouver garbage strike ended this week, after almost 3 months? Which is unfortunate for my local Home Hardware, who had a sign proudly announcing: Not unlike […]

  • The saddest half marathoner ever

    Click here to see photos of the saddest looking half marathoner ever. Of course they didn’t get any photographs of me *before* I hurt my foot, when I was actually running. Instead, I get three photos of me limping along, looking all sorry for myself. In happier news, my foot now feels 100% better. It […]

  • Now I have two, two ouchies!

    So I come home from Third Tuesday last night and, realizing that a Bellini and a few nachos do not a dinner make1, I decide to cook some pizza. Now, since I lack a proper oven mitt2, I took the pizza out of the oven using a dish towel. A very thin dish towel. And […]

  • Canucks game recap

    My recap of last night’s Canucks game: Taylor Pyatt scored after a beautiful shot by Brad Isbister hit the post, bounced off of Taylor and went into the net. A Pyatt–Isbister double team – it’s like my dream come true! Then some other stuff happened, but we don’t need to talk about that. In other […]

  • I have an ouchy

    You know what is a really good way to take your mind off your injured foot? Slam the door on your finger. Don’t just close it, but really slam it good and hard. Seriously.

  • Blog Action Day

    Although my previous post was, at least in part, about the environment it was not actually intended as part of Blog Action Day. I actually didn’t know about Blog Action Day until Darren mentioned it in the comments on that post. In his post, Darren asked “what is your big eco-sin?” Like most of his […]

  • Al Gore Would Be Ashamed of Me

    I have a confession to make. I like driving cars. I want to be good to the environment and I don’t even own a car, but I really like driving! As you know, I joined the car co-op so that I can get to my hockey games out in Coquitlam. Well, for today’s hockey game, […]

  • Your Mom

    Overheard at a bus stop this morning, after several buses went by, none of which were the bus that these kids wanted: Kid #1: I think we missed our bus.Kid #2: *You* missed the bus.Kid #1: Your *mom* missed the bus. Your mom. There’s really no comeback to that.

  • Palmasutra

    Yes, it’s what you think it is. And it makes a great conversation starter, like when you are out for dinner, out clubbing on Saturday night or around the water cooler at work: “Hey, what did you do this weekend?” “Well, let me show you!” Exciting features include: full colour pictures of each position detailed […]
