Why yes, I always dress like this at the office. Doesn’t everyone? We beat the Chicago Blackhawks in 7 games We beat the Nashville Predators in 6 games. And last night we beat the San Jose Sharks in 5 games. Clearly, we are going to take the Stanley Cup in 4 games. It’s simple math, […]
Darren Facebooked earlier today about his disappointment at seeing Canucks-branded bottled water in stores recently – you know, given that bottled water is a “lousy, wasteful product,” (or, as I like to say – bottled water is bullshit).

The ZRS does the critical work of raising awareness and preparedness for the coming zombie apocalypse. In their words: The Zombie Research Society (ZRS) is dedicated to raising the level of zombie scholarship in […]
I’m a self admitted coffee snob and a chocolate snob. Oh yes, and a grammar snob as well ((Yes, I do know that is an incomplete sentence. And, yes, I did do that on purpose)). And with all that snobbery in my life, I don’t feel that I can also afford to be a wine […]
It all started with a missing chin strap. A few weeks ago, I went racing into the pro shop at Burnaby 8 Rinks, in desperate need a chin strap for my helmet – my team was playing short without me and every second that went by meant I was missing ice time! The guys in […]
Raul brought this to my attention and asked if I could share it with you, my lovely readers: Guests of Fashion’s Night OUT! will be treated to a one-off fashion show put on by The Hudson Bay Company’s celebrated and critically successful White Space in Yaletown’s V Lounge on March 8, 2011 along with a […]
