The internets gods have finally deemed me worthy enough to have my very own internets connection in my very own home. And what a great night for that to happen. Canada – and Canadian women in particular – kicked some ass at the Olympics tonight and I got to watch it all via the Internet […]
Saw this on the bus on the way to the hockey game yesterday:
While seeing so many people all clad in red walking to watch the Olympic torchbearer run by yesterday, I had an epiphany. I decided that I needed to do this: Happy Olympics!
So I bet you want to know all about the Olympics Opening Ceremony, the dress rehearsal for which I attended tonight, don’t you? But I can’t tell you. I mean, I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you. You know how it is with state secrets. There were parts that are so […]
I picked up my Olympic tickets today! Women’s hockey and men’s sledge hockey. Stoked! I had to go downtown to pick them up and downtown is really looking spiffy these days.

Kim and I arrived at the rink a bit earlier than normal today, so we decided to hit the concession stand, where we saw this: Doesn’t that seem insanely cheap for hot dogs? I mean, you’d get FOUR hot dogs for the same price as ONE can of pop. Being a herbivore, I’m not up […]
