So, have I ever mentioned how awesome my friend Sarah is? She’s pledged to donate $0.01 for every goal the white team scores and $1 for every goal that *I* score! And then my friend Jody pledged to match her! That’s $2 to Cystic Fibrosis research for every goal I score in this game! I’d […] →Read more
Anyone out there happen to have a lot of extra medical supplies on their hands? Because we are in desperate need of them!

Today, my friend Erika defended her PhD! You may remember Erika from such adventurers as getting published in Science, her 29.758904th birthday, and several 12 Bars of Christmas. Well, now you can add her PhDizzle to that list! I didn’t get to attend the defence because The Man was making me work, but by all accounts her performance was brilliant! Not […] →Read more
I woke up to the news that Jack Layton passed away this morning at the age of 61. This is heart breaking. My heart goes out, first and foremost, to his wife, Olivia Chow, and their children. And it also goes out to our country because we’ve lost a great man today. A man who […] →Read more
