Back from the dead- now with a creative new title! Sunday, April 26, 2009. Adventures on the Paths. Now that it's nice out again, I'v. E decided that I should be riding my bike. It's good exercise, and this city certainly has enough bike paths to make the trip rewarding. Why isn't this stuff digitized yet? Huh, I wonder why they changed the street lights. They look weird. Wait. I'm in Gatineau! How'd I get in Quebec? It was a wooden bridge. My bike doesn't have shocks. The ride made my thighs hurt. Also,...

Back from the dead- now with a creative new title! Tuesday, May 19, 2009. Everyone who counts is talking about the Phoenix Coyotes saga. People on Facebook are joining the FIRE GARY BETTMAN! Group TSN's web site has updates and commentary on the legal proceedings. Corporate sponsors are lining up to show their support for a seventh Canadian team. It's not going to happen. People around here love the idea of another team in Canada. I don't know if everyone knows exactly why. When they moved. The Coyot...

Back from the dead- now with a creative new title! Friday, July 15, 2011. Self-Made Man: A Review. I recently finished reading the book Self-Made Man by Norah Vincent. The book had an intriguing concept: the author decided to try and pass as a man for a year and a half. I love these sorts of social experiments, so I had to read it.

Back from the dead- now with a creative new title! Friday, August 15, 2008. Well this is great. Democrats who appear on The Colbert Report seem to have more success fundraising within the month after their appearance than candidates who don't. Also, Republicans get nothing from being on the show. Thursday, August 07, 2008. Let Me Give You A PETA My Mind. PETA pulls outrageous stuff all the time, like having celebrities be naked in other ads or doing that whole fake blood thing. They're over-the-top a...

Back from the dead- now with a creative new title! Thursday, July 17, 2008. We Don't Like Thinking About Things. I was reading an article about declining crime rates in Canada. Which was explaining that the national crime rate has fallen for the third consecutive year, when a few lines caught my eyes:. Stephen Colbert's persona would be proud. "Don't tell me to think. I'm already thinking with my gut." Emotion. Is a better barometer for crime in Canada than statistics? This story does raise an interestin...

Back from the dead- now with a creative new title! Saturday, May 24, 2008. I Have A Problem. On Sunday I went grocery shopping. While shopping, I found out that both Häagen-Dazs and Ben and Jerry's ice cream were 3/$10. I bought six, the maximum allowed, and promptly consumed them in three days. Then, on Wednesday, I needed to buy a few more things, and bought two 2L tubs of President's Choice ice cream. It is now Saturday, and they are gone. I have a problem. 1) It's just ice cream. This must truly be t...

Back from the dead- now with a creative new title! Wednesday, August 31, 2011. Warning: this post deals with subject material that is sensitive for some people. If discussion of sexual abuse is likely to trigger highly negative reactions for you, don't read further. A blogger that I really like posted this picture (his upload is here. And I hope he doesn't mind that I linked it) and posted it without much comment to his blog. That was heavy. My first thought on reading this? So what do we know? Immediate...

Back from the dead- now with a creative new title! Sunday, June 26, 2011. Dragon Age 2: A Review. Having thoroughly enjoyed the first Dragon Age game, and having great faith in Bioware after years of solid entertainment at their hands, I knew I'd be picking up Dragon Age 2 unless the early reviews were miserable.

Back from the dead- now with a creative new title! Tuesday, July 19, 2011. How to Win at Dodgeball. Almost a year ago I signed up for dodgeball with a friend on a whim. I figured it'd be fun but I had no idea how much fun it would end up being. Naturally I wasn't amazing, but after playing for a while, naturally I became amazing. 1) Hoard the balls. Technically, the 10 second count only starts when someone picks up a ball, so just don't pick them up! 3) Recover balls thrown by the other team. If they...
