There’s a revolution coming, people. Not the “We’d like to sell you some mutual funds by incorporating music that used to be subersive into our otherwise non-threatening and highly establishment-based television ad” kind of revolution. Not the kind that requires a lot of marching with torches, either (which is good, […]
By junior on May 23, 2009, at 8:28 pm Popeye has a habit of standing at the top of the hill behind the house, just over the property line so that he’s technically all four feet firmly on the neighbour’s property. Next door to us, there is a fairly large farm, and the edges of the fields – as you might imagine – get […]
By junior on May 10, 2009, at 9:35 pm I’m not the only guy to suffer an injury around the ol’ homestead this weekend. The little fellow pictured below flew headlong into the window on the east side at the rear of our house. He seemed to be stunned (beautiful plumage, eh?) for a little bit, and Spouse and I stood nearby to make […]
By junior on May 3, 2009, at 10:58 pm Saturday was spent recuperating from the demands of another work week in my usual fashion: in the manner of a cultured and intelligent philosopher king. Specifically, I was camped out on the couch in front of the television soaking in about seven hours of NHL hockey.
Dedicating myself to torpor and sloth meant for the […]

We had a little bit of excitement around the ol’ homestead last evening. Well, more properly, “early this morning.”
Please understand that I can relate much of what follows, of necessity, not by way of a clearly-remembered first hand account, but rather by way of a careful post facto […]
By junior on January 24, 2009, at 6:24 pm I meant to post about this right after Christmas, but I kept forgetting to take the necessary photograph. Once I finally took the picture, the immediacy of the holiday season had passed and I found myself hemming and hawing about whether this was still of interest. Better late than never, says the old aphorism, so […]

What does it say about the litigiousness of our modern world when a Krazy Karpet – a flexible slab of low friction plastic designed to function as a high-speed/low-safety vehicle for suicidal northern children – comes with a warning label affixed to it?
Lawyers know how to bleed the fun out […]

Please note: This post has been modified since its initial inclusion on the site. In the place where there now appears a lovely artist’s rendering, there used to be a photograph. One of the subjects of that photograph complained – I’m not saying which […]
By junior on December 23, 2008, at 11:42 pm Did you know that Santa has some helper elves in Florida? And did you know that Santa’s sun-worshipping assistants are in charge of ensuring that all power yard equipment is properly prepared to celebrate the Yuletide festivities?
It’s true.
On Saturday the 13th, Spouse and I hosted the office Christmas party. What preceded the party, […]
By junior on December 22, 2008, at 11:11 pm South Dumfries Community Centre
Both Spouse and I had the day off today – the first of a few in a row over the holiday season, I am pleased to report – and we started things off with a bang by getting up early and heading over to the local community centre for a […]
