I ended up with some facial hair in the aftermath of the Movember fundraising blitz that swept the nation. It then turned into Decembeard, then Januhairy, now Februhairy is over and I don’t have a pun for March. I was noticing I’d get at least a couple of comments a

Bill Maher’s first live stand-up special that was netcast via Yahoo! the other day… Not sure how long it will survive on YouTube, but if you missed the netcast, enjoy it while it’s available.

I’m hanging out at the Food Matters Manitoba: Growing Local Conference today. Please find me if you’re there – I’ll be sporting a large “350.org” button. And if you’re not, hope you’re enjoying a relaxing weekend with family and friends. Just for fun, here’s a video my daughter Emma shared

Gob-smacklingly stupid or hip advertising? I’m leaning towards the former. Via CBC: A Stockholm hospital that published an online ad looking to fill a summer position with a nurse who is “TV-series hot” says it was “written to catch people’s attention.” “We want people to be curious and have a

Supposedly “scientific” calculations from elitist, fancy-pants researchers at Lehigh University released today estimate it will take another 833,315 years to produce enough iron ore and steel at current production levels to build the apocalyptic space weapon proposed by President Gingrich. The research team furthermore projects total cost of the “Callista”

Rick Mercer lays a smack-down on Vic Toews and Bill C-30, his warrantless online spying legislation. Remember folks… you’re either with the philandering old pervert accused of shtupping his babysitter or you’re with the pedophiles and child pornographers. Sorry, but those are the only available choices on offer in Harperland.

Vocalizing to a small group of carbon-based supporters in Michigan earlier this week, “Mitt Romney” – the android launched many years ago by a venture capital fund to become the first completely non-human Republican nominee for President – pretended to express his/its deep affinities with and positive responses to various

Further to the saga of dumping Rogers, this morning I ordered internet service through TekSavvy. (I had already called for information on how to switch and called Rogers to cancel my service.) The customer service rep was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I wasn’t 100% certain of my disconnect date with

Fictional mayors are most impressive, right? I should mention that I’m considering (seriously) running for Regina’s City Council this October.

You may have heard about Climategate, the stolen emails that showed some scientists were so concerned about climate change that they were willing to distort their findings so they would be more sensational? Welcome to Denialgate, which reveals some of the secrets of one of the shadowy, billionaire funded, AstroTurf
