My kid introduced me to Rick and Morty, which is fucking superb (we’ve been watching them on YouTube). And hey, I’m in an NFL pool and still looking to avoid the league. Maybe I need professional help.

Most of my fellow Canadians aren’t losing their heads so much over the shite call as we are over the awful game Canada played. Throwing bricks and defending that was non-existent when it was most required? Awful.

As it is with so many things, and of course the reasons are varied as well.

I am, and thank you. Delighted to hear that.

I get to reply to myself: An entry I just typed in includes the line, “Backed another net ready to put in under the ice if the Caribou don’t show up.” Which is telling. Polar bears wouldn’t necessarily have that option.

Seeing how often my own first name is misspelled, I was all set to be that person, but I applaud you being first.

So part of the problem with this sort of thinking is it neglects to consider the impact climate change and other human-caused changes will have on the environment for the caribou and snow geese and berries. For almost two years I’ve been tweeting my grandfather’s diaries (@TrapperBud) from his time in the north as a…

If John Jay’s school mascot is not a bear (or lion) cub named Jingelheimer Schmidt I’m going to be very disappointed.

Peak Midge Ure was probably Ultravox. Anyone who says “Do They Know It’s Christmas?” will be stung on the testicles by wasps. And Bob Geldof.

First thing I thought of was the basement Full-O-Guns in Tremors.

I didn’t know anything about this show and now I am watching and OMIGOD I AM HOOKED! I mean, we’re hearing and seeing real science but there is an exuberance and even a hint of naivete that is just lovely. Plus, when that guy was yelling at us from behind his mask underwater while the sea lions were swimming around…

“Holy crap, those are the boots that are next to useless! Club Brugge excepted.”

People who say it’s no complex are right, until it becomes complex. It’s not the top three teams that are promoted, but rather some teams have to go through a playoff structure to get the last spot. And Champions League can look complex, since it’s not really the top 4 teams from England, but rather 3, with the 4th…

Well, let’s be clear: I was just a passenger, responsible for one of the chapters and for helping recruit one or two other authors. James MacDonald did all the heavy lifting.

Nah, when we announced that PA had took the bait, they sent a letter saying, essentially, that they’d changed their minds. There was never an expectation that PA would get one thin dime from us.

Well, probably not so bizarre, but at my Grandpa’s funeral I got to tell my cousins the story of how my dad punched Grandpa in the dick. Twice. The second time out of apology, trying to show him what he meant to punch instead. The resulting hilarity did look a little out of place at the funeral, and Dad was sure to…

The book is published by Lulu.com, not a vanity press but rather a POD self-publishing house. The difference being they don’t bag the author with all the extra fees and add-ons.

This movie made me so goddamned angry. But then I’ll hear about that one guy who liked the sequel (NOT Harry Knowles) and I’ll be like, “Yeah, what the hell.” And then I’ll need lots of alcohol.

Oh my god, this was marvelous. Largely because of its obscurity, I’ll wager.
