My son, then 16, was in Europe with his history class 3 years ago. They were in Paris, just hanging, when someone approached them, saying in a sing-song voice, “I love Par-ee!” Aidan, who had no idea at the time who Richard Simmons was, thought this was just some homeless guy approaching them, so (because he fully…

Another scientist was all over this.

I can believe that. Logging, oil, and mining communities are all pretty serious about their drug abuse.

The home of Rob Ford? Drug-addled? Pshaw!

I seem to recall Pierre’s license plate when he was PM was KGB 666, so one of your theories is plausible.

I was 13 or 14 and shook his dad’s hand. I was at band camp (yes, really, but without all the escapades) in a small town in Alberta and Pierre came and some buddies and I had free time so went to scope things out. For some reason he saw me and made a beeline for me, shook my hand and asked how I was doing and then…

If only Canadians were allowed to watch this. But we are delicate, and may not be able to handle the violence, real and implied, so it’s probably for the best.

I’m sure someone else has mentioned this in the morass of over 1300 replies, but as a Canadian, let me be the latest to say: YOU HAD FREE HEALTHCARE, YOU ASSHOLES! A kid is dead, but they are of course the victims here.

I’m looking forward to the movie, Trade Day, starring Kevin Costner.

Curious if they got the concession staff fitted for skates and pads after this.

Sometimes about ten minutes after leaving the house I suddenly wonder if I put on pants and have to stop and check. I’ll have to remember this tactic if things ever go south. Bonus? Free hugs when the police come.

But Jaromir Jagr didn’t.

He still has to hit it right, as opposed to so many others in the league these days. On the flip side, his setup of the third goal was nothing special, just the Arsenal defender giving him too much space because he was afraid of being embarrassed, allowing for the slowest stepovers and turn in the history of the game.

The show had me until a couple weeks ago, when Trixy complained to her mom about a boy at school picking on her and her mom reminding her that that meant the boy liked her. And Trixy saying, “You shot Lucifer. That must mean you REALLY like him.”

That’s Mary Shelley’s Oliver Kahn to you, buddy.

Coming soon, Paul LePage’s new favorite show: D-Money Love-Howser, MD.

Got to meet and have a chat with him at a party last fall. We could have been talking about the most minor inanities and I would have been aware of his towering intellect. Plus, he’s a helluva nice guy.

Why does it have to be a binary choice?

You need a dog, because when your kids get older (mine are 19 and 17), you will want one of those “children” to still give a shit about you and want to be around you and be willing to stand for your embarassing behavior. Just sayin’.
