Just don’t take one of mine.

Which keeps dying.

I quickly get bored watching on TV, but I would love to see it live, in some big cavernous venue where you have to watch on a distant screen and all you really care about is who is getting the next round.

Yeah, as soon as I told my wife about this she figured I should have been a shoe-in.

I think Sour Grapes is still running on Netflix. In it, you get to see how Koch got ripped off and decide he wanted out of collecting. Heartbreaking. Or hilarious. I can’t remember which. Good movie, though.

If you were Canadian, you would have ranked curling high up the list. British, you would have listed darts or snooker. All of these probably have more drinking from the competitors than the fans.

Indeed. But I love me some karma, too.

Well, he didn’t sleep with my wife, so I’ll go a little easier on him.

Would you like a list? How long do I have?

Pospisil was as high as #25 in 2014. It’s an injury that’s pushed him down. Well, that, and he’s also a Canadian.

He’s right, but goddamn does it feel good any time he loses. And hey, I’ve always hated United, but didn’t realize until he left that a lot (not all) of my dislike for Chelski was because of him.

My favourite Utah joke, told to me by a Mormon neighbour:

Yeah, I lived in Logan, moved back to Canada at the end of September 2001. I do know Pat Bagley has called himself the state’s official opposition, and I know SLC often comes up with an interesting mayor.

I link to it every year on Facebook and certain friends and family then yell at me. Delightful.

When we lived there even the Mormons from out of state felt like they were visiting an alien world. Has it changed?

And now we need to squeeze in a Letterkenny reference.

I’m an atheist father with a non-committed-former-Catholic (atheist in everything but name, really) wife and two boys who are firm non-believers, 21 and 18, and they do have a few friends in the same boat. But we live in Canada, and not the Bible Belt portion.
