You’d think it was Christmas.
Between the baking, shopping, and just generally lazing around that’s been done today, and the fact in just under 2.5 hours there will be hockey on at least one TV set, you’d certainly get that impression. But, no, this is just our premature thanksgiving dinner, done tonight rather than Monday … Read the rest

Oh my.
When they say a political campaign should catch the attention of the voters, I’m… quite sure they didn’t think someone would actually take it at skin value. But, I was told once the spanish do have a tendency to take things very… uh, literally. Hey, the public and even the … Read the rest

Do the Leafs need another center?
Someone obviously thinks we do. It’s being circulated that they’ve come to some kind of an agreement with Boyd Devereaux, who used to play for the Coyotes and before that the Red Wings. Well, I guess we’ll find out eventually if we need yet another body plugging the hole at … Read the rest

Could mister Harper be a Leafs fan?
He won’t say. But, there be speculation afoot, and his being all smiles when they scored last night is certainly fueling that fire. Can’t say it’d surprise me, seeing as he *is* Toronto born, but… the irony of it is just too amusing. I wonder if this will spark the … Read the rest

I feel all accomplished and such.
After spending nearly an hour in wallmart when I only had to go there for, like, 1 or 2 things but my mother decided she’d buy something from every sale coming, which I suppose shouldn’t surprise me but anyway, we finally got into the music store so the guitar that’s … Read the rest

Go shopping for a guitar and end up with clothes. Go figure.
The original plan was to drop my brother off at work, then get a bit of household shopping out of the way, before we went to at least price out a decent-sounding guitar so I can actually give my uncle’s back to him. Well, we managed to get 2 of … Read the rest

I don’t remember school being such a bitch…
And even then, I really have no idea how bad it’d have to be for someone to show up to school with a gun and blow the hell out of teachers, other students… whichever. And yet, it happened in Colorado, it happened in Montreal, and it happened in Whisconsin. A … Read the rest

The longest attempt to set up an interview, *ever*…
… May very well come to fruition in about 2 weeks. That’s when the interview that’s been in the works for at least 2 months has finally, tentatively, been scheduled for. Tentatively meaning, subject to change depending on when the hell I can hitch a ride to Ottawa. Damn, with … Read the rest
