sanctity of life

As you may (or may not) have heard, the little man in the big house down South vetoed a stem cell research bill that would have permitted federal funding for research using discarded embryos. The primary reason given was that every life was sacred, and that it was the personal responsibility of the president to […]

release

Went out with Mark today and had a horrible round. On the third hole, I missed my line by about 80 degrees to the right. That’s not a typo. It wasn’t quite a right angle, but I did manage to make the longest hole on the course longer, and the rest of the round followed […]

a little update

I’m on vacation this week, and I haven’t done a whole lot with the computer other than play a little WoW. So, a quick update on what’s gone on in the last week or so. Shot even par at Jacques Cartier while playing with Mark on the weekend. Got my camera back from Canon. It […]

hah! i’m unique!

4056 Although in this case I’m really not sure if that’s a good thing. Yay bugs tearing other bugs apart on the bedroom floor! There’s actually pieces of moth everywhere. Goddamn ants. The original is here.

it’s working

A few weeks ago I mentioned that I had purchased a second pair of orthotics and some new shoes to go with them. I’m happy to report that things are going pretty damn well. My first pair of Nimbus VIII’s had to be returned after a couple weeks because of a bad seam in the […]

that’s exactly it

Man, Grumpy Chris managed to capture exactly how I’ve been feeling lately. I’ve been struggling to figure it out for myself… well… admit it to myself, and he just comes right out and says it. You’ve got to decide if “coulda been” will be enough to wrap yourself up in when you’re 40 years old […]

oh. my. god.

This is, quite possibly, the vilest recipe I have had the misfortune to come across. Ingredients include: 1 large bag of pork rinds 1 brick of Velveeta Cheese 1/4 cup sour cream 6 slices of crispy bacon 1 small onion 1/4 cup maple syrup 2 jalapeno peppers 1/2 bag of chocolate chips (butterscotch chips may […]

aftermath

On Wednesday nights, I go running with a few friends. The routine is usually meet at someone’s house at 1900, run for 45 minutes or so, then go to the pub for a meal, a drink or two, and some great conversation. In the summertime it changes a little. Instead of going to the pub […]

moggy memes

Moggy responds to a lot of memes. Some of them are entertaining, some of them are not (to me; she’s a little more easily amused, I guess – and I say that in a good way). Today’s was something I can answer and thought it was kinda cool (and I even share one answer with […]

that’s “zdeno” with a “b”

Today, I have to admit, I am really, really happy that I’m not a Sens fan. That said, I think Mr. Chara has made a colossal mistake in signing with the Bruins. Unless, of course, it’s all about the 7.5 big per year and not about the game. In that case, good deal! I’m still […]
