Anyone who reads this blog knows I’m not a Mitt Romney fan. His comment about the “47 percent” didn’t make me like him any more. It also didn’t make me feel all warm and fuzzy about him possibly being the next President of the United States. I have however found something to make that idea…

For those who hadnt read my previous posts, I’m now working for Fido. Fido is a cellular provider here in Canada. Given my fondness for toys and gadgets it’s turned out to be a good fit. My faithful old iPhone 3gs finally gave up the ghost. Insert moment of silence here. So it was…

I’m a Chuck Norris fan. I have enjoyed many of his movies over the years and have nothing but respect for him as an action star. Politically however….. not so much. You see, Chuck and his wife Gena just did a Republican PSA to get out the evangelical Christian vote come election time. That’s actually…

I just wanted to give a quick shout out to Miss Carson during the demi-Centennial year of her book “Silent Spring”. For those unfamiliar with it, the book described a very near future in which one could walk through any suburban neighborhood without hearing a cicada, sparrow, or any other natural sound.

This morning as I was browsing headlines from United Press International, I came across a story about 125 University students suspected of cheating on a final exam.

This was the latest of the ongoing efforts to “humanize”, her husband, Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney. This raises a couple important questions for me. The first question that springs to mind is, “Why should I believe anything she…

Other than that, I’ve read, surfed the Web, thought about going to the pharmacy for Robaxacet (these stools are killing my back), phoned and left a message for Lynn and texted my daughter. For those who haven’t guessed, I’m a little…

This morning as I was sitting reading the news and enjoying my coffee (Keurig is awesome), I stumbled across an article from the Huffington Post. It seems Republican Congressional candidate Chris Collins was explaining his opposition to Obamacare when he rolled out this gem. “People now don’t die of Breast Cancer, Prostate Cancer and some…

Tammy is back in Sudbury, and I’m back at my trailer. We drove up on Saturday, and back to Ottawa on Sunday. That’s about 650kms each way. Since I don’t drive, that’s a lot of driving for Lynn. From the get-go, we planned on stopping at the trailer on the way home. Officially, it’s to…

Today’s post is all about the things we take for granted. This has a lot to do with being home all alone. Lynn, Cynthia and Tammy have taken my dog and run away. At least as far as our trailer. That was another thing on my niece’s to do list, spend a few days at…
