I need a new back today. Despite the sit up and other exertions of unbelievable dedication, the back still goes. And it is quite prepared to go before just before the summer holiday begins. Such is life. Good thing I plan to do nothing.  •  Nevermind those who 3% of folk who think George W. Bush …

Were any of you aware that Gen X at 40 is being rated highly amongst Canada's top 25 political blogs?  •  Not me. I spend way more time giving attention to the beer blog these days - though I still beat the drum...or flog the horse, depending on your point of view. Nutty. I had no idea. Jay should …

I had no idea you were so dependent. A flood of emails have struck my gmail right in the mid-section screaming "Where are the Friday Bullets???" It was tough yesterday. I don't have internet addiction so much as blog admin addiction. I get the shakes when I can't patch into the rear end of this …

I don't usually get caught up in the bashing of various news sources. The Toronto Star gets its share of grief from folks with a variety of levels with incoherent thought - leaving the brighter stuttering when they see the error of their ways. But this column/article/piece, for me, is worth a bit …
