    Orders From the Neighbour

    My neighbour gave me orders today. She's going away for the weekend. If her son has a party, I'm supposed to break it up before the cops get there and confiscate any marijuana I might find. She told me this on the front lawn. My neighbour's daughter was standing there smirking at the...

    Where the hell is my wallet?

    Black leather, chewed by a dog on one end, contains a bank card, a driver's lisence, a co-op card, a credit card, and some other cards. What the hell did I do with it?

    Soooo....

    I was just ripping some boards off the wall and found some WWII war posters. They're pretty rough and look like they were likely ripped out of the Star at the time. My guess is that cash value might be close to ten bucks if I bought the buyer $20 worth of beer first...these things are ripped...

    It Was Just Like a Beer Commercial

    I was out mowing and mowing and sweating and sweating. My wife had gone out shopping. I told her to buy me a bag of potatoes and some tobacco before she left, but had no other requests. She came home just as I was finishing mowing the front. She had bought me not one, but two kinds of beer...

    The Reverend and the Bridge Troll

    I was walking over the footbridge from The Forks into Old St. Boniface the other night...you know, the bridge that Stephen Harper made a point of insulting during the last election. That cost the stupid little bastard 5,000 or 10,000 votes right there. Winnipeggers love that bridge. It’s...

    Gurmant in Trouble Again.

    Looks like Gurmant Grewal and his have been breaking the law. Now, according to the standards that the Harperites apply to others, this shows that there is widespread corruption within the Conservative Party. I think a major investigation is in order, not just of Grewal and his wife, but of...

    Wooo-hoooo

    Some woman just e-mailed me saying that she has implements for my walking tractor. She didn't say what though. Hopefully she has a deep tillage and a riding sulky. I really, really want a riding sulky. It would make my walking tractor one of the most dangerous inventions known to mankind. I...

    Conservative Economics

    It strikes me that when Conservatives figure out their budgets, they skip a lot. If their economic policies were a household budget, they wouldn't put in any for: Upkeep for their home and property (environment) Tipping the waitress at the bar (foreign aid) Buying presents for family...

    I finally got my office moved

    Last week I got this room patched and painted. I got most of the crap out of here, although I lost knick-knack battle and there are porcelain dust collectors on the built-in shelves instead of books. Today I went all out. I tore down the computer and all the crap attached to it. I untangled...

    Dogs are Smarter and More Tolerant than Harperites

    I saw Harper and his miscreant homophobes on TV today. They seemed hell-bent on proving themselves to be unelectable, even completely unpalatable, once again. At first I thought I must have heard wrong. Vic Toews, a man who has been embarrassing Manitobans for years, was on. He seemed to be...

    Phone Conversations

    So my phone rang just now. Disembodied Voice: Mr. Campbell? (it always pays to have your phone in somebody else's name) Me: Nope, he's dead actually...a tragic accident involving a jack-all, six gnomes and a .... D.V. Is Mrs. Campbell there? Me: Actually she just went to the wake. I...

    Summer School

    Since the Conservatives have been wasting so much time on bill C-48 and bill C-38, the government has been staying after school. The House has been sitting until midnight in an attempt to pass a budget amendment that most Canadians favour and a human rights law that would allow people to marry...

    The Big Rock Candy Mountain

    Peapod has a thread all about her own little world. Unfortunately she banned beer. As much as I like and respect Pea, there are some things that are sacred, even to me. Beer built the pyramids and Stonehenge. There wouldn't be a detached garage on the entire planet without the special powers...

    Hmmm...

    So I mowed and mowed today. Had to fix the walking tractor three times. The motor almost fell off the first time and after that it kept blowing pulleys. I took a flying belt to thigh once too. A few centimeters over and and a little higher and I'd be singing the castrati parts in the Johnny...

    Johnny

    Did you see any of the South by Southwest festival this year, Johnny? Apparently the Canadian bands were the big buzz down there.
