STOP reading books and START drinking paint

The Tournament of Hearts is sponsored by a paper products manufacturer, so it amuses me watching all the curlers wipe their noses with the back of their hand.

I saw an ad for a local bakery that said if you show up on March 1st and play "Hot Cross Buns" on recorder they will give you a free hot cross bun. I'm having fun imagining if some mischievous joker had made it up and placed the ad just to cause chaos and confusion.

From the inevitable Kurt Cobain biopic simply titled KURT. Kurt Cobain: Gather around fellas, I’ve been working on a new grunge number that’s gonna knock your socks off

Just got an email from the NYT with the subject "Invasive Crabs Have Taken Over New England" and I don't know if our response should be "Not NOW, crabs!" or just "Sure, whatever, why the hell not."

Today’s Safety Talk was the first one with an Incident Alert about an employee falling ill during a previous Safety Talk. These meetings are so repetitive that they’re becoming recursive.

Please...my times. They're very interesting.

On 9/11 I got home from work in the morning and went to bed, woke up around 2 pm and was quickly brought up to speed by a recap of the day's events. I'm still on that schedule, and lately it feels like I'm getting bombarded with that volume of bad news upon waking every single day.

I hope he offered them some sunflower seeds.

Disorderlies at Charles & Hayden? Savage!

MGM with the snipe for the Victoire. She's been one of my favourite players to watch since the Toronto Six days. #PWHL

Had an app suggest I might be interested in the group "Mobility aids buy/sell/swap Australia" and it seems the algorithm predicts I will be travelling in the near future but it won't go smoothly.

I've read two references to Doris Lessing recently and now I have a stupid Moxy Früvous song stuck in my head. My brain is so nerdy that I have the urge to beat it up.

FEED EGG

When you’ve been listening to a lot of Ethel Cain

Everybody’s circus, everyone’s monkeys.

In between rounds of shovelling snow at our respective houses my father and I are sending cryptic crossword clues we've made up for each other to solve. It's a bit of fun but with two old geezers overexerting themselves each email also functions as "checking in safe" aka proof-of-life.

When Crunchwrap Supreme Leader is informed that it isn't possible to add his likeness to Mt Rushmore, you just know that the Statue of Liberty is coming down and his fake-gold-plated likeness will take its place. I'm signing up for flight lessons now so I can fly a plane right into the fucker.
