Dad. MaxVax. Blood donor. Strives to be good, not bad 🇨🇦

I’ve grown tired to the point of despondency by the politics of grievance
Hmm

Probably not in Calgary 🇨🇦 at Class Clown for their Coney Fries*

crinkle-cut fries topped with a sweet & tangy beef sauce, melted cheese, and crushed Hawkins cheezies, and garnished with chives

Delicious & healthy (or maybe not the latter)

* but come up & enjoy them

Original green dude is cooler than the big head robot one. And the later versions trying to combine them are the right decision with the JLU animated version doing that best

The consistent use of the three dot thing on its head is good to add some flavour

💯. The whole series was great.

Started with Book of Three, same age, Gr 4. Picked it up in a bookshop in Victoria BC, read the first few chapters in the shop waiting for mum shopping

Plowed through them all in record time. Within a yr Gwydion was the name of my first D&D character in California

Excellent run

Herc & Amadeus were a great buddy road trip comedy duo with a tour of marvel’s odder places & supporting characters, with just enough real drama to keep it grounded

Big thumbs up on the run

Happy 5th birthday to our good boy, Juno

Born on Remembrance Day 🇨🇦

Makes all of our lives better by being part of our family

Tells you a lot about yourself when you spot a multigenerational group all in white lurking about in the 🇺🇸

Wedding?
Family reunion photos?
Cult?

I assume cult. Always cult

Thanks to the folks at ATB (get a Bluesky account!) & Derp Dog Studios (you too!) taking photos @riverparkdogs.bsky.social last weekend as part of Random Acts

These pics of Juno are fun action shots and bring our family real joy

Maybe they just wanted to hear you sing the 70s classic

On Friday, I’m making chili dogs and drinking local beer while watching Game 1 from home with friends. Slightly cheaper

To be fair, I live 3,220 kms and three provinces away from the SkyDome

So I’d probably have to deal with some other costs to get to the game

Voted today in municipal election at a school without students (week 3 of strike)

Got the Flu vax, but not sure when I can get COVID jab

All of which are more expensive or less efficient (or both) because of Danielle Smith & the UCP

@alberta.ca

This is a great province. We can do better

I had them all. They used to battle my Star Wars figures, my DC & Marvel mego figures

So cool

Rest well

The biggest challenge historically for me has been school board. Just don’t really pay attention

This year, with a bunch of folks who claim to not be running together (they appear to be lying) on small-minded ucp style platform, it’s more important than ever to do some research on school board

Shame the folks in USA won’t be able to watch the Dan Shulman & Buck Martinez broadcast on Sportsnet we will enjoy in Canada 🇨🇦 for BlueJays

Two fabulous voices, stentorian & passionate, with knowledge of both teams and a real passion for the game. Not perfect but fun

Buck also has great hair

Veggies and herbs

Start sweating those onions. Get a little brown

Start smelling up the kitchen

Canadian 🇨🇦 Thanksgiving this weekend

So it’s time to take a day off to make my Turkey stock that I’ll use for gravy, stuffing, and later soup etc

I’ll start with:

Roast some turkey thighs, wings, and a back and gizzards

Awesome

Beloved Wife is on the other side of the Dome from you after flying out from Calgary to visit friends

While she would have also enjoyed a nice, low-stress, relaxing, inconsequential game, she’s super stoked to be there today

Happy birthday @comicsinthega.bsky.social

Glad that folks like you and your Bronze Aged buddy keep us entertained and engaged in … let’s say weird times
