Begonia: She’s quirky, she’s Canadian, she’s got a set of pipes.
https://youtu.be/4Y_i2IAwybw Now hear this. One of my favorite discoveries of 2019, the singer songwriter from the Prairies: Begonia. She performed not long ago on the CBC chat show Q. She’s fresh, she’s new, she’s deserving of discovery. Give her a listen, I think you might like.

David Byrne: Once in a Lifetime (Live) – SNL
https://youtu.be/bkhQKV5o1-g He rocks again. This is something else. Transformative really. If you ever liked this song, and well remember it through a lifetime, to see what the creator has done with it. And see, and feel every note in his performance. That voice, that tone, it is still there.... But it is stand up. And … Continue reading David Byrne: Once in a Lifetime (Live) – SNL
Apple, please stop doing this
The now bi-weekly occurrence of me having to re verify my identity because windows had an update. An of coarse, the phone's downstairs on the charger. Apple hates Windows. They make you pay for icloud, and still dicking it to windows users. Works fine on mac or iphone. Unreliable on the rest. I use icloud … Continue reading Apple, please stop doing this
Chef Boyardee is like cat food. It comes out of a can, costs around the same, and takes little effort.
At 2:25 a.m. it makes a lot of sense. After a joint and finishing a shift at midnight it’s about what I can do. The taste is, well, what it is. I add a Jerk sauce to make it taste like something. PC memories of Montego Bay sauce, smothers anything in spices. Makes Boyardee taste … Continue reading Chef Boyardee is like cat food.

Canada needs to spend more on defense
It's rare, but sometimes Trump is right about something. One is NATO. He wants the member nations to spend more on defense. We've got to pull up our pants and pay our fair share. Canada needs to pay at least 2% of GDP on defense. At a time when we have a warmonger president, picking … Continue reading Canada needs to spend more on defense
Donald Trump says somethings that makes me think he’s smart.
Fake news. Figured I'd start there. Lord knows it gets the networks in a bunch. But he just keeps yelling those words. Fake news. At every outcry to things he changes, to every over inquisitive reporter, fake news, he declares. And is he wrong? Something about that declaration. How it is almost comical in it's … Continue reading Donald Trump says somethings that makes me think he’s smart.

When the collectors call
It figures Bell should call just after I smoked a joint. This being the 20th time the collector is calling, and a Friday so I'm at home to answer it, I answered. The joint was still smoking when the call came in. About halfway to the end, a fine roach beginning to form, ring ring … Continue reading When the collectors call
