“The new word for ‘Awesome’ should be ‘Scientific.'” – Billy The Kid, raising a good point, as always You know when you return home after being away for so long you can’t remember when you left and you have that one day and night off from everything to just simply exist and contemplate, eat a home cooked meal with your friends, slowly sip a few fingers of some finely aged fire, listen to some truly brilliant tunes and walk up and down the streets of the town you’ve grown to love so well, for all it’s faults, greatness and beauty?

“Jesus Christ, that’s a big fucking bear!” – Shane, imitating Gord Downie So, the handle broke off of our van’s sliding door.. again, leaving us to work as a team, those sitting in the front seats to kindly let everyone out of the back seats lest ye want to make the awkward climb over and out through the passenger door (which makes you look stupid, and you should feel stupid). It is also leaving us to wonder in which cheap-and-easy manner we shall re-attach the handle. Drill it out and screw it back on? Use a screwdriver as a handle? (It works) Tack it on with a welder ala Shane Deyotte welding skills? Decisions, decisions. We will keep you updated on our rolling, soon-to-be flaming, watery prison-grave, but for now, >> read more
