My Blog. My Rules.: Jethro Tull, Me and Paul
http://worstblogevernewfoundland.blogspot.com/2014/03/jethro-tull-me-and-paul.html
My Blog. My Rules. My little bit of Paradise. March 23, 2014. Jethro Tull, Me and Paul. 1984 seems like a lifetime ago. For many it is. 30 years. Jesus, where does the time go? I wasn’t yet 20, carefree and really naïve - truth be told. Party hardy; university would take care of itself. I had a girlfriend, a driver's licence and I could buy beer. Living the dream. It’s a wonder I’m still here, I was that fucking stupid. And we all had a favourite album. Zeppelin III. With Jethro Tull, for me, Benefit.

Roughing it in the Blog: Letter to an Expectant Parent
http://roughingitintheblog.blogspot.com/2013/01/letter-to-expectant-parent.html
Wednesday, January 2, 2013. Letter to an Expectant Parent. When the pregnancy test is positive, your attitude is meant to be too. You think that all your emotions are meant to be joy, excitement and pride. But it is normal to feel nervousness, anxiety, uncertainty and even, perhaps, a looming sense of dread. You look at the world around you, and all its imperfections and you wonder what you’ve done bringing a new soul into it to suffer amidst the mess you and the generations before you created. Sometimes...

Political Analysis of Pressing Issues in Canada. RIP Pressing Politics: The blogging days are over. March 12, 2013. I knew today would come eventually, and it finally has. I started this blog last year partially out of boredom and partially as a vice. Now it’s time to put it to bed. Some of you may have noticed that … Continue reading →. Error: Twitter did not respond.

My Blog. My Rules.: Groupies
http://worstblogevernewfoundland.blogspot.com/2014/05/groupies.html
My Blog. My Rules. My little bit of Paradise. May 8, 2014. Last Saturday, with Timmie’s in hand - 5 small coffees and 40 timbits ($14.03 Vicki Kaminski, if you’re reading this) - I dropped in to see Paul for my weekly visit. I normally drop by on Thursday’s but had to wait until the weekend. I’m glad I did. 8220;Who do you want to hear? 8220;No shit.”. Anyway, the ladies with said coffee hear this and come over – all giddy and pumped on caffeine. 8220;Play Harry Hibbs. Do you know Harry Hibbs? We used to...

My Blog. My Rules. My little bit of Paradise. April 5, 2014. I love this exchange. Sansa: "Does it give you joy to scare people? Sandor: "No, it gives me joy to kill people. Killing's the sweetest thing there is.". Below is his audition for the part. It’s striking and powerful. It’s no wonder he landed the role. Labels: Game of Thrones. The Hound.

Roughing it in the Blog: March 2011
http://roughingitintheblog.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 9, 2011. How F*cked Up Celebs Can Help You Talk With Your Kids. My kids dont watch much TV. When they do watch TV its pre-selected videos, typically. The main reason I dont want them watching TV has little to do with program content and more to do with ads. Ads, brands, marketing and the constant flow of pop-culture junk are, to me, more dangerous than watching a violent show. My eldest heard it and immediately started quizzing us: Who are you talking about? Who has tiger blood? Sometime...

Roughing it in the Blog: Christmas in Retail
http://roughingitintheblog.blogspot.com/2012/11/christmas-in-retail.html
Friday, November 30, 2012. It is on us once again: the Christmas shopping season. And it doesn't matter how anti-commerce hippy-dippy you are, you're going to wind up in a store at some point during this month of madness, even if it's just to get groceries. That parking you battled? She battled it too. Except she battled it with the awareness that if she walks through the doors five minutes late she'll have 15 minutes pay docked. She's been working ten hours now, having picked up an extra back-to-back sh...

Roughing it in the Blog: The Beauty of The Difficult Child
http://roughingitintheblog.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-beauty-of-difficult-child.html
Wednesday, August 7, 2013. The Beauty of The Difficult Child. I have a difficult child. I used to say I had a child with ADHD. Then it was a child with Anxiety. Or maybe it was food allergies. Or trauma. Or perhaps Oppositional behaviours. The child has been diagnosed with all of these and more. This is a child that for three years woke from every nap screaming and crying. Who required about an hour of comfort for the pure torture of having woken up. This is a difficult child. The child is simply a diffi...
