  • Because emergency rooms don’t require doors.

    A British Columbia man, feeling he wasn’t getting seen by local ER staffers fast enough, decided to take matters into his own hands. Since part of the wait time between arival and being seen involves getting the patient through the emergency room door, he thought he’d be nice about it … Read the rest

  • TSA finally states the obvious: “We can’t actually see what we’re looking for.”.

    I could write a small novel on the WTF that is the US’s Transport Security Administration(TSA), but the truth is it probably wouldn’t even come close to scratching the surface. Besides, the most recent TSA admission courtesy of Techdirt sort of does it for me. While the TSA … Read the rest

  • It just keeps getting better for David. Or, not.

    Remember David Abitbol? Sure you do. He’s the nutbar from Quebec who’s currently the proud owner of 2010’s nutter of the year award, after insisting he required several firearms and several more rounds of ammunition because he was being stalked by elves. Yeah, you remember him now. Apparently, he’s … Read the rest

  • Talk about your guilty conscience.

    An elderly woman was going through her things after the death of her husband, apparently preparing for a garage sale. She accidentally came across a book taken from a local library in 1936, when she and her husband were first married. Surprisingly, the library the book was taken from is … Read the rest

  • My creditcard issuer has creditcard issues.

    , , , ,

    I have the good fortune, or not–depending on your perspective, to be in posession of a creditcard. Up until last week, the card worked pretty well flawlessly for anything from ordering pizza to paying the occasional bill online, in the event I’m too damn inpatient and/or lazy to bother with … Read the rest

  • Milk-free desserts. Now, with extra milk.

    Somewhere within these two non-dairy product manufacturers, the memo that sayd they were non-dairy must have gotten lost in the mail. Or ignored. There’s now a recall on the affected products, on account of they contain milk. Consumers with milk allergies who have used Probiophilus (with Natural Product Number … Read the rest

  • Some day, Sarah’s gonna be president when she grows up.

    Just not any time in the immediate future. At least, I sure as hell hope not. Not until she goes back and revisits her history classes, anyway–do they even teach history up in Alaska? Did she even pay attention when they did? She forgot, right? Yeah, why else would she … Read the rest

  • A very frozen morning to ya.

    So as can be expected in the valley that is Ottawa, it was minus too damn cold this morning. For the sake of a little twist, though, it was also minus too damn cold in the house. Apparently, at some point between the time I dragged my ass to bed … Read the rest

  • You may have had difficulty accessing the site this morning. Oops.

    ,

    I’m a bit of a security freak. Okay, more than a bit. I was testing out a slight modification to see if I could cut down on the number of people trying to do bad things to the blog. In doing so, legitimate users may have been knocked off the … Read the rest

  • Taking being pissed off at the media to a whole new level.

    I’m not exactly world’s biggest Sarah or Bristol Palin fan, but I don’t think I’d consider going quite this far. Upset at the fact Bristol Palin advanced to the finals of “Dancing With The Stars”, a Wisconsin man took matters into his own hands, and promptly put his TV out … Read the rest
