Scary Times Ahead
There has been a terrible turn of events over the last 48 hours. I have discovered that I no longer enjoy writing papers. I am proficient enough in the tasks. I should find them at least mildly entertaining to write. However, I am enjoying them less and less, with each passing paper. Now, this doesn’t mean I am no longer enjoying writing. I may not be getting any better at it, but I still love it....
Mom and Pops Salmon Stop By
Yesterday, I was blessed by the sudden arrival of mom and dad to my small, humble abode. While they were only able to stay for a few hours, it was still wonderful to be able to see them.
Stars - In our bedroom after the war
I have been listening to the Stars new album, “In our Bedroom after the War”, and may I say, I am impressed. I postponed buying this album for an extremely long period of time, as every review I had read had suggested that the album did not even come close to matching the greatness of their 2004 realest, and Juno winning album “Heart”, or the 2005 release, and Juno winning album “Set Yourself On...

Elder Scott was a...

My Interesting Thoughts Blog
Why don’t I have all of my blogs compiled as one blog? Because i want separate blogs….. is that too much to ask. That, and I secretly hope, one day, to have some form of respectfulness, and I will need at least one blog that is full of smarty pants type information, and void of travel logs, thoughts, musings, and other rambling. So, thank you tumblr for providing that. Thank you ...
Fancy Pancy Music For Your Ears
Without parallel, is how i would describe the R3-30 countdown. Not that it is actually amazing, but it is officially the only independent countdown of Canadian Indi Music in Canada. Therefore, as the sole progenitor of indi ranking, it is “with-out parallel”. Simple really. That said, it is actually very good. Between the witty banter of Craig Norris and Pedro Martinez, the infamous...
