I’ve been asked a number of times “so what happens to the man and the bear?” but there weren’t any comments left so I will choose the direction of the story this time. If you are interested in the story leave a comment with your vote as to how it should continue. […]
Each Sunday I will write a short story that continues from the week before as a means of improving my writing skills. At the end of each story I will give 2 choices for you to decide how the story should continue. The choice with the most comments as of the following Friday will win and I will continue the story in that direction. […]
There are times when I will not be able to make it to the cottage on a given weekend for whatever reason. So I have slowly been trying to make my backyard more of a get away sanctuary surrounded by plants, flowers, and lanterns. I’ve recently put in an interlocking patio and I’m going to add bench seats to the deck so there is adequate seating when people come by on the weekend for a barbeque. […]
Although I have not traveled around the world as much as many people the Dominican Republic is one of my favourite places for vacationing. The flight from Canada is relatively short and the prices for an all inclusive trip really can’t be beat. I could get a return flight from Toronto to Vancouver for the same price as a 1 week all inclusive 4 star resort vacation in Punta Cana. […]
This weekend is a long weekend with Monday being Labour Day. Labour Day is the first indicator of the end of the summer and that means back to school for most students. For me, however, the Labour Day weekend means Ribfest!
Every year a number of restaurants from across Canada and the United States compete against each other on the shores of Lake Ontario at Spencer Smith Park in Burlington, […]
Here are some odd stories from around the world that happened this weekend.
A fossilized penis from an extinct walrus was sold at an auction this weekend in Beverly Hills. Even more surprising was that the auctioneers expected the 1.4 meter long penis covered in weathered skin and dry muscles to go for more then the $8,000 it was purchased for. […]
I’ve had my eye on the Sabco Brew-Magic System for a while now. I’ve always dreamt of having my own micro–brewery and with the Brew-Magic system it is a possibility. The system only produces one keg at a time, which is about 7 cases of beer, but beer only takes weeks to mature and as long as you have the storage space you could make a number of batches in one day producing a decent starting inventory. […]
Gentlemen have you ever wanted to organize a poker tournament? Maybe have a Super Bowl party at your place? 99% of the time you just send out a mass email to invite your friends over and whoever shows, shows. You don’t care if there are 8 people instead of 10. […]
This past week I was introduced to Deal Locker. Deal Locker is a site that provides free printable coupons and coupon codes online. This site takes a bunch of coupons and puts them in one, easy to use spot for us to search them. Pretty slick idea I think. Well, […]
This week I took some vacation and decided to do some camping. I’ve been trying to go to parks that I haven’t been to before so I picked Bass Lake Provincial Park near Orillia, Ontario. I was a little weary of going to Bass Lake, because there were not a lot of campsites and it was formerly farm land. […]
