Rambling Lumberjacks (Or, Hi my name is Jean, this is my brother Jean, and this is my other brother Jean)
This post doesn’t make much sense (that is to say, it makes even less sense than usual) unless you also read yesterday’s post. But if you don’t want to do that, the executive summary: I’m going to London. I’m taking a bunch of geocaching hitchhikers with me. (Are you sure you don’t want to read [...]
Here a cache, there a cache…
Three sleeps until London! Unless you count Saturday night on the plane (which I don’t). Have I rambled-on here about geocaching before? Here’s one (really old) post about it (dates back to the days when I called myself ramblingstroller and was going to write the BEST guide to Ottawa with kids EVAH). But in case [...]
Boingo Fongo Bingo
does heathrow airport have wifi? Ask (Google) and ye shall receive. Yep, Heathrow has WiFi. The reason I was asking is I’m heading for London next weekend, and I need to ping my AirBnB host when I arrive so that he can meet me at the tube and take me to my flat. (How much [...]

Mornings and Metablogging
Today started on a bad note (actually it was more like the Seussian Slu-Slumkers orchestra warming up).

First, my heart fell through [...]
Blart. (So there.)

You can see it here: http://ramblngnotebk.tumblr.com Actually, you don’t have to if you don’t want to, because I’m going to paste in my first post. Here it is: Welcome to ramblng notebk.

“Guns don’t kill people, people kill people” – and other dumbass statements
Guns don’t kill people, people kill people. People with guns kill people much more quickly and efficiently than people without them. Not as catchy, I know. And it’s tough having to sound-out all those big words. People with baseball bats kill people. Should we ban those? Yes. And while we’re at it, let’s ditch the [...]
Rewind

Did I say “CBC Saves Marriage”? I might have. I might have been in a hurry. It might have been a slap-dash attempt at a catchy headline. It might also have been almost but not quite entirely unlike what actually happened.
