My new Saturday tradition is falling asleep between 5-6 pm for 3 hours and waking up confused.
I lived on snowmobiles and four-wheelers when I was a kid in Charlotte County.
I needed a pick-me-up this morning and this hit the spot.
Clapping along elicited some odd looks from my elderly neighbours.

Update on Mr. I Don't Need Your Advice, I Have AI: Out of everyone who offered him advice, he thanked only me. I told him to take a union rep with him, and he had one. As expected, he got a slap on the wrist.
I called in sick tonight (mental health). I tell others not to feel guilty for calling in sick. I need to take my own advice.
Anyway, here's some Priest.

He has an air of superiority about him that's off-putting. He tries to sound smart by using AI but it comes out forced and unnatural. It's like he's putting on a show—"Look at me, listen to my big words."
I worry he's going to snap and take a lot of people down with him.
He's in no danger of losing his job (we have employees who've done far worse things than him and they're still employed) but he could be pulled from his cushy assignment and put in an area with greater supervision. Given his fragile mental state, I worry about how he'll handle a sudden change.
He's a vocal proponent of using AI for everything and after consulting with whatever platform he uses, he decided to go it alone. I shook my head. It's not my business but at the same time I don't want to see someone get into avoidable trouble.
Last night at work one of our lazier employees expressed anxiety over an upcoming HR meeting regarding his lack of productivity. We offered advice—specifically, do not go into any meeting with management by yourself, and go talk to your union rep—but it fell on deaf ears.
Thanks to a recent CBC Front Burner podcast I know more than vaguely what it means, and I wish I didn't.
It used to be the Fundy Hospital. I was born there.

Weekends are for a different form of wake and bake, where you have a nap from 5-10 p.m. and since you have no hope of getting a proper night's sleep, you have coffee and a joint.
I admit, some of their bags are beautiful.
I posed this question on Facebook: "Do thoughts and prayers actually work? Asking for a friend." Someone replied, "They work! Tell your friends!" Sigh.
If It can happen in Tumbler Ridge, it can happen anywhere.
Out of that vaunted QB class of 2018 (sorry, Josh Rosen), SAM DARNOLD is the first to win a Super Bowl. Not Baker Mayfield, not Lamar Jackson, not Josh Allen. Sam Freaking Darnold.
I switched to listening to the Super Bowl on TSN Radio because watching the Patriots' offence was offensive to my eyes.
"One of the worst performances by an offence in the Super Bowl." Yep, the Patriots have been exposed.
The halftime show was infinitely more entertaining than the first half.
I was chilly and needed a hoodie. Still repping #BillsMafia.
Still pissed Sam Darnold got to the Super Bowl before Josh Allen.
Currently blasting through my earbuds.

Meanwhile, I'm excited to take a break from watching the trainwreck that is the 2025-26 Toronto Maple Leafs season.
I'd love to support local businesses but they're out of my price range.
Oh wow. Maybe I'm not ordering the right things. lol The last time I went I paid close to $20 for fish and chips.
I love Deluxe, but I don't love having to take out a small loan to eat there.
Another reason why, at age 54, Judas Priest has finally become one of my favourite bands.
