Every time I log into WordPress, I have a look at the Freshly Pressed section. I have to be carefully not to feel insecure if my entry has not enough likes, comments, or not make the Freshly Pressed Section itself. I pay attention to book reviews and posts about blogging. I want to pick up inspiration … Continue reading Blog Spotlight: Fresh Pressed Word Press Blogs

For 2012 the web site invited read a certain number of books and it's up to the person to set the amount. Some people have … Continue reading Book Talk: Good Reads Book Challenge

Welcome to Friendly Manitoba…Until You Play Our Hockey Team
Sometimes I still can't believe the Winnipeg Jets are back. When the website jetsowner.com came to people's attention, I admit to nay saying like everyone else. The team left and all I could do was move on, with the memories of attended games sometimes told as stories over some gathering. When the Jets were in … Continue reading Welcome to Friendly Manitoba…Until You Play Our Hockey Team
We Interrupt this Blog Spotlight…
Whenever I link to a video or anything a major thought goes through my head I hope it's okay and not against copyright. The Simpson's Game of Thrones parody is a prime example.

The Simpson's have done some pretty good couch gags over the 20 plus years on the air. Recently, they turned their satirical eye on Game of Thrones by mashing Springfield with Westeros.

Wrestling with Perfection(ism)
Grrrr... For the past three weeks, I have written, deleted, written some more, pressed backspace again and again, before withdrawing my hands from the keyboard to recognize perfectionism paid me a visit. It's not the topic of my piece (Michael Geist's website), just the usual feeling of it's not good and who do I think … Continue reading Wrestling with Perfection(ism)
