Zero reasons for civilians to have AR-15’s and MP5’s etc. They’re high capacity killing machines. No one hunts with AR’s, and we don’t have “well regulated militias”. Buncha nonsense.

Ya want to have Glocks and Sigs and H&K’s in your house or get a concealed carry license to protect your family, I’m all for that. Hell, I do.

But this fucking nonsense about any schmo walking into a store and buying an AR and I can’t bet $100 on the Mets game? Fuck that noise.
 
When my kitchen garbage gets smelly, I find the odor a lot like propane. I sit here and start smelling propane and I think, okay, I have waited too long to take out the garbage.

Well actually, propane is odorless. They add a substance to it to give it that odor for safety purposes. That substance is ethyl mercaptan.

So my kitchen garbage smells like ethyl mercaptan.

Would have been a more precise thing to say.
 
When I first moved out of the house at age 20, I was a little fuzzy on the garbage pickup schedule so I’d just put the big bag out on the balcony in the back, thinking that my roommate would see to it.

Little did I know that my roommate had made the same assumption about me.

Months later, we ended up having to re-bag all the garbage that the raccoons had pillaged through.

I counted 26 bags.
 
The length of time surprises me. I would have guesses that went on for years.


That was back in the Howie Meeker era. Talking about Howie as an announcer. Howie as a player was decades before that.

Howie had a regular televised feature where he would coach basic hockey skills to kids. It was called the Howie Meeker Hockey School.

My and my troublemaker friends called it the Hockey Meeker Howie School.
 
It's snowing here today. It's not just a little dusting in passing - it's been going on all morning. It is big substantial flakes that effect visibility when driving, and all the grassy areas and people's roofs are pure white.

I don't want to get too whiny here - I feel sure it will melt away pretty fast - that aside, this is Canada and shit like that happens - it just does - but I gotta say: it's April 6th and it's spring and I am feeling irritated by it.
