You might think this is the Cat Distribution System getting its claws into me, but there is a sign about a missing black and white cat on our community mailbox. I called and left a message but no answer or reply. So I’m feeding him/her in the meantime.

Nurse cross checking Matthew Tkachuk in the head is basically like him crosschecking any other player in the appendix. He did have to get him from behind though, so he couldn’t turtle.

Just guessing here, but I think the first hame *may* have pissed the Oilers off a bit. We need to figure out how to ragebait these mofos for 98 more games.

I was at the Saddledome on Sunday to see Jimmy Carr, who was incredibly crass and also hilarious. Which is a nice segue into the Flames season, which should also prove to be incredibly crass and hilarious

I can’t figure this out. I got an unsolicited offer to buy 103 shares in Sun Life from me for CAD $81.80. They currently trade at $113. WHY on Earth would anyone ever tender their shares at such a steep discount, given it is such a liquid stock & trivially easy to sell? A very weird sort of scam.

There’s a 3 person pod next to my office. Two of my staff sit there, along with a woman from another department. Every single day, some time between 9 am and 1pm, that woman lets out between 2 and 4 monster sneezes. Every day. Only in that timeframe. At least 2 and most 4. Like the sun rising.

Lordy, from my days of building software and data for the Cdn oilpatch, M&A was a frickin nightmare because consolidated companies always paid less (economies of scale). The Fuelled CEO quoted in this article is my “nephew once removed” (cousin’s son). share.google/SZEFTWtuR6ad...

Real life things that are too funny: the Hyrox competitor that soiled herself, Joanna Wietrzyk, is sponsored by Puma. Presumably as in “I’m gonna Puma pants.”

Holy f*ck this was an enjoyable read. I know lots of you out there don’t like Carney, but I’m thoroughly enjoying that we have a genuine intellect and (if you believe this article) stone cold killer on our side. Also “Enforcer from Edmonton” rings better, just saying.
