November’s beauty product of the month is Olay Hydrate&Cleanse antioxidant lathering face wash. Now, this face wash, it has a back story. Sam and I bought it at the drug store earlier in the month. On the way home, I was looking at the receipt, and said, “For $14.99, this had better […]
The Liberal leadership convention kicks off today. Like a good little political geek, I’m intensely interested. I’m not a card-carrying Liberal, but they’re the only realistic opposition for Harper (sorry ’bout that, Jack), so it feels like the next election campaign will be largely shaped by what happens in Montreal this weekend.

Now, I know you’ve all been dying to know how my last hockey game of the season went. NHL hockey, NFL football, the Grey Cup, the Ashes, the Premiership…it all pales in comparison to women’s beginner’s intramurals, tier II.

After a three-week break, the Free Agent Flyers resumed play last night, with their penultimate game of the season. Entering last nights action, the team languished at the bottom of the five-team Beginner-B division, having lost their first two games of the season. The Flyers took on Chorusline, who dominated in their only […]
