Episode 75 - The Chronicles of Sarnia

Some of 'Karl Waldmann's' work

This episode has absolutely nothing to do with Sarnia.  However, Isabelle was watching Narnia last night and I thought up this clever title and god damn it, I'm going to use it.

It was quite the grocery cast, Jon came along as he had to chose his new PIN for his bank card. 

Ontario has very stringent anti texting and driving laws and the fines are quite big.  This led us into a discussion of the texting culture and the sort of minute by minute nature of it.

We also talked about a seemingly fake artist.  Then Bossjock fucked up, but I caught it and restarted.  It is a great story (not the Bossjock screw up, the fake art guy).

Episode 74 - The Long Road Back

Well, we just finished dropping Madeleine and Ross off in London and helping them move in.  We travelled there though Canada with all of their worldly possessions in a U Haul trailer.

Most of this was recorded on the way home, through the US.  USA! USA!

There are a few interesting bonus bits in the podcast, be sure to listen all of the way through.  The bit at the beginning was the US border guard letting us in, the sound quality there is not that great....

Jon took some great pics and one of them is here on the post.  

We all with Maddie the best of luck, and we are very proud of her.

Episode 73 - Stop Conolozing Me

This episode contains ice cream

Oh here's that tree we were talking about

Well, off to shopping.  So we went on a Friday, which changed the rhythm of the whole thing.

Where we stopped by the falls

Isabelle has been painting cows, and looking for cows to paint and drawing cows and going to cow places.

Isabelle went to a small town fair this weekend, and also went to a workshop on 8mm film making.  Then she and Maddie did some art thing in the backyard.  I stayed inside as it was a thousand degrees.  

There was some really good stuff, some of it about the election campaign, that we recorded but Bossjock lost, so, if you want politics, go to What's Left.....

On Sunday we went and got an ice cream and then went for a bit of a hike at a local conservation area.  We talked about invasive species and about how I am an oppressor...

Isabelle has been working out a lot lately, and it is making her feel a lot more, well, healthy.  This led us into a discussion of working out and competition in general.  Isabelle is not much on that.  Then again, I played Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag for four hours yesterday to get 30 gamer points, which are, a completely useless thing.

This will be the last time I yell 'QRM!' on the show, promise.

Enjoy.
