I’m announcing the launch of a new initiative later on this week, an idea which helped to stimulate and inspire the weekly blog watch I write. I hope you’ll check it out (I’ll be posting about it on Wednesday). But even if you don’t, rest assured Edmonton content creators continue to wow their community with [...]
After such a glorious summer, the last few days have been pretty tough to take. Not because of the gloom so much, but because of the chilly temperatures. But it ain’t fall yet. So let’s focus on something else: excellent content from interesting Edmontonians who give a shit… About something other than the weather. If [...]
It felt like we got our first taste of the cold last week.

There’s lots of excellent commentary for you to digest, maybe over [...]

Not since the last Pope was elected by Jesus himself have we seen so much coverage of the Catholic religion. And this week’s FML Friday honors Catholics — well, features them, anyhow — because let’s face it: [...]
Hey everyone! I just returned from a two month, 4000 km overland journey through Central America. Although I am beginning to reacclimatize to life in Edmonton, I still have travel on the brain.
