Is that a bird? Is it a plane? No it's over 9000 dragonflies.

So It's august 3rd and Winnipeg has so far had a hot and beautiful mosquito free summer. (suck it, Edmonton)

It's 9PM the sun is setting and I look up in the sky.. hundreds of dragonflies two meters overhead skittering one way and the next.

Has anyone nominated Taz Stuart for the Order of Canada yet?

ASPCA commercials

Are people really being motivated to donate by images of bored looking dogs and cats while bad 90's love ballads play in the background?

I love animals, but these commercials are just stupid.

Cover of the Winnipeg Sun on 7/31/11

So the cover of the Winnipeg Sun has Winnipeg Jet Andrew Ladd getting married.

I know it's been a while since we've had the NHL, but is it really front page material?

In Atlanta it wouldn't even be in the newspaper unless he paid to put it in the classifieds.

I mean c'mon. Congrats to the guy and his wife, but what the heck.
