I've got my first piece in the Calgary Herald today (hey, doesn't that just assume there may be more someday??), a guest humour column on the Editorial Page. You can probably view it online at:

http://www.canada.com/calgaryherald/index.html if you register for the digital content.

It was a piece referring to the booming wait times in ER rooms, now approaching 11 hours!! If you're going to sit in an emergency room that long, you need to be prepared...

You can also read online about the mayhem this fresh snow has been having on morning commutes. Our local version of the Autobahn (Deerfoot) was a particularly good source of fender benders...

Short one today, I have to run around now and buy a couple dozen copies of The Herald...

Chow for now!!

I'd like to see an article about why companies, bloggers make you jump through hoops and fail to give you the title of the article and make you fill out countelss forms with cryptic verification numbers that fail to show up even when you type them in.

Or worse yet you cant't read them and when you do punch them incorrectly it has timed out and then you have to decipher the words again which were obviously put there by by the same people who brought you the breathalizer and the drunk driving tests.

You know the one where you have to put your hand down your pants and hop around singing It's a Long Way To Tipperary!!

BTW congratulations. Wish I could read the article.

It's just taken 6 times to do this.

Whoops!!

I guess I should have tried that link myself first...

For my penance, I'll do it right now.

BTW - the name of the article (ironically enough) is "How To Kill Time In An ER Room" (or apparently a digital newspaper site...)

I could think of something else to kill right about now.

I hope this leads to bigger and better things for you.

Oh boy...

The site now appears to be down completely.

What have I done???

There has been a massive protest.
The People are demanding Charlie Chicken and the man who has taken his place has got to go.

Granted this imposter posing asThat Dan Guy seems to have no feathers on his body either.

We are unable to respond to your comment at this time, as That Dan Guy and Charlie The Chicken are currently getting matching Tweety Bird tatoos...

Please try again...
