The best thing I've read this week. And if you're old enough to remember the zines of the 80s & 90s, you'll appreciate it any more. When zines weren't explainers but this great underground documentary current of the real lives rarely considered in glossy magazines.

Been holding my breath for the past half hour.

Picture of the day today comes from Sandy Miles who spotted this sleeping lynx along the road near Shamattawa First Nation in northern Manitoba. Don't let its sleepy good looks fool you, stay safe!

Here's a tip: You can find all 514 episodes of the 1960s prime-time soap Peyton Place on YouTube (and the 1st 166 eps on Shout! Factory DVDs). Each episode takes about 23 mins. to watch. It is unbelievably soothing and, in its slow, ancient way, completely addictive. >

This reminds me of the time the National Post put Winnipeg in the wrong province. I was the Winnipeg correspondent at the time. The Winnipeg bureau was closed some months later.
