I grew up with eastern european parents, so we ate everything - pigs feet with sauerkraut (so yummy! I've been craving that recently), chicken gizzards, chicken livers, goose livers, head cheese (we...

My husband recently met a gentleman, from Korea, I think. His name was Suk Bum.
I had a client who's name was Nick Fuk. Prounounced Fuck. I tried to call him Mr. Fook, but he'd always correct...
My boss wants me to create a spreadsheet, and although I know Excel fairly well, I have no idea how to do this or if it can even be done.
It has to do with census data - people's ages - and he...
^^Wow! Nice boss. I'm in Vancouver, and I heard about 9/11 on the radio on the way to work. We hooked up an old TV in the boardroom and watched a bit of it. Then we got a call from our head...
I'd gladly kill those people! That poor little boy. What the fuck is wrong with this world?
Apparently he's dying of cancer and has maybe a few weeks left. I hope they aren't giving him anything for the pain.
Couldn't have happened to a more deserving person. Rot in hell.
And then people snort it after he shits it out. Kinda like that kopi lewak coffee that gets shit out of a forest cat before being roasted :D
We had it at home. My dad always called it "horsepower sauce" :D
My english friends would call it the mother brown.
Interesting that she has a lifejacket on in the photo. Seriously! Some friends took us out boating on labour day, and I explained to my daughter that under no circumstances would she be taking off...
As opposed to his speaking voice, which is frightening!
The stories Ra Ra talks about reminds me of a book of short stories we read in school. It had the Lottery in it, and a bunch of other freaky ones. It was called Imagine. The only reason I remember...
Finding a foot here doesn't surprise me, except that in this case I think it would be most definitely a foul play case.
False Creek is not somewhere that gets a lot of stuff carried in on the...
Regardless of people's politics, he worked very hard for his party and his constituents. At his appearance where he announced his leave of absence, he looked very unwell. Cancer is terrible and I...
My dad wasn't circumcised, my brother wasn't circumcised, my sister and brother didn't circumcise their sons. I don't think it's a necessary thing.
My husband and most of my boyfriends had been...
In my neighbourhood, there is a halfway house for criminals transitioning from prison back to society. It is across the street from a primary school, and kiddy corner to a daycare. It has been...
His courage and strength were amazing! Once again, we don't realize how good we have it.
Godspeed, Doc :(
^^^Exactly. Discipline is hard. It takes consistency and follow-through. It's easier to just give in.
I work ridiculously hard to instill discipline in my daughter. She's not quite three,...
I love that movie! It's so cheesy! I used to always do the "It's people!!!" thing too, and my husband had no idea what I was talking about. I told him about the movie, and he said there was no way...
I avoid processed foods like the plague. Cook everything from scratch and avoid salt. Try to use organic and locally sourced when I can. Lots of fish and vegetables, although we do it rice and...
Wow! She sounds like my MIL! I usually just lie to her and say I couldn't get the time off work. I'd say stock up on the ativan and put her on "ignore". That's another trick of mine. I just...
The pictures are very cool in a death hag way!! Great find!
This kind of thing terrifies me! I did my share of stupid things when I was a teenager. I'd say I'm pretty lucky I didn't get raped or killed.
I've decided that I will put my daughter into...
I'm not really well-versed in this story, but of course have heard a fair bit. My one question is why would he have left so much money by the river if he survived? The kid found the money a long...
I guess he figured if he waited until she was 18, she'd look 50!
I've had various things happen to me that strike me as paranormal throughout my life. I believe that I see ghosts sometimes, have experienced some really strange happenings in various places I've...
I feel sorry for her parents. It kind of choked me up reading what her dad said at the funeral.
And Kelly Osborne looks like an imbecile.
My husband and I were in Toronto last week, and were driving along the lakeshore around 10 pm. It's at least three lanes in each direction. A LOT of traffic. Just as our light went green and we...
People do different things in different countries when it comes to raising their children.
My husband's cousin lives in Vietnam and married a woman from there, and they have a little girl. ...
Not that this means much, but I did a search of the State of Washington's records.
Couldn't find anything on Courtney, but I did find the parents' marriage certificate. Interestingly, it says...
We have one in Vancouver called Angel's Cradle. It's at the hospital where I gave birth. Right downtown and not too far from the Downtown Eastside where a lot of homeless/runaways/etc. live, so...
But the kid even told a lifeguard! What did the lifeguard say? "Yeah, yeah, kid, sure your caregiver didn't come up. Go play."? Seriously! The pool in our neighbourhood is HUGE, with a big...
I just don't know if I can stick around this board too much longer. Reading about what these pieces of shit do to their own kids breaks my heart so much that I don't think I can take it any more. I...
Sweet merciful Jesus! Those pictures!
I was wondering if these were fake or not. I've watched a few, but not paid a lot of attention - the tv was more background noise. The other night, though, was one with Vince Neil where he talked...
I let my 2 1/2 year old daughter watch Snow White about a month ago. I was watching it with her and was absolutely horrified! I kept looking over at her, and asking if she was enjoying it. Didn't...
How would she have even met this guy? She starts out in some small town beauty pageant at 14, and suddenly at 16 she's marrying some two bit actor? When I was 15, I knew other 15 year olds, and my...
I'd do it in a second! Heights don't bother me at all. Especially when strapped in. Imagine rappelling(sp?) down the side? That would be awesome!
I like to hike, and the Stawamus Chief, up...
Rest in Peace, Betty. You are a credit to your wonderful son and family. Your efforts have made a huge difference in the lives of many people.
^^Sweet Jesus! That poor kid! I would be terrified!!^^
I grew up on the edge of the wilderness, and we were very bear aware. And wolf and cougar aware too. There is no way that anyone should...
Boston clearly deserved to win last night - they played well, and it just seemed like Vancouver didn't even show up. I don't think they could get over their nerves or something.
The riots - I...
It was brutal, pvezz! The Garden is not the place for the Canucks, that's for sure. I just hope home ice favours them.
All I have in my head all day is the Bowie song, "Under Pressure".
...
I'm reading Cemetary Stories right now. It's a light, entertaining read death-hag-wise :D
I read Blonde Ambition on Saturday while I was getting my hair done. It was okay, but a few grammatical...
Actually, both the Bruins and the Canucks have 17 Canadian players. The only difference is that the Caucks have six more players than the Bruins.
I don't think the international players are...
EEEEEEEEEE! Tonight could be the night!!!! I'm sick with nerves about the game! Can't wait!!!
GO CANUCKS GO!
He is so cute, Michelle! I'm so happy for you that he is doing well despite his early arrival. I had a friend who had her baby at 26 weeks. Spent 3 months in the NICU, also had a "normally" large...
Well, if we say three hours x $11,000 that equals $33,000. Divide by 33 million canadians (I know, not all Canadians are taxpayers, but whatever). That works out to 1/10 of 1 cent per tax payer. ...
Helen (Hell-On) Wheels
Not to make light of the situation, but I read that as "we caught 15 strippers"
:D
I'm going to Toronto in July. Will have to drag the hubster there!
I missed the goal, too ;) I had the TV on but was trying to get my daughter into bed. Totally expected overtime, so wasn't too worried, then heard the cheering and had to run.
Personally, I...
