Update on the Simon Brush™

2 August 2006 by YukonJen

Tony Beckerman said: August 1st, 2006 at 2:36 pm “The “Simon Brush™” looks like it was originally made by a company called “Bobbie”, who makes Bobbie Pins etc. That particular model was probably discontinued many years ago.” So, for all you people out there who have stuff from 25 years ago, check to see if …

TABARNAC

1 August 2006 by YukonJen

I wore my Tabarnac t-shirt today. It’s like I’m going around swearing at the world. That’s exactly how I feel. Today. One day at work, a colleague and I were talking and he said that he didn’t see much difference between English Canadians and Americans. We were the same culturally (pop culturally–I’m guessing). I know …

The short of the long on The Brush

29 July 2006 by YukonJen

The short story of the long story below is: Tony is looking for a replacement brush for Simon. I haven’t actually figured out why Tony is trying to find a replacement brush, but that could be for another time. The specs on the brush are (see entry below for pics): plastic silver coated paint 15 …

A Brush and a Celebrity

29 July 2006 by YukonJen

Not a brush with a celebrity, but–quite literally–a brush and a celebrity. Actually, it’s not even my brush, but it is Simon Cowell’s brush.

Smoked Trout Salad

27 July 2006 by YukonJen

I had dinner with my friend KatieBird the other day. We were talking about cooking and eating and food in general (one of my favourite topics–of course!). She mentioned that her husband likes variety–trying something new all the time. She said she’s completely happy plugging along eating the same thing–well–because it works. I said I …

Melted Cow

25 July 2006 by YukonJen

No, this is not a recipe. It has been HOT here. HOT. HOT. HOT. I’m melting. But at least I haven’t keeled over like this cow…poor thing.

You are just a fat bastard with a limp dick and a dog that needs therapy

21 July 2006 by YukonJen

I just dug this entry out of my collection of starts for blog entries. I’d started this story sometime last year when I was still living in Healdsburg. I used to walk around Fitch Mountain every Sunday morning with my neighbours. We called ourselves Fitch Mountain Fitness. I haven’t seen my neighbours for awhile, let …

Whenever Minutes

18 July 2006 by YukonJen

When is it OK to sit on a toilet and use your cell phone? NEVER! That’s why they should be called When NEVER minutes. Not whenever minutes. Here is an excerpt from and email I received today. I can’t believe this sort of thing happens. I mean, people in California barely even smoke for Christ’s …
