Dave Hill writes on ‘weapon dogs’ in CiF, and specifically on Kit Malthouse’s stupid statement : Last week Malthouse hosted a summit with members of the Met's status dogs unit and the RSPCA. All agreed on a need for further action, but none have publicly endorsed Malthouse's call for a policy of managed extinction similar to that in Ontario. Why not ? Because it won’t resolve...

Mitchieville’s Minister of Transportation has an interesting post on the soldier depicted on the ten dollar bill … * I found it an amusing read. Military themed anecdotes always have interested me.

Forgive the non-Québécois digression, but it’s mighty slow around here. Parizeau wrote a book, the Habs suck and kids are getting flu shots. It’s enough to keep a man from getting out of bed. So, yeah, Nazis. The above picture is a screen grab of a farm in the verdant suburbs of London, Ontario, and referenced [...]

Brendan Shanahan was born on January 23rd, 1969 in Mimico, Ontario (which became a part of Toronto as Toronto expanded). Shanahan grew up playing hockey in the Metro Toronto hockey system.

Thanks to blog reader Matt Blajer from Ontario, I've had the chance to try a few Canadian craft beers. Whenever he passes through London, he drops by The Gunmakers with a few bottles from his local offie. Beau's Lug Tread has to be the most impressively packaged beers I've come across. It comes in a mighty 750ml stoneware crock with a swing top lid. The essential details - such as the abv of 5.2% -...

Many blame 'weapon dogs' solely on bad owners, but is it not disingenuous to deny that animals are bred for particular traits? In a recent article Kit Malthouse, Boris Johnson's deputy for policing in London, called for all "weapon dogs" of the "bull-type" to be not only registered and muzzled but also neutered and so humanely yet effectively phased out of existence. He was writing...

That is the 2009's Grand Champion from Matt Wiater of Portland Oregon to the right. There are a few changes. Mostly, there is not going...

I spent a rather unusual weekend with my boys, Jon and Aidan. Unusual for two reasons: it was warm, short sleeves weather outside (very strange for London, Ontario where it’s more likely I’d be shovelling snow this time of year than sunning) and we spent the weekend camping in a trio of retired CN train [...]
