Found on a bulletin board in Airdrie’s Towerlane Mall. I hope she found someone to knit her that awesome-looking…housecoat?

This plastic kid’s toy sword was found hanging on a wall in a dollar store. Your englishes are have broken!

No, but I could use that fur to knit this sweater I’m working on.

These enormous boxes of Aviv “Passover Matzos” are now on sale at your neighbourhood Costco. Oy vey!

Found in the “Rare Book Room” at Powells, the world’s largest bookstore, in Portland, Oregon.

I drew this on the butcher paper tablecloth at Montana’s, where Kendra and I dined before catching Pirates 3. Kendra wrote the “Ahoy Mateys!” part, and the speech bubble, which are awesome.

Also found in Powell’s, this sticker stands for the cry of artist’s wives everywhere, once they realize that marrying an artist means they will never have money, practical household items, or joy.

This is MY wife, who married a quasi-artist, and who is clearly happy about it.

Lastly, here is a sweet vehicle decal we saw near Revelstoke. “Creating your grandchildren’s heirlooms,” is the company’s motto. Great. As if you didn’t have enough junk of your own, now your grandma’s gonna offload that giant wooden weaving loom that’s been in her attic for 76 years.
