Recent pictures

Posted on August 31, 2012 By admin

I’ve added a bunch of new pictures here: http://www.flubu.com/various_pics/various_aug_2012/. This album contains pictures from a recent trip to Great Yarmouth, with an unplanned stop at the English Whiskey distillery, as well as a trip to Hunstanton and the Sea Life center with the oldies.

Some highlights of those trips:

– Bean trying to dip his toes in the sea, and getting caught and flipped by some breakers in Yarmouth
– Bean acting like a dog during his trip to EW
– Being caught by a flash storm in Hunstanton and eating really good (and fresh!) fish and chips on the prom.

Fun with statistics

Posted on August 31, 2012August 31, 2012 By admin

I fiddled around with Wolfram Alpha’s personal Facebook analytics to data mine my facebook profile. Some fun stuff appears below:

 

 

 

This one is really cool. It clusters all of my friends into how they’re related to each other. You can clearly see clusters based on periods of my life:

One more reason to hate wasps

Posted on August 28, 2012August 29, 2012 By admin

I got stung by a wasp the day after the paellacoa, more than a week ago. Yesterday morning, I noticed that the bite was really itchy and a bit red. This is what it looks like today. Damnit.

[Recipe] Cretons du Québec

Posted on August 24, 2012November 8, 2020 By admin

Ingredients

450g ground pork+ground veal
1 medium finely chopped yellow onion
1 tsp salt
3/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg
125ml vegetable stock
125ml white wine
250ml milk
75g fine breadcrumb

In a large heavy bottomed pan, lightly sweat the onions, then brown the pork and veal mince (about 5 minutes). Add all the spices, mix well, then add wine, stock, milk and bread crumbs, stirring over medium heat.

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is very tender and most of the liquid is evaporated, about 45m.

Remove the lid and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick and all the liquid is evaporated, about 10 to 15 minutes.

Remove from the heat and adjust the seasoning, to taste. Transfer to a decorative bowl or several smaller ramekins, smoothing the top with a rubber spatula. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until well chilled and firm, at least 4 hours or overnight.

* Serve with thinly sliced French bread or toasted French bread croutons.

I fucking hate fucking 4 o’clock in the fucking morning

Posted on August 24, 2012 By admin

Child woke up at 2:30 am and had a whiny hissy fit until 3:45. He’s now asleep but I’m wide awake and cursing his name.

Yay, parenthood.

Today is going to be a barrel of laughs.

Random phone messages

I was watching TV with Katy a few days ago when I got an SMS that was obviously a wrong number. The conversation that followed had Katy in tears :)

When you need some generic text to flesh out something, normally you’d turn to the standard Lorem Ipsum, but why not fill your empty site with a torrent of graphic “world-class” erotic fiction instead. Meet the handy, and hilarious, Fifty Shades Generator.

The Generator basically spits out a load of truly graphic textual musings based on a pre-defined vocabulary of sex — or 50 Shades as we’ve now come to know it. Honestly, I’m truly amazed by just how graphic it really is, but it’s right in line with what the whole female world seems to be reading right now.

Here’s a sample:

“Leaving my panties sunny side up on the floor was the least of my worries as his veiny spunk-filled spam rocket shoved deeper into my puckered brown eye and started ramming my cocoa channel. By now, my chamber of squelch was dripping like there was a midget inside me with a super soaker. Hours of slamming like this would leave any girl’s flappy meal looking like Brian May’s plughole, and I was no different! With his chorizo howitzer plowing deep into my cum dumpster, the sensation of his greasy skin flute smashing my cervix made me quake like jelly. The thrusting makes me flood my pussy batter all over his gristle missile.”

Really women, is this what you call erotica????

My take on Quebec politics

Posted on August 21, 2012 By admin

My take on a classic Bado caricature. The original, it should be noted, was with Robert Bourassa and Pierre-Marc Johnson.

Good news, bad news

Posted on August 19, 2012 By admin

Bad: got stung by a wasp this morning.

Good: I didn’t die

Bad: hurts like a mofo

Good: less than I actually feared, and wasp venom is thermolabile, so a boiling water compress helped a lot.
