I think you should do a 30 day study, labeling each days jar with what you ate 24 hours prior to loading each jar, then do a comprehensive analysis of each jar.

Maybe I can get a government grant. I’ve seen worse.

Good luck finding an independent third party to verify your results.

He just needs NSERC or CFI to buy him a mass spectrometer to complete the analysis.

Huh, I thought he would need one of those guys that sniff fine wines.

Time only matters if it’s near Christmas break, other than that bad news is always bad news.

The best way to deliver bad news is swiftly and with kindness. Having layoffs hang over your head for months on end is awful, a quick layoff is way better than the constant “what ifs”

Seems Lady Jayne's not so gentlemanly husband has gotten himself in a spot of trouble with the Siksika Nation, for trespassing without a permit, & filming without permission. Imagine that, Cory Morgan being a dink.

The cool thing is without Twitter or FB, these guys like Cory Morgan, Ezra Levant, and Derek Fildebrandt basically cease to exist.

Anyone have any tips for buying baseball gloves for kids? Under 10. Wondering if a lightly used one from Play it again sports would be best if it’s worked in a bit?

I usually ask for gift cards for Christmas / birthdays, but I'm so bad for forgetting to use them and they pile up on me.

Finally used a Best Buy GC (with no amount written on the card) for a new PS5 game. I wish I could remember who gave me that, because who the heck got me a $10 Best Buy GC for Christmas lol...more just amusing.

Unless it's for a coffee place, I feel like gift cards at bare minimum should be $20 if not $25, no? I need to figure out who it was, so i can jokingly get them $10 worth of gift cards next Christmas, spread out for $2.50 each at various stores they like.

I love giving people Gift Cards for places they will either never use or feel obligated to use.

$20 to Enemas Unlimited?? I guess we're doing this. Brace yourselves.

Oh I love Best Buy, they definitely nailed the location. Just funny giving that small of an amount for an electronics store, where things are expensive. $10 is a drop in the bucket there...should've just stuck to Starbucks at that point haha.

I'm getting them a $10 gift card for the Mercedes dealership this Christmas. Treat yourself!
