Is there a favorite exhibit in the Ukrainian Museum you would recommend?

Which hockey team has the local's hearts?
Back in the 80s, it was Oilers and Leafs. I think it's mainly Leafs now, tho I could be wrong.
I count seven teams closer than the Leafs. This is crazy talk.
Less geography than the Leafs being the traditional team of English Canada. Add in Prairie provincial rivalry that makes it hard to cheer for teams from Alberta or Manitoba, plus some resentment of not having a team in Sask., and it makes some sense. As well, Wendell Clark played for the Saskatoon Blades (the junior hockey team), and there's still that emotional connection. More generally, there are plenty of kids from Saskatchewan playing all over the NHL, so that probably also affects rooting interests. Drive by pretty much any fuckdump town and there'll be a sign that says it's the home of some hockey guy.

My research tells me that there are 5,300 black people in Saskatoon. Did they take a wrong turn somewhere?

They ain't the only ones.

Verns is actually really good, tho I haven't had it in decades. Just an insane amount of toppings—like deep dish without the deep dish crust. The pizza of choice for fatties.

I thought you said there were no ethnic sandwiches to be had?

Pizza is not a sandwich, sir.

Lord, what an obscene amount of meat on that thing. With every ten pizzas, you get a free operation to unclog your arteries.

Probably. Not my thing, so I can't say. I will say I smell a lot more pot walking around in Ottawa than I ever did in Saskatoon.

Since legalization it is my observation that damn near everyone in Boston is high as hell. I don’t smoke much anymore but I do enjoy the aroma about town.

Legalization is coming here in October and one of my sisters is looking forward to it to relieve some persistent anxiety.

I envy those whose anxiety is relieved. I find it makes me super paranoid and unfit for social situations.

Red wine relaxes me like no other booze. Making my own makes it affordable for me to cheaply unwind every evening. A couple good glasses and my stress melts away.
