Can't Stop the Music

In Saskatchewan, people spontaneously form a band and play in their front yards all the time. But only on game day.

Composting your kitchen waste is de rigueur if you are an urban Saskatchewanian. It is good for your garden, keeps unnecessary waste out of landfills, and fills our neighbourhoods with the heady aroma of vegetable farts on hot, summer days. Ah, sweet decomposition.

all the world's a shitty truck, and we're just along for the ride

I wanted to stick around by the truck and clap slowly and ironically until the owner showed up, but you know, I could have been there for hours. I've got better things to do than downtempo my applause for some low-rent sports parade float. Like hassle hobos for their change.

Saskatchewan received a lot of rain and thunderstorms this summer, including this rainstorm while the sun was still shining bright.
