  • J. Michael Straczynski’s autograph

    J. Michael Straczynski is one of the best writers, period. He wrote the amazing television series Babylon 5. The story in that series was phenomenal. It was actually a five-year arc. Plot lines continued through all five seasons and things that started in the very first episode were resolved in the finale. Amazing, amazing writing. […]


  • Drug Mart Sign Confusion

    There’s something strange about this sign. I drove past it the other day and turned into the small plaza. I went to the A&P to get a few groceries and then I walked over to the drug store. At the check out, I tried to use my Optimum Points Card. The cashier asked if I […]


  • A Day in the Life of a Supply Teacher

    Hello again, it’s Witgirl! I’m here to help out Chase who is busily preparing report cards this week. He feels he absolutely cannot go a Tuesday without posting a Teaching Tip, this is where I come in. I’m not exactly sure if I’m offering a tip, maybe more of a suggestion. As I am a […]


  • It Only Took Me Injuring Myself to Realize…

    Teaching is a wonderful job that I really put my heart and soul into. This job always gives me a lot of enjoyment. I make sure that I model the behaviour and attitude that I expect my students to have. I am there in the classroom, day in and day out. I don’t use my […]

    Last week I had the honour and privilege of interviewing one of Canada’s finest MCs, Classified. This was the first on-location interview I ever did for Dope FM. It is available as a podcast so please go download it for free and enjoy the vibe. I thought it would also be a good idea to […]


  • Teaching Tip Tuesday – Procedures

    Teachers need to have procedures in place for every single routine in the classroom. These procedures need to be communicated to the students. But they do not need to be written down anywhere. A procedure, quite simply, is a series of steps that should be followed in order to do something effectively, efficiently, and safely […]


  • The Human Body is Fragile

    I know that I don’t often think about the limits of my body. I take it for granted that I am young, agile, and athletic. I run and jump and play on a regular basis. I still skateboard too. Some people might think I am just a big kid. In fact, I’ve heard comments to […]


  • Be Careful What You Wish For

    Today was track and field day at my school. The grade 7 and 8 students were running events. Most of these students had no idea how to do the event which they were running. I used to do track back in the day. So I took it upon myself to instruct the students on the […]
