Episode 82: Who is this clown?


There is something off about this still frame. I cannot quite place it.

Happy Halloween.

"Ha! Look at that asshole with the mohawk!"
"Dad, that's my friend Mark."

Episode 80: Read 'em and weep.

Quote of the day: "Yeah, I think I saw him... I recognized him from creeping your creeping."

Clue of the day: In high school, I was given a visual arts award. Weep.

Episode 79: The ghost of XC seasons past...

Some say that I live near one of the most haunted places in Ontario. One of my friends claims that she encountered a mysterious self-flushing toilet there (Moaning Myrtle?).

I cannot speak to such rumours, but can indicate that the only disturbing thing I've experienced there is hill repeats.

Episode 79: Crazy cryptic clue

Alliteration - my high school's team name used to have it, but doesn't anymore.

Fact: it took me two years to notice this, so good luck with this one.

Episode 78: The shame spectrum


Who creeps wall posts from 2007?

PS: Apologies in regards to the crappier than usual colouring. First, I really hate colouring, second, paintbrush was not cooperating.

Episode 76: Loose lips sink ships


Will the band play until the end?

Edit: this is also a [sneaky] clue.

Episode 75: Full circle


My apologies to a certain chemistry teacher/random high school sprinter to whom "The Scientist" may resemble. I am sure you are both fine upstanding citizens who lack meth labs in your basements.

Edit: this is clue #2.

Episode 74: Crisis Averted.






Theme: significance.

Episode 73: Set-backs...

I was going to post a series of tasty but empty photos for your perusal, but then my camera's memory card decided it wanted to spontaneously delete all these delicious photos.

As such, I give you this off-centre running-related link.

Episode 72: From the archives...

Two quotes about yours truly, unrelated, just remembered, from different times, for your amusement:

"So Speedgoggles, I see that ____ changed his relationship status. Congrats on finally nailing down an Ofsaa champion..."
-anonymous

"So people actually read all this crap? They think it's funny? Well, that is very interesting. However, it seems to me to be a large waste of time..."
-Speedgoggles Sr.

The first is false, the second is undeniable.

Edit: There is a third quote, also, which I thought I should add lest my mother read this blog and get sad:

"Can I be in your blog? I'm a runner!"
-Mrs. Speedgoggles Sr.

Episode 71.5: Thoughts?

I was strolling around today and I thought of a hypothetical situation that was at once so amusing and unfathomable that I had to stop and giggle for a little while.

If you are dating someone, does it still count as stalking?

I thought about it good and hard and came to the conclusion that it still counts.

Episode 71: The internet is my oyster


...is it still fishing for compliments if it's anonymous?

Episode 69: The breakfast of champions

I am lying; I did not in fact have a martini for breakfast this morning. I did, however have something far more intoxicating: a slice of pumpkin pie.

This got me thinking.

The last time I had pie for breakfast (cherry pie that time, to be specific), I was standing alone in a parking lot at 5 am. It was the beginning of terrible, but great things.

I cannot help but think that that slice of pumpkin pie may have been an omen.

Watch out.

Episode 68: A brush with death.


I should really put a password lock on my computer, but I like living dangerously.

Episode 67: 1km mark, revisited.

Apparently my local government pays more attention than I had predicted. Guess I'll just have to buy a better permanent marker...

Have fun searching for this frame on Google street view, friends (don't worry, it's on there).

Note to self: those ugly on the inside should avoid introspective blog posts.

Episode 66: Cryptozoology


Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.

This metaphor is tight as hell.

Episode 65: Perspective

The human condition is occasionally a source of humour.
