Yeah. I know the market for condos in Edmonton has been rough for a while now, but I have to imagine that there may be a few potential buyers on the sidelines waiting for a some more BOC rate cuts, which should continue (hopefully) over the next 12 months. If I were a buyer, I know I'd probably...

Convenient (and disgusting) how she loosened the old rules to permit this type of personal enrichment. I'm old enough to remember when she would have cried bloody murder if Alison Redford pulled this type of stunt.

I do, and have for 10+ years. Currently on a hybrid schedule, though.

Ward O-day'min:

Obj3cts is a cool space. I enjoyed a ridiculously large cookie and coffee from them yesterday. The home decor section is cute but everything was wildly out of budget for me. (A $1200 chess set, $350 small desk lamps, etc.)

^Yeah, David A is referring to the gym that was across from Spork Chek's second level. I believe it was a World Gym at one point, among other things. Was a popular lunchtime workout spot for a lot of my coworkers over the years. I'm assuming the newer Good Life in Commerce has filled that void...

This was the evolution of my feelings on July 1st:

They make my favorite Americano of all the downtown coffee shops. A nice addition to the neighborhood, particularly with the loss of Credo a few blocks away.

^Holy shit, I was just about to say that the last time I was there, I saw a mouse, too. I never returned.

Look, I don't love every signing that Jeff Jackson made today, but at least the questionable ones were for low money (Perry & J. Brown), and locking up Arvidsson, Skinner, and Henrique for $10m is some nice business. The D is still a bit of a mess, but Jackson has given this team the...

^I was there! Felt very well attended (even more so than the above picture implies) and was a great time. Probably the best bang for your buck sports entertainment in Edmonton.

The fact that Clearshades thinks that Paul Kane is used only for "dog runs" makes me think that Clearshades might be thinking of the wrong park entirely. Baffling comments.

How do you persuade Nurse to waive his NMC to go to San Jose?

In some ways 2006 was a more painful loss, but in other ways this was worse. Very difficult to sleep after coming so close but ending up just short. Hell of a season and playoffs by the Oilers. I hope we get a great GM to replace Holland.

I walk by at least once a week, and they have a steady but small crew that's been working on the north-facing townhouse units on most days. If there's anything currently being done inside the hospital, I honestly can't tell.

They really should just move up the season to start a month earlier. Hockey in late June is fairly unnatural, and I don't understand why the NHL wants to compete with the NBA playoffs directly.

Superstitions are moronic, I know, but whenever I go to Rogers for a playoff game (live or a watch party), the Oilers lose, so I'm not going to tempt fate. I will be white-knuckling it in my living room, instead.

They had some of the best selection in the city. I liked them way better than HMV in that regard.

^Exactly. It's fine.

If Broberg (on his off-side, at that) can be a long-term solution to stabilize the troubled play of Nurse, that's not only huge for this series, but the longer term.
