Our drivers are bad and here’s the proof
Study this man. His name is Sly Grosjean and is a nominee for Canada’s Worst Driver.
Brother-in-law, Fred is concerned that Sly is addicted to his technological driving devices. Sly is a deliveryman and has difficulty with directions. He relies heavily on the GPS on his phone to navigate his way around the city. Because Sly is dependant on driving with new technology, he’s also quick to make sure that nothing is his fault.
I’m rooting for you, Sly. Win this show and justify my road rage!
I don’t think they thought this through well enough
I saw this while at Seinfeld last night…
Spring scenes in Lethbridge
Nothing to see here, move along…
Live dangerous, live in Lethbridge
This place isn’t called Deathbridge for no reason. I remember this one time where I was walking down a street and some guy just started shouting at me, “Hey, hey kid!” and I was so scared. Then I shanked him.
Maclean’s Magazine released their Canada’s most dangerous cities list last week, grading cities on homicide, sexual assault, and other crimes. Lethbridge made the top 20 list as the 19th most dangerous city.
Lethbridge ranked 49th for homicides, 14th for sexual assault, 46th for auto theft, 29th for robbery, and 45th for B&E.

IGA SMASH
Jaime Vedres has a few photographs chronicling the teardown of the downtown IGA supermarket.
I used to shop here with my family as a youth.
Trading one superstition for another
The godly folks of Raymond and Cardston have decided that it’d be sinful to hold Hallowe’en on a Sunday, so they moved it a day ahead of schedule. Makes me wonder why they participate in this demonic, evil holiday at all.
“…but for them, it’s the way it’s been done, and likely, the way it will always be done.”
Smart thinking.
Derby derp
To be honest, the Deathbridge Derby Dames kinda scare (and titillate) me. That’s because the closest thing to derby I ever got to was running into a tree, wearing my Fisher Price skates. Watch this:
“Cherri Blaster” was kind enough to send me a copy of their press release. Hit the jump to learn more. Continue reading ‘Derby derp’
Cowabunga! Pizza for a park
There’s been a lot of talk about a new skatepark in Lethbridge. And recently, the Lethbridge Skate Association got a nice boost from Panago to help achieve that goal:
The LSA wants to send a huge thanks to Panago Pizza for donating Pizza coupons to be sold by the LSA as a fund-raiser! These coupons are $10 each and entitle you to any Medium Panago Pizza!
You can pick your coupons up at West 49, Infamous and Boarderline!
This fund-raising is going towards the costs of planning and developing our new skatepark! 100% of every dollar sold goes towards our new park, so come show your support and buy yourself some pizza coupons!
I like that idea (and pizza)! I agree with Wade Gallow that Lethbridge needs more recreational things-to-do for youth, and a skatepark is a great idea. Also, skateboarding is totally badass, even though I can’t even sit on a board.
Memoirs of a Lethbian cabbie
If you’ve ever wondered what a Lethbridge cab driver gets to see, hear and smell in this spotless city of ours, check out Taxiguy’s blog. He’s got all sorts of stories and videos, ranging from hookers to pregnant teenaged moms. A very interesting side of Lethbridge most of us know nothing about!
