Stairbombing — Central Secondary School

As a person with a disability, Jeff has always had a contentious relationship with stairs. While taken for granted by most, to Jeff, a flight of stairs is a sign that boldly states “Not Welcome.” We are quick to make up excuses as to why we can’t make buildings accessible, like they’re too old or… Continue reading Stairbombing — Central Secondary School

Cripz Goes to the Movies: Twilight

As we’ve mentioned before on this site, the genesis of this comic really came from the lack of representations of disability in the mainstream media. Recently, we decided if there were no great representations then perhaps we could start inserting disabled characters into movies we all know and love (or love to hate). So, today’s… Continue reading Cripz Goes to the Movies: Twilight

Where are the balls?

Jeff was watching the North American Power Hockey Tournament online when perhaps the best quote ever was uttered by the two amateur announcers: Female Announcer: “The big North American Power Hockey Cup, that’s where all the balls are.” Male Announcer: “That’s right, you just have to remember to take the balls out before putting the… Continue reading Where are the balls?

Intervention: Volume 2 — Western (un)Fair

Some other reasons not to go to a fair… Babies (and pre-teens, who are like babies only they kick harder when you pinch their cheeks). Games you can never win…it’s like being a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Carnies. There are carnies at fairs still, right? Vomiting (both food and ride related). Cattle wrangling/Cock… Continue reading Intervention: Volume 2 — Western (un)Fair

Barcelona Travel Log — Day 14 — Insert confusion

After sleeping basically all day yesterday, it was finally time for Melody and I to take to the skies and return to the Great White North. Checking out of the hotel and catching the bus like pros, we made it to the airport in amazing time. Unfortunately, this would be the last “easy” thing that… Continue reading Barcelona Travel Log — Day 14 — Insert confusion

Barcelona Travel Log — Day 13 — And then there were two…

As it was a month ago, Clara and I are once again separated by an ocean. Because of some mis-planning and bad calender abilities, we ended up having different return flights to Canada, with Clara leaving this morning and Melody and I flying out tomorrow morning. In order to make Clara’s flight, we got up early today and hit… Continue reading Barcelona Travel Log — Day 13 — And then there were two…

Barcelona Travel Log — Day Elev…Twelve?

So this morning, we actually woke up at the kind of time that tourists usually wake up.  Except like an hour later than most people in this hotel.  Still.  Good for us. After frittering away a couple of hours doing God knows what, it was time to head out to Placa Catalunya to aimlessly stroll… Continue reading Barcelona Travel Log — Day Elev…Twelve?

Barcelona Travel Log — Day 11 — Us versus the Mountain

With our eyes set firmly on Montjuic, a mountain featuring several big museums and the Olympic stadium, it was time to forgo our sleep-in routine and get cracking on the day bright and early. After a big breakfast we set off, determined to conquer the hill. We were so quick to get out the door,… Continue reading Barcelona Travel Log — Day 11 — Us versus the Mountain
