The Cat Came Back!

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

James Howard is (once again, after a year away pursuing a master’s degree) Winnipeg’s cleverest blogger, who brings a genuinely fresh view to civic matters at Slurpees and Murder.

His latest innovation is “Winnipeg Cat” — a macro-style image of a cat’s face in a colourblock background, adorned with text that describes or mocks some aspect of Winnipeg living.

(That reminds me — I need to make some vinarterta for Christmas this year.)

wc-historicbay

(That reminds me — I need to go to the Bay basement after work.)

wc-carman

That reminds me — Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? was a freakin’ awesome computer game to my ten-year-old self, and it was also an excellent TV program starring Lynne Thigpen and Rockapella.)

The exciting news is that Winnipeg Cat now has its own daily blog, and James will even be posting some reader submissions made with the Winnipeg Cat Generator.

Winnipeg Cat: “Canada’s only, and therefore best, civic meme!”
