By junior on December 23, 2008, at 11:42 pm Did you know that Santa has some helper elves in Florida? And did you know that Santa’s sun-worshipping assistants are in charge of ensuring that all power yard equipment is properly prepared to celebrate the Yuletide festivities?
It’s true.
On Saturday the 13th, Spouse and I hosted the office Christmas party. What preceded the party, […]

Both Spouse and I had the day off today – the first of a few in a row over the holiday season, I am pleased to report – and we started things off with a bang by getting up early and heading over to the local community centre for a […]

By junior on December 20, 2008, at 1:01 pm I couple of days ago, I posted about the story behind the making of Sebastien’s Theme, a piece of music that my band and I wrote and recorded for a movie soundtrack several years ago. I also posted a clip of the “video” for the song, courtesy of YouTube.
There are lots of things I […]
By junior on December 20, 2008, at 12:26 am “Snow-mageddon“, the snowstorm of the year, has come and gone as promised. Mother Nature behaved quite civilly, for an old lady throwing a meterological shit fit. ‘Round these parts (he said, hitching his overalls up by the straps with both thumbs) the storm began at a reasonable hour – sometime around 7 or 8 o’clock […]
By junior on December 18, 2008, at 1:35 am In 1998, it somehow happened that my band agreed to write some music – on a volunteer, we can’t pay you for this basis – for a movie that was being directed by a friend of a friend. In truth, I do remember how this arrangement came to pass, but the story is boring, pointless […]

It’s a good thing, too; when the alarm went off (having been suitably, if somewhat shockingly, advanced to accomodate snow removal activities), your faithful (?) correspondent would not at first be moved from his […]

Wish me luck, people, with ten centimetres expected between midnight and six a.m., I foresee myself entering a cold and frosty garage at six bells for the purpose of firing up the snow blower.
To quote Major Tom: […]
By junior on December 8, 2008, at 12:41 am Henry examines John, Paul, George and Ringo – four new swimmy friends for Walter the Betta (they’re in there, honest – look under the filter at the bottom right of the tank – George and Ringo are clearly visible. Or is that Paul?).
I am nothing if not a […]
By junior on December 6, 2008, at 4:11 am After many years of searching, last night I managed to find (thanks to the glory that is teh Intarwebs) not one but TWO copies of Johnny Bower’s vocal masterpiece, Honky the Christmas Goose. Recorded for charity in 1965, the tune gave the Beatles a battle on the CHUM charts in Toronto for a while that […]
