Dear Kindle, It’s not Me, It’s You
Wasn’t it just a few days ago when I proclaimed that Venus Rising would not be published on Kobo for a few months? Yeah, well, forget that. It’s on Kobo now! Â …

I’m so proud of my colleagues at Free-FM for the way we handled our night at the 10th annual Rock the Park. We came, we saw, we rocked and I did get to do the one thing I wanted most – meet Tommy Shaw. But it was only because of sheer luck. The band did not submit to a meet-and-greet with us or our contest winners. If not for Toto keeping us waiting for 40 minutes, Mr. Shaw and I never would have had a moment. …
I’m giddy at the thought of tonight. I’ve been very lucky to be able to meet so many of the musical heroes of my youth. Â And one of them is coming to London to perform at the 10th annual Rock the Park and because Free-FM is presenting tonight’s entertainment, there’s a very good chance I’ll get to spend a little time fumbling for words in front of him!

I’m really torn about this review.  They say film critics are failed film students.  Well I wouldn’t call myself failed but I do know how hard it is to write fiction. …
A dirtbag by the name of Christopher Gale was finally convicted this week in London of murdering his girlfriend three years ago. Â He shot her in the head and buried her body in the yard, all the while telling people she ran away. His story unraveled and after a mistrial in March, a jury found him guilty this week. Â Â …
Real-life heroes and heroines don’t come along very often. Â 5-year-old Jayden Sink of Topeka, Kansas is one of mine. Â Here’s why: …

Everyone, meet Darby. Darby, everyone. Â Darby is Spice’s cousin! She’s the fur-baby of a brother and sister-in-law on hubby’s side. Â …
Saturday’s balloon ride required us to get up around 4:30 am so we could make it to the other end of the city for 5:30 am. Â This wasn’t too far from our regular weekday routine except that we couldn’t have much coffee because we didn’t want to go up with full bladders. Â By the time we made it back to our vehicle it was about 9:30 am. Â …
Did you hear about the 3 wannabe Canadians who don’t want to pledge allegiance to the Queen? They claim it’s against their rights. Â What rights?!?!? Grrrrr. Â It’s the subject of this week’s Brandt’s Randt. Â …
Slowly we’re clearing away some forgotten stuff from the basement. There has been talk of shelf building and that sort of thing. Looking around under the stairs the other day I found a handful of magazines. Some are comics (worthless, I checked) and one is a Woman’s Day from March 11, 1980. Â …
So the sixth time was the charm! After five cancellations because of weather, my milestone birthday gift got off the ground on Saturday morning.

A Windsor man was treated pretty poorly last weekend. Â All he wanted to do was see some really cool Lego buildings and things and he was unfairly profiled! Â …
Here she is.  My third motorcycle in five years: B3! …
We had a pension plan session at work yesterday.  I remember sitting through these things 25 years ago and wishing for a meteor to crash through the ceiling and take me out. That’s how boring it was! But at this stage of the game, one is better off paying attention. …
Am I an Aunt? A Big Sister once removed? We’re not really sure what I will be to my Little Sister’s newborn son, except interested and involved! Â …
