Are you a haggler?  I’ve never been good at it.  If something is priced higher than I think it’s worth, I’d just as soon walk away.  If a price is fair and I want the item, I’ll just go ahead and get it.  But that’s not the way some people operate. …

I’m as sick of this weather as anyone.  You can’t ride.  You can’t work outside.  We got drenched when the sky opened up last night during the short jaunt from the train tracks (where we had been stopped for a freight train) and the lot we parked in while taking in the Knights/Zug game at the JLC.  It truly has been the summer that never was. …

I’ve never been much of a boater.  I’ve swallowed a lot of lake water over the years and boating, to me, has either meant speeding on someone’s silly-fast machine with a frightened perma-grin on my face or paddling a canoe a few dozen metres before turning around and paddling it back. I’ve had some experiences that don’t fit either category, but they’ve been few. …

It occurred to me this morning as I was rotating the towels: this is something my partner would never do. It would never even cross his mind. …

I don’t enjoy doing anything involving the maintenance of my vehicle.  I don’t particularly like caring for it or or cleaning it.  I don’t get a sense of pride about it and especially since I’ve owned my own motorcycle, my Xtrail is really just the thing that gets me to and from places.  The best thing about is it that it’s paid for.  …

A 26 year old reporter for Star Magazine was forced to resign last week because she had an affair with “Jon & Kate Plus 8” star Jon Gosselin.  He is perhaps the friendliest unemployed, newly separated father of 8 the world has ever known.  …

I’m sure there are days when I could make the “don’t” page of Glamour magazine with my fashion choices.  I’m sure the What Not To Wear people could have a field day with me sometimes.  In other words, I throw stones knowing full well that I’m imperfect.  But there’s a fashion trend I’m seeing in workplaces that disturbs me on a Gabbana level.  …
