I'd like to see things from his point of view but I can't get my head that far up my ass.

What a pussy.

Years ago, I was good friends with Charlyn...we were close...sometime after the youngest of her three children turned 4 or 5, we lost touch...and we've recently found each other again through the internets.

I'm really looking forward to seeing and talking with her again.

Her uncle was Alton Ellis who recently passed away:

I love the food art that Edith Zimmerman does on her blog.

My bags are packed, I'm ready to go...

Recently, I've noticed that a lot of merchants have taken the lead of many supermarkets, and now charge .05 for a plastic bag. Not only does this give them the opportunity to help the environment, but also rewards them for doing so by letting them make money off of the bags they do sell.

I think this is a good thing.
But, then...I've been using cloth bags for a long time now, and while it was hard to remember to bring them with me into the store in the beginning, it's not a problem now.

That's why what I witnessed yesterday morning in a local shop shocked me.
A woman was cussing this poor guy behind the counter off because he was charging her for a bag. She was an older woman, so hearing her cuss like a soused sailor over a plastic bag seemed just wrong somehow. That's not how granny's supposed to behave!

The man behind the counter just stood there quietly, not saying a word while she called him all kinds of names...(including the politically incorrect names that she wouldn't like to be called). She snatched her purchases off of the counter (ironically, all Canada Day celebration items)..and cussed all the way out of the store.

I walked by the counter and told the man how impressed I was with how he kept his temper. He didn't say anything.

Just smiled.

When I got to the counter with my items, he tilted and lowered his head, looked up, smiled and asked sheepishly: "Would you like a bag?"...

Economic Development Minister Sandra Pupatello, of Windsor, says people in her city seem to be coping better with their 10-week-old garbage strike.

In an off-the-cuff remark, she jokingly referred to Toronto residents as "babies."

Windsor isn't even the size of Scarborough...so maybe Sandra should just STFU....seeing as Windsors' population is 8.3% of Metro Toronto's.

The number of strikers in Toronto might outnumber their entire population.

When I look back at what I cried about at 19....thinking about it now, it's laughable.

I love a girl with a sense of humour about her own troubles:

College Dorm Light Show

The relationship between the 72-year-old actor with step-granddaughter E'Dena Hines, 27, began when she was a teen, the source told The ENQUIRER exclusively. The alleged affair not only contributed to his split from Myrna, his wife of 25 years, it also led to his breakup with his longtime mistress, former schoolteacher Mary Joyce Hays.

I think even Woody Allen would say "Oh, c'mon!"
Step-Granddaughter? Long time mistress?
Honestly, I'm so disappointed I could slap him.
