Can’t you just smell the testosterone?Taken July 8, 2009 with Kodak DX7440 It wasn’t until we were all at the supper table that I discovered I’d been had.My father had a quirky sense of humour. More than anything, at least it seemed to me as a child, he liked to get one over on [...]

Will My Dad Find Out?Taken August 9, 2008 with Canon PowerShot A550 Even though the evidence was found under my bed… with the date of the crime etched on the label… “Wasn’t me.”Of course, my Dad found out. He always found out everything I was up to, and he always gave me a [...]

You Want Fries with that Burger…?

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008
Ain’t I Angelic… “looking”? You may not be aware, unless you’ve dropped a hamburger patty into the sand, that sand does not scrape off a hamburger patty. Completely. Ah, yes, appearances can be deceiving, though, can’t they? The dog knows differently, you can tell by the look on her face. This picture was taken [...]

Meet the REAL King of Terabithia

Tuesday, March 6th, 2007
His name is Mike Valley. His favourite song is a toss-up between “Beth” by Kiss, and “My Ding-a-Ling”, by Chuck Berry. “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” runs a close second. He sang Karaoke before it was invented. He owns a rock polisher and eats Caramel Spread® sandwiches, and he’s the best sword-fighter in [...]

Ky and I went to see the movie, “Bridge to Terabithia” tonight. I don’t know why I never read the book – until Kyla mentioned a school assignment about it (she’s already read it twice), I had never even heard of it. I’m so ashamed of myself. [MORE]
