A “Wild” Week.
(with video)

Come Fly With Me
I couldn’t help but hear “Ol’ Blue Eyes” crooning that number in my head, yesterday.

I miss Camp, already.
Last night I returned home from a week at Camp McDougall . I really did not want to come home, and I am already missing Camp.

Adverts, or Adverse?
I've discussed tv commercials in previous columns. Usually I see humour in ads that are intended to be funny. I recognize that many ads are intended to be light-hearted. But not all ads are successful.

The things you see!
Being a driving instructor, I spend a lot of time driving around the city; both driving between appointments and with students.
