Laughter and joy - the best way to remember.



Actually been thinking about 9/11 a lot today. Historic days do tend to stick out in the mind. It is difficult to find joy or laughter in that kind of terror, but Ab Fab did it well. Love and respect and God Bless America

The Summer brought to you by Instagram

I haven't done any photo posts this summer, which is a shame. So I thought I'd get do a tribute to the summer of 2011. Hereby this summer shall be known as - The Return to Toronto.
Since I have been away the last two summers, and haven't been able to garden, I wanted to get an early start. Perhaps to early, since this shot is from April. Nothing in the above images survived.

The true start to summer - helping Emily move May 1st!


Sharon Jones at the Sound Academy

Here we go!

Took my first business trip to...

Kearney, Mo. YEA! Look a real water pump.

Got to see the Jays beat KC, while in town. Great stadium BTW.

Best BBQ ever

Heaven.



Nights out with friends and communists.

Saw this hooker. Hi Paul!



Learned how to play corn hole.

Miracle of miracles, strawberries on the balcony.



Justy and I went to the free Sarah Harmer concert on the island.

Marsha! Thanks for being my surrogate Mum.

Great to see the old 'hood's still got it.

More great dinners with Justin.

Dear Sister at the Piston.

Flowers everywhere


What kind of summer in Toronto would it be without a trip to the CNE

Ain't she a beauty.

Ferris Wheel sunset.

Bit late on the summer puzzle, but if I finish it by Monday, I'll still be on track! All in all it's been amazing! See ya in the fall

Top 5 - Good Bad Songs

I was talking to Paul yesterday and we were laughing about all of our favourite bad songs. I got to thinking that it would be a shame not to share them with all of you!

So here we go:

Number 5

Evacuate the Dance Floor by Cascade


Stop the beat is killing me...

Number 4

Yankin' by Lady


Especially beloved for the I-N-' (apostrophe) in the title.

Number 3

Tik Tok by Ke$ha


The patriotic hipster is my favourite part of Ke$sha's first video, elevating this otherwise average, good, bad song to the top 5. And who doesn't want to wake up feeling like P Diddy

Number 2

Bad Chick by Webbie and Trina


Love that they utilize the omnipresent empty mansion. An important rap staple

And
the
NUMBER 1
Good Bad Song is....


Gimme More By Britney - OBVIOUSLY


You might disagree with 5-2 but there is no way anyone can deny that Gimme More is THE number 1 "Good Bad Song"

Feel free to disagree in the comments (Paul.)
