In a stunning display of my capacity to go to hell with the joke, I went to Truro yesterday afternoon to see Matt Mays and Adam Baldwin at a theatre called the Marigold Cultural Centre. (According to the Web site, the centre is named for a fictional ship called the EES Marigold , which was featured in a long-running series of columns in the local paper. Sounds kinda Stephen Leacock to me, ...
Okay, a while back I mentioned that I might have written some fanfic, after years of not going near the stuff? Well, a few days ago I might also have set up a journal for it, so as to not clutter this one. It's at coneycat_fic , should anyone find themselves interested. Right now there are three Emergency! stories and three Flashpoint ones. Now that I've made the announcement I ...

Also, I think he's simply a brown classic tabby but he looks so darned exotic I'm a little afraid he's something a little more fabulous, so to be on the safe side I'll put up a few "found cat" ads on the Internet at least. He's probably just a sad case of a dumped cat, but you never know. Anyway, as...
Article from the Metro News on gay people in Canada's military. Apparently tomorrow will mark the 17th anniversary since the Supreme Court ruled that "barring homosexuals from military service violated the Charter of Rights and Freedoms in a landmark verdict that prompted more openly gay men and women to join the ranks of the Army, Air Force and Navy." The article quotes a number of people ...

I have no idea why, but the first round of Gemini Awards were given over the past couple of days even though the main broadcast isn't for another couple of weeks. I mention this because Flashpoint won three of the awards it was up for: a technical one for main title sequence as well as two for guests stars: Best Guest Performance Actor in a Dramatic Series: Henry Czerny, First In Line...
Regarding the screenwriters/novelists who will not read my effing stuff? I've been looking back at the blog entries I've linked to , and I keep finding comments posted to the effect of: "Publishing (or whatever) is a tough business. We need every edge we can get." Yes, true, but both those writers make it pretty clear they are in no position to open doors even if they wanted to. "So...
