I just like saying that, “my business manager”.  So does Jody, she emails it all the time.  I took my chickenscratched, stickynoted printouts and my little black book that I put my most excellent ideas into using my best printing.

Couple weeks ago I’d texted him all hyper, “OMG I’m #1 on Google for “Canadian Explorer” in BOTH Canada and USA.”  And tonight maybe the funniest thing he said was this: 

“You know what I almost did Keri?  Bought TCE.info and .biz then used them to outrank you.  Except I didn’t want to invest that much time in making you cry”.  I know, I jacknifed too.

I really wanted to go to this one bar and did and look:

Totally empty, just us and the DJ.  I asked him to play Britney and got back a brand new song with her and Little Wayne, it’s good.

It woulda been an excellent little video but, get this, I don’t really have a camera.  My Flip’s audio no longer works, my big camera is breaking down and my BB keeps reseting itself: I’m a girl with an internet show and no camera.  That’s getting solved tomorrow. 

On the 401 again, aka my 2nd home.  Bit bored.  Here’s another photo.

It was the Stratford Heritage Festival this weekend in ‘Canada’s Premier Art Town’.  There was a giant old car show in the town square, that’s where I met Bruce:

That’s his 1942 Willys Overland MB, 1/3000 custom ordered by the CDN Government in November 1941.  The C stands for Canada and the M denotes a 500 weight car.  And that flag is of the 2nd CDN core of service that commanded troops in North Western Europe.

It went overseas and did stuff, came back and was found by Bruce’s dad rotten in a field. He fixed it up, passed it onto his son and now it’s beautiful, I kidded him about no dust even in the corners.  Good story eh? 

Off with @MotionBlur to Stratford, Ontario, where the swan is the official symbol and each year 26 of them are put in the Avon river, 2 of which are black.

William Shatner is from here, I saw Peter Mansbridge’s house (looks inviting) and the building Chris and I are standing in front of is a factory from back in 1865-ish where Thomas Edison had his first telegraphy job.

Here’s a Twitvid from Chris coming into the city, and yes everything is predictably Shakespeare-themed, and I wondered if the people that lived here got turned off of the guy because of it.  

But actually it worked out because on the way back past the line I refused to wait for three hours in I learned they’d just shut down the exhibit, over.  So my decision to instead go paw things on Canada’s richest street was a good one.  

Then when I gave the guy my change he held up an envelope stuffed with cranes, told me to pick one, I got that poem there on my fridge, title, ‘Patience’.  I know.

My favourite line is, “put spending time under review…..”.  If you see the guy, he hangs around Avenue and Bloor, say hi for me and also get a poem for yourself.
