Movie Night

I went to the Revue Cinema to attend Mobifest, an annual competition of made-for-mobile movies.  Neat concept, my crap attention span liked the shortness of each, and I’m kicking myself for not entering.


Above is the brochure they give you at the door.  A giant “come on” escaped me when I read the bios on the judges… Johnny is the CBC guy who discovered me!  The guy is _everywhere_.november 19 2008

Oh SNAP!

I finally pulled the trigger and joined the rest of the world and got… a smartphone.  Behold my new Bold.


That’s Sandra at the Rogers in ‘The PATH’, King and Bay Street, and she’s awesome.

Every month I take my cel bill to her which she re-adjusts and makes smaller.  And it’s quite difficult to trip her up, I’ve only been able to once… “well, Keri, you finally got me”, to which I lit up and punched her on the shoulder.november 18 2008

For the Past Three Days…

… I’ve been working at  ‘The Royal Winter Agricultural Fair‘ or, ‘The Royal’, at Exhibition Place.  This is its 86th year, 350 000 people visit over 2 weeks, and it’s the largest indoor agricultural fair and international equestrian competition in the world.

Sunday I was a “roamer”, meaning I walked around keeping an eye out.  I passed a little kid at one point, who looked up at me and breathed out in awe, “ohhh, security”.  Yesssss.  Here are some things I saw:november 18 2008


From left to right:

  • neat painting, eh?  It won an award, but I forgot to write down the artist.  Email me if you know them
  • weighing in at 77.8lbs, this is the new ‘Guinness Book of World Records’ biggest-ever Rutabaga! Congratulations, Norman Lee Craven from Cannington, Ontario!
  • this sculpture is made entirely of butter.  HOW did they transport that?
  • I am very sick

Then Monday and Tuesday I was guarding a set of doors while the exhibitors dismantled and shipped off.  Pretty quiet post so I was able to finish my latest book, “PSI Spies“.  I already believed before I read it, now, even more so.  And there’s a “central premonition registry” out there?  I’m joining.

I was stationed outside Alan Jackson‘s dressing room.  That’s the view from my chair, top left.  Guess that explains why I never saw the guy; he stayed on his $3 million dollar bus until show time.  I did meet some other band members though:

Them: Why are you sitting here?november 14 2008
Me: [completely straight-faced] I’m here to keep Alan safe.

Top right is my view of the stage.  You can’t really see him, but Trace Adkins‘ lead guitar player Brian Wooten is up there.  He gave me his guitar pick after his set and told me I “was his inspiration for the night”.

Then someone else gave me a “Local Crew” t-shirt but the thing is a tent on me.  Want it? Email me and tell me why and whomever has the best answer I’ll ship it to you.
