A grenade thrown into a kitchen in France would result in Linoleum Blownapart.
-----------
Linoleum Blownapart.....get it? Its a play on words....Napoleon Bonaparte.....get it?....sheesh.
Today started out beautiful but this afternoon has quickly turned to thunderstorms. Boom, Crack, crack, boom there is nothing like a prairie thunderstorm but sure its all fun and games until you get struck by lightning! They had tornado in Brandon the other day. Not to be too alarmist but I think that the world is coming to an end. It was prophesized in the song by the immortal Pozo Seco singers in their 1957 hit song:
"Cargando su pinole, llegó a donde el viejo que contemplaba el fuego." Loosely translated it means the little nightingale lies wounded in the ditch while it rains all over the world...and like the world is coming to an end....ole.
Well I have to go over to return some movies. Last night we saw "Mystic River"...two thumbs up especially for Tim Robbins and Sean Penn. It was an excellant story too...10 all around! We also saw "The Secret Lives of Dentists", an arty film of two married dentists that endure the hardship of sickness and infidelity in their family...it was like almost real in its approach to life...hey it was life! Put it this way the movie strives to reach the lofty heights of mediocrity. Not recommended unless you don't have a life and want to watch theirs!...or you like the sound of the dentist drill! oooohno
I have to run over and get a bottle of wine for a prize at the Solstice Party. We...er, read Catherine have written up a few dozen questions for a Trivial Pursuit game that we will run on Saturday at the party. We are also going to a peace march on Saturday at noon that starts at the Ledge and goes???? somewhere. But that will finish in time to get to the Solstice party by 5:00 PM. I was talking to Margot, who called me on my birthday, and she reminisced about going with us to peace marches when she was young. We took her in her stroller when she was too young and she walked when she was older. You know I think she picked up something from that. I think she learned to care for other people and to speak out for what is right.
Catherine is teaching today but she is off tomorrow. But today we will go over to the Reh-fit Centre. We usually go on Fridays but we are busy and you have to fit it in when you can!
Later...keep on blogging.
