When I Win The Lottery

Wednesday, June 30th, 2004

I was at my favourite coffee haunt today and noticed that the Sony Style catalog had arrived with one of today’s newspapers. I picked it up - choosing it as my reading material over either the Star or the Sun - and began to thumb through.

We all know men and women are aroused differently. Or at least that’s what the types like John Gray have been telling us in their books for so many years.

A Notice To The Dogs Of Political War

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2004

I just had a political “telesoliciter” call me. She represented the blue liars. She asked if I’d made my decision about next Monday’s federal election and when I said no, she proceeded to tell me every bad thing Paul Martin has ever done.
Last week the red liars called. The conversation could have […]
