Cornwall Ontario – The very great Myles Goodwin penned the lyrics to Rock & Roll is a Vicious Game. For Alison Hudson it appears to have become true in Cornwall Ontario.

Toronto Ontario – Two of the greatest things about Toronto are its nightlife and its people. Rain or shine, weekend or weekday- there is always something to do or somewhere to go. Last Friday night I went out with my friends V and Rhi to a bar called Sneaky Dee’s for emo night, which is every […]

This was my third attempt to go see Rise Against, due to timing and other setbacks in the past until now, I had never […]
TORONTO ONTARIO – Toronto is a crowded place with millions of people coming and leaving the city every day, everybody is always in a rush to get somewhere here. I used to joke that I was a chickadee surrounded by millions of sparrows stuck inside a large, concrete bird cage. Mind you I was […]

I love that image that an area photog did of moi. He meant it badly, mostly because he’s kinda young and probably never understood or watched Citizen Kane. He’s an example of a young person in Cornwall, with some talent, who sold his soul to get the love from a ever shrinking clique. […]

CFN – I love listening to Q with host Jian Ghomeshi. I have had a long time love affair with CBC radio since I worked in the Arctic when I was young. There’s something about CBC radio that has always been special which is why I’m personally saddened yet at the same time pulling up […]
CFN– Why would anyone working in the public shoot nudie photos and complain if they get leaked in 2014? Yes, it’s an invasion of privacy and yes it can be brutal in some ways; but it also is a sport for hackers who the harder it is to gain access, the bigger the rush and […]
CORNWALL Ontario – I was at the Port theatre last night. It’s an original Roxy theatre that has struggled mightily to survive as it approaches its 75th anniversary. They are still fund raising to add digital projection; but since the Sylvain family have bought it have cleaned it up and essentially saved it. Larry […]
