Hey Dufus! Another funny old week, it seems. But good news: you're not American. Roth

Things aren't much better in Canada, this week, Indigo. Can't seem to trust politicians on any level - municipal, provincial or federal.

I LOLed, literally, at the first Michele Bachmann one. Off to have my moment of silence...after I listen to more Johnny Cash (listening to American Recordings right now).

I take it she was Sarah Palin's political sister? As in a wacko? I have all the American Recordings volumes. Great collection. Must say I never heard of the Cash album you were talking about on Facebook. I'm always learning something new from you.

We had it on 33 1/3 (remember that? :) when I was a kid. Some truly awful stuff my parents had too in their collection, but this was one of the gems, along with Hank Williams and Frank Sinatra.

Remember that? I've still got a lot of LPs in the basement but I'm too lazy to listen to them. You have to get up every 15 minutes to flip them over. When I listen to CDs I plop five in the changer and the music lasts half a day.

I think Duffy and Ford are like the gruesome twosome. They should both resign.

My Back Pages - October

Well, folks, I read seven (count 'em) seven books in October. One I didn't finish but even at that I hit the magic number 50 I estimated for myself by the end of the year. The six books I successfully waded through were, firstly, What Happened, Hillary Clinton's book on her bid for the Presidency. I''m a bit of a political junkie so I get off on this stuff but still it kinda struck me as one long whine over losing. Next up was the excellent Canyon of Dreams: The Magic and Music of Laurel Canyon. Laurel Canyon was the fabled area outside of Los Angeles where many musicians and artists lived. Known as a 60s enclave, the book takes a look at just who lived there over the last 80 years. A fascinating read. Next up was Lightfoot, a biography of Canadian folk singer Gordon Lightfoot. He may have been responsible for some iconic folk songs but he was also quite the womanizer and boozer. Enough said. Then I read Dan Brown's new tome Origin, the fifth ...

The Polka Dot Door

A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born.  That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network.  And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.  But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door.  And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran.  The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993.  I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share.  The formula was pretty simple.  A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains.  The show opened as follows... Imagination Day!  Oh boy! ...
