Our unanimously beloved Prime Minister was not beheaded by terrorists while I was away, so take a deep breath and ponder this Harper with Kitties photo-op that I stole from the CBC site.
Vladimir Putin could probably pull it off a bit more convincingly, but this just leaves me totally disoriented. The obvious kitten-eating jokes aside, is anyone else puzzled?
No more posts from me either, I'm off to a cottage, and our hostess has promised that I'll be transported around the lake on a paddleboat ...just like Cleopatra.
In exchange, I had to promise that there would be no drama.
of any kind.
If joester refuses take over this site and bring his newly acquired California calm to this city (and continue the good work of destroying Sally's art blog credibility), then spend your fear-filled, yet lazy, Toronto summer days reading all the archives of email from NOLA (lots of post-apocalyptic fix-it tips), take a ride on the ADD rollercoaster at Tangerines in a Red Net Bag, or behave yourself and stay on topic dammit! at simpleposie's new location.

I'm going away again now for a few days. This time it should be less challenging leisure. One leg on the journey will be a double hit of art openings in London Ontario on Friday night. M. Jean, who will be familiar to readers of this blog, has curated a show of paintings and drawings by James Reaney at the Landon Library. And our very dear Mr. Nobody has a show opening that same night at Forest City Gallery. If there was ever a time to visit London Ontario this is it. Of course being out of town means we will miss two cool projects by Sarah Peebles. If you are in Toronto, you might want to check out Four Lines on Thursday and 108 - Walking Through Tokyo (with Christie Pearson) on Saturday.
I wrote an essay on authority for Rocket Science. I'm looking forward to their first issue!
Jeffrey Wetson says, "I started painting rafting scenes because my brother is a guide on the Middle Fork of the Salmon and he wanted a label design for his winery."
Larry Willcutt says, "My interest in subjects varies greatly, however I seem to paint more boat pictures than anything else."
Francis Hopkins "almost certainly was the person who designed the first Stars and Stripes."
Wilderness Tours is a pretty slick outfit and none of us died. We were there just a tad too early for Canadian Forces Week.
