Big wind storm last night. Gusts up to 100 kilometres an hour! That’s almost as fast as an Olympic sprinter on steroids!!

Speaking of steroids, I saw a news scroll on TV this morning, suggesting that R & B singer Mary J. Blige is being investigated for steroid use. How exactly is that a problem? Will she have an unfair vocal range advantage over other singers, or will it just enable her to beat Britney Spears to the next Dr. Phil session?

Inquiring minds…

Hey, how often do YOU hear phrases like:


“That bloody chicken!”

Or:

“Keep that goddam chicken out of my bed!!”

We live with two rubber chickens, both being far cheaper to maintain than kids or real animals. However, the latest addition to the Such Is Life household (Cornelius) is…um…inquisitive, I guess I would say. He turns up in the strangest places.

I think we’ve actually started to play Chicken Tag, where we will both cautiously open doors and lift covers, to see if he may be hiding there. Whoever finds him is then “it”.

Yes, we lead a sad and pathetic life, here in the Such Is Life household…

Chow for now!!
