The thing is, when you utilize “artistic license” on a regular basis, sometimes it comes back to bite you in the s.

Take, or example, my exaggeration of late regarding the weather. It is after all, WINTER in Canada, a time when even polar bears and ice cubes wear long underwear. Yet I chose for several days to make things out to be worse than what they were. So what happened? They got worse. With the wind chill today, it is -175° Celsius. Or thereabouts.

Also, we have had three bad snowstorms this year so far, of which Mrs. That Dan Guy and I have been caught out in every one. Not caught, like say…Tiger Woods, but caught nonetheless. One night it took us two and a half hours to get back home!

Another night, due to obligations, we had to drive OUT into the storm, and then come back home hours later, with barely a sliver of warmth with which to grab our Starbucks securely! I’m telling you people – this is BAD!!

So, maybe I’ll quit exaggerating. Or maybe I’ll just exaggerate about things we want to have happen – like a week-long Celine Dion Christmas music TV special.

Chow for now!!
