smiling at you


I loaned out my copy of "How To Be A Canadian" which is certainly, one of The Funniest Books Ever Written. Unless you are not Canadian. Then you may not see the humour at all. But if you are not Canadian ... well, that's kind of a shame anyway, isn't it?

I kid.

Don't be offended. I'll have to apologize. (Which of course is a highly developed skill of all Canadians. I'm sorry about that.)

Spike is spending Canada Day, once again, in the Nation Below Us. They're all hyped up down there over a date on the calendar ... something about the 3rd or 5th of 18th of July, I'm not sure. (Sorry.) I will text him later in the day (musicians on the road don't have a huge appreciation for early morning texts) and remind him of the nation to which he truly belongs.

Smiling in your direction today and wishing you - in whatever country you are - a Happy Canada Day!
