| Introduction | In this life, I pimp (not much of an exaggeration) for probably the world's largest collection of Lord of the Rings junk. I drive my beloved little yellow Smart Car cabrio, and play my music really loudly. I go to every Great Big Sea concert I can possibly get to, be it in Canada, or New England, no trip is too far. Any spare time goes towards scratching dog bellies or pacifying noisy birds, piggy, and/or my kids, who are (gasp!) pretty cool. But in my next life I want to come back as either a Hobbit, or Jeremy Clarkson (although James May runs a close second) or else a Hobbit with a really fast pony, which corners really well, and has lots of brake horsepower, and has fun little paddles on the steering wheel, errr, reins. What could POSSIBLY go wrong? And my next life would include tickets every Great Big Sea concert, which is the most fun anyone could possibly have (outside of Dunsfield Aerodrome, of course). Put your hands in the air! Vertical motion! |
