:: Time’s 50 Coolest Websites 2005.
:: Interesting article from The Guardian Unlimited, called Riddle of the Bands, in which the question is asked: “Is there any point trying to get meaning from the wishy-washy lyrics of bands such as Coldplay, Keane and Snow Patrol? Or have musicians just run out of things to say?”
:: First, thanks to everyone who wished me a Happy Birthday via e-mail, comment, phone, card, etc. Much appreciated, thank you kindly. Today I begin a few days off from work, returning on July 12th. I’ll be in Winnipeg late tomorrow night. Posts may be few and far between. Enjoy the summer…
:: Haven’t posted much lately, been too busy with work and other activities. I am flying to Winnipeg on July 1 for a 9-day visit. My house remains a disaster area, with boxes and assorted materials, curios, doodads, books, CDs, papers and other junk laying about, the aftermath of the continuing, no-end-in-sight home renovation project.
I am hoping to switch over to WordPress sometime soon.

:: I’ve been in Calgary since Wed night, attending the CLA Conference. Today, the weather turned cool and rainy again, as it was about a week earlier, when I was in Toronto in the sweltering heat, humidity and smog. It was drizzling all day, eventually evolving into a two-hour torrential downpour, while I was attending a party this evening in a large tent at the Canada Olympic Park. A number of flood watches are in effect for southern Alberta and regions around Calgary.
The conference is I do not attend generally, but I enjoyed it a lot, including the panel on which I was a participant.
