Just wanted to recommend to all the book : \[The Last Canadian\] by William C. Heine.

I've read and re-read it many times; it's one of my absolute favourites and thought others might enjoy it.

Be aware, if you are interested in reading it, the Canadian version has been out-of-print since the mid-80s and is very expensive.

It was released in the USA under the title \[Death Wind\] and can be purchased for NEW for $20 or used for much less.

Just letting the mods know, new banner on mobile has five bodies without heads showing up...

What do YOU think, Parker, or Lambert or Kane in Alien?

What about Aliens? Frost, Drake, Hudson, Apone, Ferro?

My thoughts - Lambert for Alien, and it's almost a tie between Drake/Ferro...

The Edmonton Elks want to hear all the cheers, applause, and barks this weekend.

The Elks are in action against the BC Lions at Commonwealth Stadium Friday night, and it’s one that dog lovers will not want to miss.

Themed as “Dog Days of Summer,” fans are encouraged to bring their dogs to the stadium. It is the first time the organization has allowed fans to bring dogs to a football game.

Advocates and community leaders in Lloydminster — a city that straddles the Alberta-Saskatchewan boundary — are calling for the release of a report into the state of health care in the city, information they say is essential to address current service level gaps and to plan for future growth.

On June 25, the Saskatchewan government released a four-page summary of the full assessment on its website, citing findings that health-care capacity within the region is in comparatively good shape.

I bloody hate these environmental controls that shut down the trucks when we're trying to sleep, say during the days or hot nights.

Sleeping inside a big metal box just makes us cook and makes for a very poor sleep pattern.

Is there a general one that works for all, or is all specific related?

The Lake Tahoe mansion of one of The Beach Boys’ original members is on the market for $43 million.

There’s a good chance that no one would have given a second glance to The Beach Boys without Brian Wilson.

​

He was the resident genius of the group on every single record they made, and even if they didn’t have the most thoughtful lyrics on every one of their songs, it didn’t matter when the melody was enough to break anyone’s heart on tunes like ‘California Girls’.

​

Every single melody that he wrote seemed to be touched by some musical god, but Wilson was also the first to say when the band was making a mockery of the kind of music that they had started with.

Music, and art in general, is a landscape littered with towering monuments built on the foundation of hyperbole. The very nature of sonic construction ensures that every listener has a personal connection to the architecture at hand.

​

It’s, therefore, a place in which outlandish statements can be attributed to artists who have barely laid a brick. Few songwriters deserve the title of underrated genius, but Brian Wilson surely does.
