22:53 Fragments »Erin's Pub
There was a busker in the Finch subway this past week playing acoustic guitar. Hardly remarkable, except that he was playing one of those brightly coloured, large-keyed child keyboards with his feet. The patches of piano playing were perfectly and intuitively timed as accented accompaniments to the song, quite outside of the melody, and gave so much more to the texture of the music. I only had two dollars change, but I would gladly have given more. I wish I could remember which song it was -- an older one, possibly Motown but then, I cannot remember so clearly. My commute is a blur on the better days. I'm surprised that I remember this much. The thing with city living is that there are too many remarkable things in my environment, and no time to record it all.

Nothing excites me like discovering new music, especially new music from an old favourite. Listen to "Isolation" by John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band.

I can't talk about it, so I won't. Directly... my heart has been drawn to the northwest passage of late, towards an unknown destination.

20:50 MacKay misses announcement (285 Words) »PEIInfo.ca
So our federal officials are taking an airplane to travel 2 hours away? What a waste of tax payers money.

Do they fly from one side of Toronto to the other too?

MacKay misses announcement
TERESA WRIGHT
The Guardian

Peter MacKay wasn't on hand to cut the ribbon, nevertheless the Canada Games facilities planned for Charlottetown are well underway and are in full construction mode thanks to funding from various levels of government and UPEI.

Despite clear, sunny blue skies on Saturday afternoon, MacKay, the federal minister responsible for the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agnecy (ACOA) wasn't able to make it to P.E.I. for the official announcement of federal dollars earmarked for the games. MacKay was stuck in Nova Scotia due to technical difficulties with his chartered airplane.

This brought some measure of disappointment to the crowd of politicians and athletes present for the funding announcement. The group had gathered Saturday in the parking lot at UPEI in Charlottetown under a beating 26 degree sun.

"I'm not sure whether his plane really did have a flat tire or whether he's just a lot smarter than the rest of us and he's sitting by the pool or on a golf course," Premier Robert Ghiz joked to the audience before his official address.

The press conference went on as scheduled, however, with ACOA vice president Pat Dorsey pinch-hitting for MacKay.

"(MacKay) was to be here this afternoon, I can assure you Premier he's not on the golf course or beside a pool," Dorsey told the crowd.

"He was on a plane in Trenton, Nova Scotia, tried to take off twice, but because of mechanical difficulties could not be here."

12:46 Resources to Share »Marketing Maven (Moe Kerr)

I'm big on sharing and am happy to have something today that a client shared with me that I looked into and decided that it was good stuff.

 If you're interested in learning more about marketing and how to do anything business related by yourself, check out this resource from a gentleman named Brad Sugars.  A prospective client who hails from Australia shared his name with me and recommended I visit his site.  And so I am passing it along! 

The e-books on the site are easily down-loadable, cover a wide array of topics and offer great fundamental marketing and business basic how-to's.  Enjoy.
