30 Days of Photographs II

In April 2012, 16 unsuspecting bloggers agreed to join Ziva and Michael in a 30 day exercise. We would post a photo every day and honour the theme of that day. Here's my collection, starting with the latest and ending with the earliest. Cause that's just how I am ... Oh, and there is no I. We start with II...

30 Days of Photos III

Again? Yes again. In October 2012 MikeWJ and Ziva cast their magical spell over a bunch of unsuspecting bloggers and enticed them to join in another episode of 30 Days of Insanity... a picture a day for 30 days.

I and my trusty iPhone joined in and clicking on the link will take you to my collection...

30 Days of Photos IV

Okay, okay, by now you're saying "Gee, that Nonamedufus is a masochist. He'll do almost anything and it doesn't even involve money".

And you'd be right. Lord knows how I fall for this every time it comes around. It may have something to do with the ongoing teasing from Ziva about her whip. This time it was September 2013 and just under 20 blogging photographers took part.

My Back Pages - October

Well, folks, I read seven (count 'em) seven books in October. One I didn't finish but even at that I hit the magic number 50 I estimated for myself by the end of the year. The six books I successfully waded through were, firstly, What Happened, Hillary Clinton's book on her bid for the Presidency. I''m a bit of a political junkie so I get off on this stuff but still it kinda struck me as one long whine over losing. Next up was the excellent Canyon of Dreams: The Magic and Music of Laurel Canyon. Laurel Canyon was the fabled area outside of Los Angeles where many musicians and artists lived. Known as a 60s enclave, the book takes a look at just who lived there over the last 80 years. A fascinating read. Next up was Lightfoot, a biography of Canadian folk singer Gordon Lightfoot.

The Polka Dot Door

A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born. That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network. And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard. But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door. And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran. The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993. I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share. The formula was pretty simple. A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains. The show opened as follows...
