He was wearing a black hoodie that said “DO NOT BE AFRAID” across the front, “HATE” in black makeup across his face. He was reciting something from that sheet of paper in his hand.
I love this town.

“Would you look at that? The algae just flew up my nose!”
I’m in yer waterz… bloomin’ up the algae with ma fertilizer…
(sorry; couldn’t resist)
For a winsome flashback to NYC in the 80s, madamerouge recommends Party Monster. Favourite line (Seth Green’s character): “Would you look at that? The coke just flew up my nose!”
anyez: the locals told me it was those darned Minnesota farmers in the boundary waters, usin’ too much fertilizer
ZOMG I used to be a local from nwOnt. “Hi, Pot? This is Kettle. You’re black.” [click]
You should totally blog about it. I mean, hello! “PLEASE NOTE: Revolvers and pistols are prohibited in Ontario.”
DB: Thanks, I miss the Joe. Anything cute and furry is necter for the ahhh-gene.
Have the 18 year old whippet with me out here, and though he really misses her too, he loves it here, like another puppy-hood with a little less peeing…
Madame: I’ve never heard of the algae. I’m on Crow Lake which is apparently crystal clear. Damn. I think the locals are in total denial of telling you this stuff…
http://www.blackbearfishing.com (That’s the place I’m staying…except for the machismo, the blood sports, and worse–the fuckin’ price of chocolate! it is beautiful)
After years in Toronto, I’m a little cultured shock…maybe I should blog?
Madame, I’ve wanted to, but it slipped through the crackz. Do you recommend?
I must’ve seen the same pair, Furry. It was at College & Bay.
Anyez: I was on LOTW two years ago, and the algae bloom was so bad the boat’s wake was green. (Think wheat grass juice.) I hope it wasn’t as bad in 2006.
Dead: did you ever see Party Monster?
Sorry to hear about your Joe. Glad to see you around again.
I’ll do a Caturday post soon!
Scaling mountains of change. I’m a Mer-Goat, extra hoof-style.
(and living the summer in Lake of the Woods, as a local told me yesterday: “honey, dontcha know, Nestor Falls is the redneck capital of Canada…” Harleys, and everything… Hope I shit that novel out this summer, is all I can say. Always read you darlings though. More Mr. Hamilton, pleeze, my Joe passed away…oh crap, tears, I better go hug a rock.)
Where the hell have you been, Missy?
I’ve been watching these black and white angels about once a day, just to renew my faith in something gentle and okay:
The Orange Kitty! I met this guy last summer at PRIDE. The cat was following him all around the booths, sometimes on his shoulder, sometimes walking, but never too far from his human. Me, having been told that my soul is feline, could not resist meeting and playing with the cat. I was informed that the cat just appeared one day in his daily routine and has been his every since. He loves to be outside and goes wherever the owner goes. Folks that bond with animals are blessed!
I think you should send the picture to http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com/

The freaks arent on the street in suburban Chicago
Toronto is much more fun than Chicago is.
Last week, I saw a man riding a bicycle on the College Street sidewalk. An orange tabby cat was riding on his shoulders, like it was the most normal thing in the world for a cat to do.
I couldn’t get to my camera in time.
Priceless.
LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!
