Please Mister Please - Olivia Newton John

I have, I think, but not sure which one just now. So yeah, I would.

WYE buy an album based solely on the artist without hearing any of it first?

Round here tends to be the former but being the Anglophile I am, I like the latter.

DVD or streaming?

Also maybe this is weird but I don't like to listen to him if him's doing a duet with someone cause when I say I want to listen to Tommy, I really, really mean it.

But "Stop Dragging My Heart Around" with Stevie Nicks is soooooooooooooooo good. Probably the first Petty I liked back in the day.

And then she said Bob Dylan's voice sounds like Burgess Meredith as the Penguin in Batman

You realize that I will now not be able to unhear this, right? 😜

And I think she might be right for some periods of Bob's career. His voice has changed with time, though.

So Aaron Taylor-Johnson has been the latest object of speculation, though he denies that things are as far along as rumours suggested. They basically had him with contract in hand ready to sign. Seems like a good choice, though, if it happens. 33, good looking, already done some action and franchise work. Former 007s George Lazenby and Pierce Brosnan have both endorsed him.

Long before I ever heard of Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish and their amazing writer Tuomas Holopainen, my favourite Finnish composer was Jean Sibelius. Finlandia is probably his best known piece.

Die Another Day

Loris

Truly, we must find happiness.

Bush - Bust

Never. Probably put me off them more than attract me.

WYE write a story where the main character's arc was totally not reflective of your values?

Never Tear Us Apart - INXS

McD's if I must but not fond of either. However, I hate BK. Can't even remember why now. Harvey's are my favourite fast food burgers.

Ketchup or gravy on fries?

Coffee time!!!

Oh the hey, it's always coffee time in a cafe, eh.

Got some Deathwish Dark roast in the coffee pot. Teas du jour are Earl Grey and Scottish Breakfast. Fresh lemonade and iced tea are in the fridge. Stocks of hot chocolate and other teas are looking good, as are the marshmallows and sundry condiments.

Getting a chance to write during the week is tricky so not much progress on my new stories. One needs some serious changes to make my planned direction make sense. Just not sure what exactly those changes need to be. It's mostly about avoiding the problem of the "big revelation" being a total deus ex machina. The other is just chugging along and I kind of have the direction worked out, though some tweaking might be in order since I've changed the future direction of things.

Him's the only true heartbreaker, so why was it Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers?

He wanted company on the tour bus? 😊

Blazing Saddles

Last Ride Of The Day - sticking with Nightwish

Cask - Bask

I was shot down in Sudbury when I asked the museum tour guide out. But she was really nice about it!

Yeah, those Northern Ontarians can be pretty nice folks, actually. Never been there myself but my employer has an office there (a company we acquired pre-pandemic) so maybe I can come up with an excuse someday.

Good day! Hi, Elyse. The world needs more Petty, even if he was a ... bad dum ... Heartbreaker.

Coffee is brewing. Went with Tobermory Grotto for today. Teas are Assam and Russian Caravan. Everything else seems well-stocked and ready.

Here's an interesting performance of "The Waiting". Grunge meets 70s rock. Eddie is my second favourite of the Seattle grunge crowd after the late Chris Cornell.

With response times of a few days to a couple weeks, the pubs here from a variety of formats and genres will let you know soon if they are interested. Many, not surprisingly, specialize in poetry and flash which are shorter and take less time to review. See if there's anything of use to you.

Oo. Fries are more filling but onion rings taste better (at least if done right). Guess I'll take onion rings since I have not had them in a while.

With a beef burger or with chicken?

Mash - Cash

Four-day work week! Yay!

OTOH, this long weekend sees the biggest upgrade of our core corporate system that we've done in probably the last 6 or so years. I'm not the guy doing it anymore and the guy who is makes miracles happen (kind of the IT version of Scotty but without the accent) but still, a lot is riding on this project.

"She canna take it, boss. Any more and she'll blow!" is not what I want to hear on Easter Sunday, let's put it that way.

It's evening here so I'll put on some camomile and Canadian blueberry herbal teas. Suitable for bedtime drinking.

In what Canadian city did I ask a girl out and get shot down?

Somewhere in Quebec and your French pickup lines didn't pass muster? 🤣

Over there lies our home.

I tend to not show myself online (except LinkedIn and I have largely left that site now) so likely not, though I keep meditating on the possibilities of vlogging or doing reaction videos or something so never say never.

WYE buy a product purely based on a celebrity endorsement?
