A bit of this, a bit of that and few public service announcements.
Hectic & eclectic.

A multi-pronged public service announcement: The Canadian Blood Services stockpile of blood is running dangerously low. What with the weather, bad driving conditions and drunk driving at this time of year blood is needed more than ever. Please contact the Canadian Blood Services at blood.ca and book an appointment to donate some blood.
And of course don't drink and/or toke and drive as tempting as it is during the holidays. You could kill or cripple yourself, or others, or end up with a criminal record. It ain't worth it. |

Great shooooow dude! Pleasingly all over the map. q;^) BTW, Teenage Head (on now) is quite possibly the LOUDEST band I ever heard in a bar scene. Massive amps jammed into small-ish Rondun Tavern on "Ronci" in Toronto. The dance floor was dangerous. Surprised i can still hear anything at all.
