Log in to write a note

Hey Peter, I did get your note and went back and checked the entries. I did read those a long time ago and I left a few notes beforehand on one or two of them. And yes, I have seen 911: In Plane Site a few times at least already. Anyway, great to meet someone else with a brain and an open mind (hehe, figures you’d be Canadian) so… cheers mate.

I like the smoked salmon/cc in a sushi roll. A bit of wasabi/soy/pickled ginger and it goes down so nice!

Okay, mayo on hot dogs is just wrong! But I have to say that it’s a better choice than ketchup!!!

You must like a few secular holiday songs other than those by the inestimable Mr. Davis, Jr. “Snoopy’s Christmas”, maybe? “Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer”? “Nuttin’ for Christmas”? Ol’ Blue Eyes singing “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”?
