Colin Mocherie and Brad Sherwood have a touring show that I caught this year. Hysterical. They have been touring for about 8 years now I think?

Psst, can I talk to you about a fabulous business opportunity?
If it was Prince Arthur street that might have been me :-)
The effect of Sinistrality on spatial displacement. Yeah, I was a fun fun girl. I did treat my subjects to a pichet of beer after so there was that.
Related: My in laws had the VHS tapes (2) and put it on for Grandma, who was a bit senile, one Christmas. She comes up looking a bit more bewildered than usual and we ask her how she enjoyed the movie. She said it was fine but couldn’t understand why the ship sank and everyone died then they were all alive and acting…
It was a thing as well here in Quebec. Most of my aunts in the 60's were terrified of the dentist and electively chose to have all their teeth removed and dentures fitted so they would never have to go again. They were in their early 20's.
Girl testers. ARGH! My mother and her friends still refer to themselves as the girls and their husbands as men. I have gently pointed out that with the over 70 odd years of being on this planet she should be striving for Queens or at least Duchesses but no deal. Although this is the same woman that pushed me to go to…
Picked it up in the library’s new section and didn’t regret it one bit. LURVED IT!
I bought the soundtrack back when and I still listen to it.
Montreal has everyone beat with a MUSICAL NUMBER, It’s nice in the metro! With a trapped child, a driver spitting in traffic, face petting and square dancing all in 70's splendor.
The Queen’s mum.
I have a tape of Howard the Duck that I’m hanging on to just in case.
Speaking of getting engaged early, my mom and most of her friends were engaged by the age of 16 in 1958. Small town, old traditions, no education etc. But mom got a job, unlike most of her friends, and decided that she didn’t want to get married after all so broke it off. Her ex fiance didn’t want the ring back so she…
Memories. My parents wanted to desperately be hippies (although they were late to the game in ‘76) so they bought and outfitted a Ford van and we drove across Canada and the US for about 4 months before they got fed up and packed it in. I think I was 5 at the time. Your kids will remember this and have really great…
Yup. I hear you. I live about 1000 km from my cousin and haven’t seen her in about 2 years. I happen to be going to her town on business and let her know I would like to see her when it was convenient for her. She replied with a Jamberry invitation to her home the weekend after I was going to be there :-/
My Aunt had Polio as a child and had lost an eye to the disease.. She was considered lucky as some of the children in her ward did not survive. She use to pop her glass eye out at family functions. Fun times.
