Toronto, biking & walking, Blue Jays. Americana, world & roots music. Dreaming of a world free of Poilievre, Doug Ford, & Pu*in, and that other guy. Trying to ignore politics in that crazy country south of us.
I remember back in the early 60s, Maple Leaf Gardens sent a letter to people who had season tickets in the “reds” (most expensive seats), noting that some people weren’t dressing “appropriately.” Jackets & ties, and dresses were expected.

The only really famous person I've had to spend time with was Leonard Cohen. I asked him how his songs came to be used in McCabe And Mrs. Miller. He said when the Altman people called, he'd recently seen Brewster McCloud, loved it, and was happy to be a part of whatever Altman did next.

Very possible there would be significant voter rejection of such a quick blatant opportunistic move. Ford 25 & Trudeau 21 didn’t really suffer for unnecessary call, though it was later in their term. Peterson 90 got burnt tho.

Cuba has already warned international airlines. They will now be forced either to send planes to the island with extra fuel from their departure airports, make refuelling stops in other countries — or, ultimately, cancel flights 🚨
