		<title>Log Driver&#8217;s Waltz</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a nice sample of Canadian folk music &#8211; or a kind of a Canadian folk music: Wade Hemsworth&#8217;s bouncy, cheerful &#8220;Log Driver&#8217;s Waltz&#8221;. Produced by the National Film Board of Canada in 1979 this little &#8220;vignette&#8221; as the NFB calls it, has become an iconic bit of Canada&#8217;s cultural flotsam and jetsam. The song [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You may know I&#8217;m a big fan of interesting quotes, proverbs and assorted bits of trivia&#8230;who isn&#8217;t? Here&#8217;s one I recently stumbled on and liked. Like the best proverbs, there&#8217;s a real feel of truth to it: &#8220;Straightening the bend in old wood is a difficult job.&#8221; (Gaelic: An car a h&#8217; anns an t-seana [...]]]></description>

		<title>Friday Funny</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the funniest books I own is a little volume called &#8220;Bride of Dark and Stormy&#8221;. It&#8217;s a collection of the best entries to the Bulwer-Lytton literary competition. Unlike once-funny TV shows like, say, M*A*S*H, this slim volume has never become dated and has always made me laugh. The contest is run by the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Alex MacMillan:  It&#8217;s a Small World</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“It&#8217;s a small world” must be one of the most often said bromides in the English language. But, surely for a reason: it is a small world. The top-of-the-small-world-pops in my family belongs to the story of my younger sister and her husband. Here&#8217;s the scoop: After meeting and date number three or so they [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy New Year! Keep Right on to the End of the Road</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Happy New Year to one and all. Here&#8217;s a New Year&#8217;s prezzie: This is a version of Harry Lauder&#8217;s &#8220;Keep Right on to the End of the Road&#8220;, a song that was number one with a bullet in 1918. Edinburgh-born Lauder was the first British singer to sell a million records. He&#8217;d surely wallop me [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gaelic College Fiddles with the Great Highland Bagpipe</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Cape Breton is surely a beautiful part of the world &#8211; in the summer, anyway. I&#8217;ve spent a good few summer weeks in the past teaching at the Gaelic College of Celtic Arts and Crafts in St. Ann&#8217;s. Happy times, for sure, with a hundred kids or so running up and down the hills with [...]]]></description>

		<title>One Sunday Morning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a photo from the archives; one of my favourites. I especially like the soft light in this pic. Here we see mid-August morning sun stream through the great stretch of high windows squintifying the weary, mostly hungover band of friends. [apologies to Sister Wendy: I may've ripped off her commentary/patter there]. The picture was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Echoes of Remembrance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today is Remembrance Day. They&#8217;re all important but maybe today notably so since we have a once-in-a-century day marker in 11/11/11. As a kid Remembrance Day was all about learning John McCrae&#8217;s &#8220;In Flander&#8217;s Fields&#8221; and little plastic finger-pricking poppies. Then, it seems to me, there wasn&#8217;t much depth to public school Remembrance Day. It [...]]]></description>
