Random Bump – A Street Cat Named Bob

I happen to run into this title whilst browsing Youtube. It’s about a real life chance encounter by a orange tabby named Bob and a London street musician, who was a recovering heroin addict when the two met.

This 2012 U.K bestseller has just recently been released on paperback and as an iBook.

Random Bump – Go Long (!)

Ottawa folk jazz trio Go Long (!) has just released their first CD, entitled
“Strings Untied“, and their first music video, “Hurricane”.

This CD, which is also available to download from CD Baby, also includes rather impressive covers of Alannah Myles’ “Black Velvet”, Tom Waits’ “Green Grass”
and T.I’s “Whatever You Like”, the latter being better that the original in my opinion.

The band is currently promoting their album with performances in Eastern Ontario.

I am so tempted to get this…

I used to watch the Kids in the Hall quite regularly on CBC in the late 80’s and early 90’s. It’s pretty much responsible for my dark humour, along with Black Adder, Father Ted and Monty Python. 😉

This 2006 version of the Kids In The Hall Megaset is on sale at Amazon.ca and Amazon.com. But a more recent 2011 megaset is also available at Amazon.com, which apparently includes the “Death Comes To Town” mini-series.
