Yesterday, Mrs. LFM was able to capture an amazing phenomenon – that with his magick ball in his teeth, our dog Milo can fly!
Dark Sentiments – Day 31
Randy | October 31, 2010
Today marks the second anniversary of the best, brightest, and most perfect thing I have ever done in my life – on this day in 2008, my perfect Mate and I joined with a select few in a ritual that bestowed upon us the treasured titles of Husband and Wife. This Hallowe’en dark sentiment is […]
Dark Sentiments – Day 29
Guest Post by Mrs. LFM
Diana | October 29, 2010
Mrs. LFM here this evening. My Mate has granted me the honour of doing a guest post to share my love of dark entertainment. I was introduced to dark stories at a very early age. I thrived on them. Happy endings were for wussies, I liked ’em bleak and dreary. My initiation into that world […]
Dark Sentiments – Day 28
Randy | October 28, 2010
“You don’t have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.” ~ C. S. Lewis Throughout this series I’ve applied the title of “dark sentiment” to a variety of emotions, events, human acts, portrayals, and situations. Tonight we’ll talk about the darkest sentiment of all – True Love. True Love is the darkest […]
Dark Sentiments – Day 9
Randy | October 9, 2010
I was three when my parents bought the house on Lunenburg’s Cumberland Street where I grew up. It was a Cape Cod style house located in the “Old Town” section, and had been built in the late 1700’s or early 1800’s. The perimeter of the house rested on a foundation of whitewashed native slate, its […]
Announcement of my Conception Has Its Own Theme Song
Randy | September 24, 2010
My mother was born and raised into her mid-teens in Montreal, Quebec. Her parents separated shortly after the end of World War II with her mother remaining in Montreal while her father moved back to his birthplace in East Chester, Nova Scotia. When she was fifteen years old, and against her own mother’s wishes, my […]
The Sandwich With the Dragon Tattoo
Randy | September 20, 2010
The first time I read Lord of the Rings, I’m sure I was personally responsible for skyrocketing values of stocks for companies involved in the production of bacon, mushrooms, and dark, full bodied beers. I absolutely enjoy any literature that confronts me with a description of food consumed by the characters that leaves me wanting […]
Results of a Few Hours on the Road Without My Woman
Randy | July 27, 2010
Mrs. LFM and I work as a team in all our endeavours and hence, each of us rarely goes abroad in the land without the other. Well, today was an exception – she had some field work to do with a couple of our dogs while I got to do a fire alarm inspection in […]
A Bit More LFM Family History
Randy | July 26, 2010
Mrs. LFM was born in Poland during the Communist regime. She and her family, mother Izabella and father Ryszard, came to Canada by way of Italy in October 1986. Politically, this would be called a defection. On a human level, I’d call it nothing more or less than a family trying to build a better […]
She Brought Me Her Worst Born
Randy | July 11, 2010
Once upon a time my business included operation of the dispatch centre that handled calls for the Lunenburg-Mahone Bay Police Service and five Lunenburg County fire departments. A regular event was somebody losing track of their dog, or someone calling in to report that they had a stray in their possession. The logistics of these […]
