The dark side of White Rock

If you haven’t strolled the promenade at night  in White Rock, you’re missing one of the best damn romantic evenings you can find.
And it’s free – unless you wander up to the little shop that offers ice-cream so luscious, creamy, drippy soft, mmmmm….oh my. It’s that good, trust me ; )
And for fun, walk down past the [...]

Dave Gerry blogs Monday morning

Stop by Monday AM to find out why women in particular love that “glow from below”…..
As for me, it is officially Christmas Decorating Day. Lights to string, spruce to swag and jolly special coffee to drink! Peace on Earth ,Good will to men! ( I can dream, can’t I? )

Are you in love with me or did you really just step on my foot?

( Written with apologies to the male in question for the fun I’m about to poke at you)
I recently was the unwitting object of a ‘missed connection’.
 A reader of mine emailed  me an ad that she had read on Craigslist, from the Missed Connections section. She said that it sounded like me he was describing in the ad, and [...]

Bits and Bites- Wednesday August 27th, 2008

YES!!! Nothing like the hump day before a long weekend- the last long weekend of summer. C’est la vie. We moan and complain all summer long, and then BAM- it’s done.
Who will you vote for in the next provinical election? According to a new Angus Reid poll,Carol James and the NDP are ahead of Gordon [...]

Bits and Bites Wednesday August 22- 2008

Ah, yes…. smell the air folks. Come on now, breathe deeply… ahhhhhhh. Smell that? That’s the smell of school approaching. Maybe this is just me, but as the commercial on tv spoofs with a classic Christmas song, ” It’s the most wonderful time , of the year!” Don’t get me wrong- I have great kids, no [...]

Bits and Bites – Wednesday August 13th, 08

I noticed something quite surprising one recent morning – that indecipherable smell, taste, feeling  in the air that unmistakeably heralds the approaching end to summer. Seems earlier this year, but as I get older, that (crisp) feeling & (full-bodied) smell excites me even more. This is the time of the year I really seem to come to life. Fall is my [...]

Men and Women tell it like it is – or – theories on cheating and checking out the opposite sex

I would like to apologise to the man who nearly drove his bike his bike right off the seawall along False Creek yesterday. I’m so sorry that you and your overgrown, steroid popping friends couldn’t read the clearly posted signs that said you were in the WALKING lane. I’m also sorry that when you finally [...]

Disturbing observations on aging – and younger men.

Nothing makes me feel older, and younger, than having another child to care for. Having 4 kids in such a range of ages, working, and running a tidy home could be compared to managing a corporation. Planning, risk assessment,damage control, all of these terms are applicable to the daily and long term success of our family.
But damn, [...]

Got sex appeal?

Gasp!!   A new study shows that both women and men use their looks to gain favours…..

 No???!!!! Really?
Well, DUH!!!!  I cannot believe someone  actually financed a study to confirm what I think we all know. Good looking people get further in life, get more goodies, get better looking partners and are usually first pick for everything. [...]
