Born on a mixed subsistence farm in rural Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia, Canada. Moved to Ontario in 1967 to attend University at what was then Waterloo Lutheran University and moved to Oakville, Ontario in 1971. Without intending to live up to the name became a letter carrier the following January and have worked for Canada Post ever since. I retired in August of 2008.

Caveat Emptor

There was a time when one could buy a stuffed, frozen turkey breast that actually contained white meat. Wanting a boneless breast I failed to notice the word ‘semi-’ tacted in front of the word boneless on my Maple Leaf turkey ‘breast’. ‘Semi-’ means that they leave in the turkey’s keel bone, the largest, heaviest, and easiet removed in the breast. By the time one has removed that bone and scooped out the stuffing there’s very little actual meat left. Shame on Maple Leaf Foods and shame on me for ignoring caveat emptor.
