May it please prove so successful they move on to Count Zero, which changed my life. I've been an assemblage artist for over 30 years.
Early in my career as a "box maker" I created this piece in homage, and through a "6 Degrees of Vancouver" passed this along...
Thank you for EVERYTHING Mr G.

I've read almost everything Doctorow has written... but have yet to read that one! Love his stuff - humour, romance, social and digital monkeywrenching... brilliant. And he's Canadian! 🇨🇦

Extraordinary and fascinating book. My wife and I visited St Malo last year - it was surreal, knowing much had been bombed to rubble. Completely rebuilt with as much historical accuracy as possible; a strange blend of deep history, and contemporary upscale boutique shopping. Designer Di$neyland.

I use a Formanizer. Gave my Dad the gears for buying late night tv products when I saw his years ago and then, after he fed me several amazing variations of meals, bought my own. The waffle grids were an unexpected bonus, and the double hinge construction makes for hefty waffle (or riffle) depth.

I keep hearing about Tater Tot waffles but don’t generally have them in the house. Turkey stuffing waffles sound like gridded heaven.

Have they considered cf47’s own X feed?

I make dinner waffles aka riffles from precooked rice, egg, plus diced up whatever - veg like zuchs and tomatoes, ham or bacon, cheeses etc. Essentially all the ingredients of an omelette bound together with rice and put in the waffle iron. Moving on to dessert waffles is always an option.

That looks deelish… but far more like PIE. 🤔🩷

First job out of high school was dishwasher on the midnight shift at a 24 hour Howard Johnsons. Less screaming (although warranted), more weed.

5 mated pairs at our feeders all winter here in Guelph Ontario. ❤️

The same way the anti-vaxxers yelled that nurses and doctors were being paid to lie about the dangers of Covid. If my RN wife had been taking the $$$$ the idiots claimed we wouldn’t be driving a decade old car and eyeballing our grocery bills.

Always fascinated by the “they’re all paid” responses… like the magats forget which side the billionaires are bankrolling.

I live in a city of 140,000 people an hour west of Toronto - and you can’t get a 1bd apartment for under $2k here either. It’s fucked up.

With kiddos and veg, I wonder if if it helps to take the “spaghetti = worms n garbage” approach? My whole attitude towards Brussels sprouts changed decades ago when a friend casually referred to them as BUDGIE HEADS. Can’t unsee that. 😛

I used to love onions. And garlic. Then in my early 50s my digestive system turned traitor and I am now on the FODMaP diet (negating fermentable sugars) and alliums are my worst of many triggers. It sucketh. And eating out is a nightmare because, as your husband notes, they’re in EVERYTHING. 😒

bacon and a nice hit of maple syrup 😍

roast it or bbq it 😍

There’s a line in Pete Townsend’s song ‘Slit Skirts’, “…But, unlike me, she don't work off her frustration in the gym.” that I often have earwurmed gym mornings. I love the song; current frustrations? not so much.
