It’s time again for the “best of spam”! Â These are the cream of the crop of crap that attempt to sneak in past my approval process. Â And they make me laugh! …

We don’t talk about them but we get news releases every day, sometimes dozens, about drunk drivers. OPP, local police, regional police – they all nab drunks on the road every day despite the perception that it’s a situation that’s under control.

To put a new twist on the old song, that ant may have had high hopes, but he can’t do much if he’s dead! Â …

Much fun has been made of so-called Mom jeans. You know the type: they sit higher on the waist than is fashionable and offer a generous amount of room in the seat. They may or may not have an elastic waist. No one you or I know wears Mom jeans but they do exist on the bodies of some women.  They’re not cool. …
The only daughter of our very dear friends got married on the weekend. This event has been long in the planning and heavy in anticipation. And it was a very special, wonderful day. Â Â …
I have a feeling that the only thing my brother will hate more than being sung to in a restaurant is having his photo posted here. Â Oh well! Â …
For about 8 months I’ve been trying to get together with my friend Corinne, a buddy since high school, so she can cut my hair for my second half-century of life. …
I’ve slowed the ant invasion to a trickle. It hasn’t been easy. It involved a lot of poisonous bait inside and out and a few completely futile attempts at finding the colony. But the occasional industrious critter is still coming in so a pest control company will spray the entire house, inside and out, on Friday. …
We stayed at a Comfort Inn last weekend and we usually have a next-to-ideal experience for the dollar. It’s no Ritz but it’s clean, comfortable and in Newmarket’s case, freshly renovated. But there’s a trend I’ve noticed in these mid-range hotels and consider me unimpressed. Â …
I’ve never painted my nails blue before. I don’t tend to colour my fingernails so my toes will have to suffice. And this is no ordinary shade of blue. …
The annual family get-together known as Sharonstock received its annual visit from York Regional Police but this time they used some muscle on the party. Â …
We have been invaded by ants. Crawly, black, awful, disgusting, hateful, stupid ants! …
You may not have any idea who Jason Leffler is. Â But when I found out yesterday morning that he was killed, albeit doing what he loved, my heart broke. Â …
Sometimes my weekly Brandt’s Randt on 98.1 Free-FM is more tongue-in-cheek than serious. Â “Oh, someone touched me in line at the grocery store! WAH!” Â But today I’m deadly serious.

It’s amusing to think that most of the performers in the Stratford Festival’s production of Tommy weren’t born when the double-album first came out in 1969.  But that has no bearing on the show.
