Surrender to Frosty


 It takes Frosty a while to "drain the icicle."

  Shape up, you mitten muppets.

 

The big dig

Two minutes with Steven Wright

Steven Wright's drolly-delivered one-liners tickled 40 years of comedy anxieties. His odd persona flickered in Reservoir Dogs, Half Baked and a few sitcoms.

Wright appears rarely these days. Next gig: two New Jersey concerts in April. He's 67.

Everybody yell Jump

Glossary dining

 

   Served with a bespoke drizzle of adjectives.

 

"Then he chased me with a poker"

 

   You've seen us on Cops.

   We're just born bad.

Slush me up

 

 

 

Please, no solicitors

 

    Sorry, we're Gorgonzolas. 

 

Snout and about

Memories for sale

 

 
So I see Molly's Reach,
iconic restaurant of CBC-TV's 
Beachcombers
is for sale again at a third the price
of a so-so Toronto condo.
 
List price for the biz:
$ 299,999.
Details at the link.
 
Molly's sits at the top of the dock
an hour north of Vancouver,
first ferry stop up
the tourist-friendly 
Sunshine Coast.
 
The ghosts of Nick and Relic
are familiar to only
half the visitors it's claimed.
 
My primary memory
is walking down the hill to the set
in morning sunshine,
hearing a strange rustling
from the ditches.
 
Snakes.
 
And of course, the story editor.
