I am against time, Pumpkins. Time is an evil force which sags faces, enlarges midriffs and destroys joints. It is the number one killer among older people. Not to mention what it does to one’s well-earned sense of superiority. Where…
Dear Pumpkins, I have some things to say, so I’m just going to say them. One. The Bloating Of PR Is Killing The Trade Rag If suppliers continue to bankroll pushers of free publicity (commonly known as “PR people”) there…
Pumpkins, my head is spinning like I downed a litre of Babcia’s nalewka – 90 proof with a bit of blueberry for colour. The fumes alone will fry your fresh pink liver to molten Hawaiian lava. I know you supplier…
I’m given to understand, dahrlings, that last night a confluence of forces that included ‘bed’, ‘open jaw video camera’ and ‘Jean-Marc Eustache’ were at play in an area no bigger than a hotel room. I don’t make this stuff up, my little…

I’m feeling very protectionist, these days, Pumpkins. Patriotic, even. And it’s so not like me to wave a flag, dahrlings. In fact, they used to call me Ivanna without Borders. Or was it bloomers? Anyhoo, Trump thinks he can just…
With the Competition Bureau emasculating Softvoyage, that phrase has lost its je ne c’est quoi, Dahrlings. The now somewhat aptly named Softvoyage will see competitive engines revving up for dominance. It’s like rutting season has been unleashed on travel, Pumpkins!! So exciting. [Can I…
Ivanna Gabbalot Columnist Part legend, part myth, all woman: Ivanna Gabbalot is OJ’s gossip columnist and considers herself the industry’s conscience. Equally annoying to Open Jaw management and inflated egos in C-suites everywhere, Ivanna touches topics others fear to tackle.
An absolutely unrepairable disservice has been done to Gucci, dahrlings. The atelier’s image has been dragged through the drug infested world of rapdom like a mink stole through a flea market. Oh, and there’s something about WestJet, natch. Some barely…
