Who's Whomin Who?

Yoohoo! Little Pumpkinos! Where are you hiding? There is nothing like a game of hide & seek to get the blood pumping, darhlings. I remember tucking into the closet of the Lady Sandals one time … when I woke…

Europe Stole Our Winter

And they’ve named it “Cooper”. You see, dahrlings, in Europe anyone can buy their very own weather for $389 Euros. It’s called the “Adopt-A-Vortex” scheme. Fabulous. I have no doubt there is a vortex out there just waiting to be…

Where Do They Put The Bodies?

There is no more need to repent our sins, Pumpkins, or ask for forgiveness. PR is man’s salvation. U.S. firms [also known as ‘cleaners’] are raking in millions to finesse the images of murderous African dictators – I call…

It's A Slot Fight!

Oh boy, oh boy – I love it! Nothing like an old fashioned cockpit match, eh Pumpkins? (I haven’t seen one of those since Vic Nakhleh was transferred to Toronto. Or maybe that was a hissy fit.) In any…

Wake Up & Smell the Marijuana

Ay caramba, Pumpkins! What Canadian gringos are saying about Mexico these days will make your smoke curl. Time to pull our heads out of the Mayan sand, dahrlings. The latest piñata practice on a Canadian tourist is causing quite…

My Life For A Discount!

No doubt once Concordia passengers get over the nightmares of hanging off the side of a sinking ship in the middle of the night, they will be calling their lawyers. But not to worry, Pumpkins, Carnival Corp. has staved off…

I'm Cultivating My Muffin

I have cotton head, Pumpkins. My homeopath says it’s yeast. Now I’m afraid to sit under the dryer in case I bake something. Speaking of which, the McTavishes just rolled into some dough by selling their biz to the Mennonites…

Did Someone Call Shelley Winters?

With the Poseidon Adventure playing out on high def TV screens all over North America, we have some fires to put out, Pumpkins. Holy Titanic! A couple of rocks and poof, the Med flows into the theatre! Call me…

Why Am I Here?

It’s January, Pumpkins, and while it might be warm here in the T-dot by frostbitten Canadian standards it’s still pretty nipply for a woman of my breeding and skimpy sartorial tastes.  The news boy got his fix of Cuban…

We're On The Wrong Side

Looking to expand your business, dahrlings? Go east, young entrepreneur. And I don’t mean Halifax.  In case you haven’t noticed, Asia’s exploding. The travel industry over where the sun rises makes Canada’s ITC Inc. look like Horton’s Whoville. The…
