Ghosts of Bloggies Past 13

And the topic that started my blogging--my parent's cross-country move to Nanaimo.

Discovering Teena Marie in my teens...

...was like discovering the female Prince. I was in love.



Other women I loved in the 80s:
The Pointer Sisters
Chaka Khan
Patti Labelle
Annie Lennox
Aretha Franklin
Heart
Toronto

Need some Elvis?

Here's another super iTunes deal. Elvis' #1 hits album:

30 songs
plus the "A Little Less Conversation" remix

for $5.99.

I do like me such deals. I like to stock up on "best ofs" of people who are sort of Classic, but I don't want to buy their whole backlist.

The End of Georgia

I stayed up til 6 AM so could read all of the last Angus book. I'd read that the dénouement was too quick, and they weren't kidding. You wait ten books for Georgia and Dave the Laugh to finally get together, and their get-together scene last about 4 lines. One page at most. Like being brought up a gradual incline, and then pushed off a cliff! Either it's crummy writing, or she has some sort of follow-up series/short story or something planned. Grrr!

But how enjoyable it all was. Definitely my favourite cats and toddler of all time. "He laaaiiikes it!"
