2010 Winter Olympics - The Flames

The B.C. Roll - A Finer Delicacy

With the 2010 Winter Olympics just around the corner, my guess is that the world will be introduced to the delicacy that the local Vancouver folks call the "B.C. Roll".

Remembrance Day 2009

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Happy Halloween!

Have a safe and happy Halloween!
