Yes I’m back! Vacation is over and Tony is putting me back to work. He’s shackled me to a desk, gave me a laptop, camera, ashtray and a few cigars and told me to get back to work. This all with the purpose of him getting back to his normal slacking-off style, hehe! I opened [...]
Yes I am still relaxing in Florida, tanning my pale white Canadian skin and getting the Canadian cold out of my bones! I’ve done some Scuba diving, shopping, sight-seeing and smoking some good cigars. But have no fear, I have not forgot about our trusty readers! I haven’t had enough time to put together a [...]
