Canadians Hail Callwood’s Legacy
June Callwood, Canadian journalist, humanitarian and social activist, died early Saturday after a long fight with cancer. She was 82.
Although this lady didn’t achieve the kind of status for her work as Vonnegut did for his, she more than surpassed the average person’s compassion and insight. I used to love watching her on tv and reading her work when I could get my hands on it.
Canada will miss this lady…we’re the worse for her passing.
“Who is more to be pitied, a writer bound and gagged by policemen or one living in perfect freedom who has nothing more to say?”
- Kurt Vonnegut
I’ve posted two more items to the contest, so check the page to see if that whets your appetite for some really good horror fiction! Ooooo, and there are two more announcements coming to the contest by the end of next week…including one very hot actor’s pic from one very good King movie…SIGNED!
And, I found out via Kevin James Hurtack that Nocturnal Ooze had indeed accepted my short, Black & White, for the April/May publication. Check it out!
Nocturnal Ooze
I can’t even find the words.
Kurt Vonnegut Dies at 84
Kurt Vonnegut, whose dark comic talent and urgent moral vision in novels like “Slaughterhouse-Five,†“Cat’s Cradle†and “God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater†caught the temper of his times and the imagination of a generation, died last night in Manhattan. He was 84 and had homes in Manhattan and in Sagaponack on Long Island.

How do you like the new banner and the background for the page? I just couldn’t take looking at that other background anymore, and I’m sure most folks felt like that too.

So, if you’ve been wondering how to link to me without using just plain old text, here’s a banner for you to use. It’s huge, I’m warning you!
Right click and save it to your own hosting space. I tend to frown mightily upon those that steal my bandwidth..and I’ve been known to swap images out with nasty semi-pornographic ones to embarrass those that pander in bandwidth theft.
Like the Catholic priest that used one of my images in his blog. Hehehehe…
