Let the seasonal change begin!

Tuesday, October 14, 2008

WOW! What a weekend. We certainly need to be thankful for that one. I can't remember one better and I'm wondering if we set any records? I hear the temperature high for Monday was 28C.

I guess we're in for quite a shock this afternoon, with the temp dropping well down in the teens. We'll just have to bundle up when we head out to vote. Are you as confused as I am with the party positions on key issues in this one?

What a prize in the Fun Zone at 8:15 on the Morning Flight this week. It a Crock Pot and accessories package that has a value of $320.00. To win it, you'll have to tell me if the statement I make each morning is... "The Truth or A Crock." Good Luck.

On Chats Wednesday, we'll update on the Georgian Bay Animal Rescue project, the Collingwood Restaurant Walking Tour and a book called... "Word Birds" by local author Harry Posner.

And another classic comment from a child...

 

Teacher Debbie Moon's first graders were discussing a picture of  a family One little boy in the picture had a different hair color than the other members. One of her students suggested that he was adopted.

A little girl said, 'I know all about adoption, I was adopted.'

'What does it mean to be adopted?', asked another child.

'It means', said the girl, 'that you grew in your mommy's heart instead of her tummy!
