I’m not dead, just blogging elsewhere.
It was that darned holiday season that pulled me away from here three months ago. With plans for three weeks in Southern California, I forced myself to crank out four advance posts for the Everything Wine store blog in one week, and I never got back to my own blog. Then, as a new years resolution, I decided to redesign the place in Word Press – finally.
But before I could launch this new page theme, the Olympic circus came to town and my job at Canada Hockey Place inhaled my life. Twelve days straight with one day off over sixteen different games that all looked like hockey Halloween. I’ve never clapped nor whoo-hooed so hard in my life.
Though I haven’t been blogging as much, I have added seven new Olympics videos to my Winetalker Youtube channel including my four part series, Better Know a Colbert. I knew he would be at Pride House that week, and on the way to my CHP job I asked a show crewmember when he was scheduled to be there. 6 pm Thursday I just walked upstairs at Qmunity, signed a release, and watched the Can v Suisse game until the man showed up and stayed all of fifteen minutes. So far, Colbert Report has not broadcast this footage, but I have it online. More Vancouverage is coming soon.

Also, I re-scanned and uploaded a new set of images from my old Deadhead Families portrait project, circa 1989. Just looking at them makes me hear Jerry’s voice.
On the wine front, I have plans to review wines from Trio Vintners, Wertzberger Cellars and Le Clos Jordanne, so please come back soon.
And, yea Canada! You deserved it all.
