Thirty-eight-year-old Liv Sándor meets the love of her life swimming in the lake. He looks like Bob Dylan. He talks like Rimbaud and he listens to me. The next scene has her storming out of her house a year later saying to her swimming sweetie that she is leaving and never returning. After storming outContinue reading “RKS 2024 Film: “Les Histoires D’Amour de Liv S.” (The Love Stories of Liv S.)”

“Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog”: The Final Cut: Bloodbath on the Beaches of Darwin! Fatalities, Missing Limbs and Trauma: Chapter Sixty Six (66)
The Ratpack have braved dangers of all sorts but frankly we are terrified of Salties as Winston in “1984” was terrified of bright lights. In fact we are scared shitless. Fast, unpredictable and jaws that can gobble up and swallow a dog whole. Sunday is the crew’s day of rest. We usually hang around theContinue reading ““Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog”: The Final Cut: Bloodbath on the Beaches of Darwin! Fatalities, Missing Limbs and Trauma: Chapter Sixty Six (66)”
“Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog”: The Final Cut :Canadian Grey Cup 108 Years! Reggie Pukes! Those Trudeau Children Fed Me an Entire Slice of Pepperoni Pizza or was it the Chunks of that Ivor Wynn Double Cheeseburger? Those Trudeau Children Fed Me an Entire Slice of Pepperoni Pizza or was it the Chunks of that Ivor Wynn Double Cheeseburger?
We headed to Hamilton, Ontario on Saturday night checking in at the Imperial Hotel the night prior to the big Grey Cup game on Sunday at Tim Horton’s Field. After being in so many European cities on promotional tours for the Disney film “Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog” I would say Hamilton is a bleakContinue reading ““Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog”: The Final Cut :Canadian Grey Cup 108 Years!

“Reggie The Egyptian Rescue Dog”: The Final Cut: The New Rat Pack: Kit Kat Speaks: Chapter Forty Seven (47)
I suppose you may have a question why a Portuguese dog from Porto is a Rat Pack member. Bob writes about wine tourism and a few years back was invited by the Portuguese government on a media tour of the Douro wine region. Mr. Antonio was the driver of a Mercedes van used in thatContinue reading ““Reggie The Egyptian Rescue Dog”: The Final Cut: The New Rat Pack: Kit Kat Speaks: Chapter Forty Seven (47)”
“Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog”: The Final Cut: Reggie’s Security Detail: Penny The Silver Spooned Addition: Already on Probation! Chapter Thirty (30)
My security detail has unsavory elements to it. The Mookster could be referred to The Mobster with a former nefarious North Korean cuddle up with a tyrant background. Ollie handling explosives. Kit Kat with an alleged extremist and drug running past. As well Dillie the Westie has a bit of a silver spooned streak toContinue reading ““Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog”: The Final Cut: Reggie’s Security Detail: Penny The Silver Spooned Addition: Already on Probation!

Travels to a Different Time: Travels of My Mother: 3August1971: Skiros, Greece: We Are Sleeping Outside Under a Grape Arbor
Dear Mother: This is my last letter till I get off Skiros. Every Greek Island brought something new. There was only one small hotel and it was full so we are out of town in vineyard. We have cots to sleep on hoping we are not visited by any scorpions. The sun wakes us upContinue reading “Travels to a Different Time: Travels of My Mother: 3August1971: Skiros, Greece: We Are Sleeping Outside Under a Grape Arbor”
RKS 2024 Wine: No Indigenous Greek Grapes Here
Unfortunately, in Ontario we receive only a small amount of Greek red wine and that which has flowed our way on the retail shelves of our state liquor monopoly fails to impress much of it Xinomavro if not aged sufficiently can be unpleasantly tannic. I was piqued when I saw this Dyo Elies from theContinue reading “RKS 2024 Wine: No Indigenous Greek Grapes Here”
Reggie The Egyptian Rescue Dog: The Final Cut: Karim Tells us About Himself: Chapter Seventeen
My name is Karim and I think I am about three years old. I was born in Egypt like Reggie. I am part Schnauzer and weigh the same as Reggie which is about 18 pounds. All that delicious chicken kibble and of course the chunks of cheese that “accidentally fall” on the floor have plumpedContinue reading “Reggie The Egyptian Rescue Dog: The Final Cut: Karim Tells us About Himself: Chapter Seventeen”
Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog: The Final Cut: Dillie the Westie Speaks About Karim and Reggie: Together We are the Rat Pack! Chapter 16
My name on my registration papers with the Canadian Kennel Club is Dylan Saunders. But I have at least a dozen nicknames such as Snookums, Poopie, Dillie, Dillykins, Lambchops, Pumpkin and Sweetie are just a few but most often it is Dillie and that suits me fine. I am older than Reggie and Karim. IContinue reading “Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog: The Final Cut: Dillie the Westie Speaks About Karim and Reggie: Together We are the Rat Pack! Chapter 16”
Travels to a Different Time: Travels of My Mother: 12February1971: Amsterdam, Holland: Hippies at Heineken
Dear Barb: Last night was Ex Lax night so today I stay fairly close to the hotel. They don’t serve many vegetables here. I have been eating too many starches. Although so tasty they are hard to refuse. The most incredible pastry. The boys would go wild. I have been to the symphony. The concertContinue reading “Travels to a Different Time: Travels of My Mother: 12February1971: Amsterdam, Holland: Hippies at Heineken”
