SLUGS: Slimy slugs to people who canvas private homes door to door, without invitation, intruding on our time and privacy. Get a soapbox!
HUGS: To the young couple who paid for our 64th anniversary dinner on June 18 at Louie’s Steakhouse. It was much appreciated, thank you very much!
SLUGS: To all the drivers who blow through the stop signs on Third Street in Fairview. As someone who uses that bike path regularly, I have seen more than my fair share of drivers ignoring these stop signs. Take the time to stop and look, and drive responsibly.
SLUGS: To the Canada Post delivery driver who rudely heckled me and my eight-year-old son for biking too slow down the Third Street bike lane.
SLUGS: Capital 'S' slugs to the bozos that leave garbage on the curb in disguise as free goods. I could have really used that vacuum cleaner and instead it made a mess of my new suite. Shame on you. Suck was on blow, and the blow sucked. Why didn't you just take it to the dump where it, and quite frankly you, belong.
HUGS: To the Smither family for their amazing hospitality and showing our family everything Nelson has to offer. We could not have had a more enjoyable start to the summer without them. We are in love with your town and cannot wait to be back.
HUGS: Big hugs to the passer-by with first aid skills who set aside their own day to help when my father tripped and fell in the street outside RBC. You took charge of the situation in such a calm competent way. Hugs also to the RBC first-aider, paramedics and ER staff. Dad is healing well.
