Heidi's birthday! I went to the art supply store and got a birth certificate for $72 to mark her 27th. We met at the Keg to celebrate. Gord, Jonathan, Charlie, Erano, Sara, Ken, Heidi, Stephanie (and briefly, Vi-Chi) showed up. Was good.

rand()m quote

For a long time I was very bitter that the people who controlled the means of anybody ever hearing my songs were never gonna play them. They only favored music that I specifically and particularly hated, and I wanted them dead. Suddenly, there was another avenue. I started hearing my stuff coming out of bars and then it started to happen little by little -- a movie song here or a TV ad there.
