I got half way through that Peter Adler Oiler article and stop reading. What a bunch of sensational nonsense!

I have never been to Heritage Days (festival? what’s it actually called?) so this would be my first time.

Jeff, have you never been to Heritage Days before…?

The empty arena could be used to house the homeless. We could teach them to play hockey, and force them to compete against each other for our amusement! Then, when they get good enough, we buy our way back into the NHL and pit our team of homeless hometown heroes against the best players the NHL has to offer!

Did you catch that alliteration back there? Man, I should write for the news! I’d just need to bone up on my knowledge of soups and squirrels with yogurt cups stuck on their heads…

Leah, he probably does, but there’s all that tax money to spend on something.

Derjis, enjoy your giant napping domes.

Mari, I’m actually excited to check things out. I definitely want to try some different kinds of food (and waffles, Eva Sweet is going to be at the Belgian pavilion) but there are too many countries to just focus on food. I hope to get a feel for the whole Heritage Festival experience.

Heritage Days: please take some time to watch the performances! Otherwise it becomes a nonprofit version of Taste of Edmonton. It makes me a little sad when people spend all day in lineups, when it should be about celebrating our heritages. And say “Hi!” to my mom at the Japanese pavilion.
