Mood: caffeinated
My wife's brother, Fred Noseworthy,(from Spaniard's Bay Newfoundland) is in Toronto in order to get the latest treatment(state of the art radiation)for prostate cancer. He and his wife, Evonne, are staying in a Toronto hotel courtesy of the "Canada Health Act" which guarantees the best treatment for any disease in Canada.
Fred was eager to play eurche against me and my partner, brother/caplain, Joe Noseworthy, so I went to the hotel and drove him and his wife to our place in Brampton. Needless to say, Fred played with three different partners and lost with each. Too bad Fred, but you'll win with the computerized micro radiation treatments at Princess Margaret. Slowly, but surely we're getting closer and closer to a cure for prostate cancer.
Today, we went to a Christmas party at Billings Court Manor in Burlington. This is the nursing home where my wife's other brother, Joe, is the caplain. In previous years, I've been Santa there, but not 2006. They found a guy who has a real Santa's beard. Looks like I'll have to find another part-time job as a bad Santa somewhere.
