20th annual rodeo is in the books
The Labour Day weekend was the 20th annual Okotoks Pro Rodeo. I remember well the first one. Verge Reidlinger and Jim Braun were co-chairmen and worked hard getting the event off to a great start.

Something good for the 19th hole
I am a horrible golfer, so I don’t usually play too many rounds of golf over the summer. When I do, I’ll be happy if I can get by with a double bogey on most holes. I’m at my best on the 19th hole.

I will be celebrating my 40th in style
Initially, the idea of “celebrating” my 40th birthday seemed ridiculous, I am in no rush whatsoever to turn 40. In fact, I was more looking forward to eating a haggis burger at the Foothills Highland Games on Saturday than turn 40.

Burger worth risking my life for
How far have you gone to get a good burger? I have jaywalked the Las Vegas Strip for a Fatburger, actually it was more of a full-speed sprint. It’s not like skipping across Elizabeth Street.

Peanut butter burger a surprising combo
Two of my favourite foods are hamburgers and peanut butter and banana sandwiches. I would never have thought to put them both together, until now. The Elvis burger at Marv’s Classic Soda Shop in Black Diamond is one of a kind.

Canada needs to review prison system
For the many reasons why people commit crime in Canada, society has but relatively few ways of punishing such wrong doings, and of reforming convicted felons/persons from committing wrongful acts again.
