Great stuff! Have you ever done anything on the history of the iconic CN logo? It's a cool story.

Anna and Dane's kids were classmates with mine way back when. I wonder if Anna remembers the underwear incident with my Son #1? I wish I could share but he would be very embarrassed.

They were the nicest couple.

Personally, I am mentally singing "Blackfly" on every dog walk so far this week...

Enjoyed seeing that classic short at the Ottawa International Animation Festival back in the 1990s.

Growing up whenever my dad saw this on TV, he would always say, "Did you know your great grandfather did that?" and he would sit down and watch it with us. If he wasn't around, my sister and I would say it for him.
