Another CBC Prize

.


This is a CBC Radio Three shirt, featuring a Squirrel Moose.

My entry was

I hears all the clues and I thinks,
"That creature eats rabbits and minks."
So I google the name
From the basketball game
And the answer I find is the Sphinx.

Then I added "I mean, the lynx" because I didn't want to miss out on winning this beautiful prize.

My other choice was a Salmon Beaver.

The price tag says $24.99!!

Mardi Gras Medieval Murder Mystery (Feb. 17)

.


This was a Dinner Theatre fundraiser for St. John's Ambulance. I played King Roland the First (mythically) of England. I can't tell you much about it, because we might redo it next year at a different venue. This time I'll do a better job of advertising. (I'm in another Murder Mystery on Mar. 3, but it's sold out.)


Marnie, (my Queen beside me), Leon (the Fool) and Hanna the Servant Girl (at the front right, that is, downstage left) were all in the Merchant last year with me.

The belly dancers in the front had to perform for me. It's a rough life as an actor.

The play was improv and a last minute innovation I introduced involved the reappearance of my cow shorts.
