Jan 12 2020 - The Windsor Cult

Just in - this news on how to keep New Year's Resolutions!  Modify them - every day. That comes from The Beaverton - "North America's Trusted Source of News".  Really?  Who is this news source.  Here's the answer it provides: "The Beaverton is a weekly satirical news show airing Wednesdays at 10 pm on Comedy, just before Full Frontal with Sam Bee. A televised adaptation of the immensely popular website TheBeaverton.com, it files fictional stories of the utmost importance, informed by real events, the cultural zeitgeist, and national news media. Using a “fake news” platform The Beaverton offers devastating insight and biting commentary on Canadian life, politics, and the world around us." Better than New Year's Resolutions, here's their headline on Harry and Meghan Local actress successfully deprograms member of hereditary cult LONDON – Meghan Markle, an actress best known for her role on the USA network series Suits is now adding another role to her CV: deprogrammer.  “Extracting a cult member is notoriously difficult, managing to do it after joining the cult itself is almost unheard of,” says cult expert Joanie Gorski. “This is one for the history books. Or at least several dozen podcasts.” "The Cult of Windsor, which in its current form dates back to 1917, is known for being insular and territorial. Along with documented instances of incest and the grooming of teenage brides, accusations of pedophilia have also recently been leveled against a highly placed member of the organization." There's more satire to read in the article.  Consider the invitation at the bottom of the article:  "Want to learn how to write satire as brilliant as this? We have workshops coming up in Toronto, Ottawa and Vancouver. Find out more."  You have to move fast as the Toronto workshop is today. I am consolidating some of my photo storage and found this picture - a delightful summer image of the condominium garden at the top of Thompson Street where we lived in Toronto.

Blossom Garden in Toronto

I went looking for pictures of my Toronto garden in the Autumn, and found a few to share with you today.

Backing onto Mimico Creek (in the first image), there was always something colourful in Autumn in the surrounding area.  In the garden itself, the Magnolias had the showy autumn foliage, with the colour peaking in October.  These images are from October 2010.
