Black Bra & Heels – Three Women, Three Stories, One Joke

Posted on April 14, 2016 by Chris Cane

As told by a wife! I had lunch with 2 of my unmarried friends. One is engaged, one is a mistress, and I have been married for 20+ years. We were chatting about our relationships and decided to amaze our men by greeting them at the door wearing a black bra, stiletto heels and a

The Blind Date or How I met your Mother?

Posted on April 12, 2016 by Chris Cane

Most of our friends know that Cheryl, my first wife, my only wife and now my wife of forty years, and I met on a blind date. Very few know the details of that first evening. We were nineteen; it was August 6, 1966. Roger Pelletier, my best friend at the time and Annabelle Altro, Cheryl’s

Posted on April 7, 2016 by Chris Cane

Originally posted to the blog on April 8th 2009 and edited April 7, 2016 to fix some links that had changed. A woman by the name of Jeanette reminded me of my world in 1969 and this blog post.   The year is 1969 and I’m on the DEW Line at DYE-MAIN Cape Dyer on

It was me, said the flea or perhaps it was I said the fly.

Posted on April 5, 2016 by Chris Cane

On the day leading up to the Reds opening day, a woman who is known to her friends as the “Wife of Sam” was murdering a piece of the English language that we all hold so dear. She had the paucity to correct me when I said “It was me.” She said “It was I.”

Under attack – Brute Force Attack and Loginizer

Posted on April 4, 2016 by Chris Cane

Most of you won’t care a hoot about this post because, in all likelihood, you don’t create and manage a WordPress Site. The WP Hosting company, I now use is www.siteground.com and one of the plugins that they suggest to install is one called ‘loginizer‘  (See https://wordpress.org/plugins/loginizer/) if you’re so inclined. Their website is https://www.loginizer.com – I

Cars behaving squirrely or R.I.P. Rocky

Posted on March 31, 2016 by Chris Cane

Revised: 3/31/2016-You’ll see why towards the end! There were a dozen Z3’s and Z4’s en-route to ZFEST 2011 in Spartanburg SC. This particular convoy had folks from Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio. ZFEST (www.zfest.com)  is an annual event for owners of BMW Z Series cars. Linda and Jim from somewhere in the Great State of

How’s Your Father (Yes, this is a euphemism)

Posted on March 30, 2016 by Chris Cane

A while back, I was watching an episode of George Gently on Netflix or perhaps Acorn TV and George’s young apprentice or helper who always comes across as, perhaps a little insensitive made reference to a suspect having a little ‘How’s your father?’ on the side. It was obviously a euphemism for sexual intercourse and

The Great Storm of 71 – Fundy National Park – Camping with Chris & Cheryl

Posted on March 18, 2016 by Chris Cane

This is an excerpt from the Chapter called ‘The Mainland’ in a book I wrote back in 2004. Most of our trip to the mainland has been forgotten except for our trip to Fundy National Park. The Bay of Fundy is like a funnel open to the sea. When the tide comes in the water

How Not To Get Laid

Posted on March 16, 2016 by Chris Cane

A man goes into a restaurant and is seated. All the waitresses are gorgeous. A particularly voluptuous waitress wearing a very short skirt and legs that won’t quit came to his table and asked if he was ready to order,”What would you like, sir?” He looks at the menu and then scans her beautiful frame
