Some stuff you might enjoy or find useful:
- Collages from issues of LIFE magazine.
- One Hit Wonders: artists that charted exactly once
on radio station CHUM's charts between 1957 and 1986. Now at 305 entries.
- 70s God Rock: a number of songs in the late 1960s and 1970s had God or religion
as their theme. I'll see how many of them I can remember.
- Mashups created using Audacity (open-source music editing software).
- People In The News: people who appeared in Toronto newspapers in times past. Some of these
were taken from my
Toronto Old News blog of newspaper articles, which
I discontinued in November 2023. As of this writing, there are over 725 entries.
- My running blog: what it's been like to take up running in late middle age. (I
started running again from scratch in April 2026 and am now able to run 40 minutes in one go, though very slowly.)
- My Perl book from the 1990s.
- The 9 a.m. Project: A bunch of workday mornings.
- My old blog.
- My Flickr page (including photos of Toronto ghost signs).
- If you like, you can follow me on Bluesky.
- Santa Claus Is Coming To Town: a collection of Eaton's Santa Claus Parade ads from the Toronto Daily Star.
- Some interesting old documents that I have found.
- My Toronto photos.
- Some writing of mine from the 1990s retrieved from the
Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.
- Other random writing about this and that.
- If you have any comments on or corrections to anything I've written here, you
can email me.
Note: while the quality of my writing is debatable and probably varies, I wrote it all myself. No AI tools were used to generate it.
