Peter Ladner, Vancouver's deputy mayor, proved himself a friendly gentleman the other day. We had a congenial chat during which the jolt from a cup of fresh Starbucks coffee caused me to cut to the chase and ask him how things are really going up on West 12th avenue. His frank reply may also have been java-inspired as he indicated an expectation at Vancouver city hall that the city's 11 week civic strike will end this week. This bit of promising news, combined with Ladner's exceptional taste in neck ties, rekindles my faith in a bright future for Vancouverites.
---------------------------------
Ryan Reynolds, otherwise known as Oliver Crescent, came back to his hometown this weekend for a visit. A leisurely drive along the residential streets of Vancouver's west side may reveal the origins of the alias. If you saw a familiar-looking guy inside a U-haul vehicle this weekend, it was probably Reynolds who was seen at that company's location in Surrey. And, if you see a familiar-looking guy at Inspiring Grounds coffee house on West Broadway, it was probably Reynolds who's been spotted there, too.

Long live the 80's was the battle cry of a bachelorette party I saw prowling around South Granville. This costumed group of lively gal-pals celebrated their girl Holly, and her decision to walk the plank, I mean, um, the aisle. It's quite likely they weren't even old enough to wear shoulder pads when the 80's played out yet still they embraced the decade of aerobics and Final Net.
The bride-to-be, Holly, is in the middle wearing a tiara and red Flashdance top. She asked me if I had any advice for the honeymoon. Hopefully her fiancé wouldn't mind that she's asking this question of random guys with camera phones.
----------------------------------
Critical Mass was also evident on South Granville. Friday night traffic came to a grinding halt as hundreds of cyclists traveled north on Granville street, three lanes abreast. Their cohorts blocked vehicles from entering the intersection at Broadway. The stunt elicited some honks from irritated drivers, but all the cyclists just rode along with big smiles. Critical Mass occurs the last Friday of the month in cities all over the world as self-propelled commuters take to the streets en masse. Apparently it started up about 15 years ago down in San Fran (thanks, Wikipedia!)
And one last thing today, I'd like to take this moment to officially declare Vancouver as the first city of snappy one-liners on the back of trucks...
