Calendar Girl Blog: Dry Rain
By the time I leave Jordan Ferry, Linda, the host of Dead Bra Day 2005, will have saturated the market with breast calendars and will have helped motivate a whack of gal's from Shelburne county to submit photos for the 2007 calendar. I'm blown away by her energy and generosity. I would like to take her home with me.
Note to self: I must teach Linda the Breast Ambassador salute.
Christine and I will be doing some breast health guerilla work over the next few days. Here's how that works....I go into any public washroom I come across and put up a 2005 calendar on the wall. Then I leave a small pile on the counter, beside the sink, for washroom patrons to pick up if they are inclined.
Two year's will go by and then I will meet someone at an event in some other province. They will tell me a story about where they first came across BoC...a public washroom on the south shore of Nova Scotia, and I will know that my marketing strategy had excellent sticking power.
I'm told by John and Scott, two of the men of Jordan Ferry, that they love the Breast of Canada calendar. This is good. Men get breast cancer. And the women that men love get breast cancer. So if the men of the women of Jordan Ferry are becoming more informed about breast health and breast cancer prevention, this will bode well for all parties.
Yesterday, I reported about the NFH people that I've met. I'm sorry to say that I misinformed you about the acronym. People who are 'not from here' are actually called 'Come From Away' or CFA. And, it would appear, that unless your grandparents were born on this soil, then you're a CFA.
I found this N.S. loyalty charming. People from Ontario (at least the ones that I know,) do not seem to have the same pride in their provincial roots. In fact, many Ontarion's play down their precise home turf location and instead plunk on the bigger hat and simply claim to be Canadian.
I usually play my Guelph card and overlook the Ontario part all together. Guelph seems to have the fortune of good city karma and people always seem to know something about or someone from Guelph.
Heres a Guelph fact. We, the city, is the birthplace of topfree Ontario, making it the obvious place to publish a topfree calendar. So now you know. If I didn't do it, someone else would have.
Calendar Girl is wearing her fleece vest. It is no longer balmy on the south shore of N.S.. It is no longer sunny. It is no longer calm. Yesterday, Calendar Girl learned that N.S. has two seasons. Winter and Winter's Coming. Linda claims the pissy drizzle that is falling is a 'dry rain.'
Funny weather. Ha Ha.
