“Hi. How’s it going?  Did you have a good weekend?” “Yeah. Quiet.” “Did you go out on Saturday night?” “No.  I watched a movie at home with my other half.” A long time ago, we were afraid of being really bored on a Saturday night if we didn’t get drunk! The Little Willies – Gotta […]

You all know this term ‘white night’ (otherwise known in some parts of the world as an ‘all-nighter’).  This is a way of saying that we stayed up all night and went to bed the following morning. In general, we pull an all-nighter when we’re studying for an exam the next day.  But sometimes these […]

“Olivier, look!” “What?” “Here!  Look at this!” “Where?” “Here! ” “I don’t see anything!” “You don’t see anything?” ” No.  I don’t see anything!  Damn, I see nothing!” And yes, there’s no doubt, like most of us in our fifties, I need glasses!

What’s better?  A sports bar or a sports complex? You can imagine that my answer to the question above is a sports bar! Yet, I was quite athletic when I was young.  I played football, handball, and I even did some boxing.  But that was a long time ago when I went to school.  And […]

Those men who are 50 years old and over and still have their hair raise their hands!  And for others who have lost it, like me, to drown our sorrow, let’s raise our elbows! You’ll understand, I don’t have much hair on my head.  But it’s not my choice!  It’s my age that decided this. […]

Are you for or against tattoos? It’s an endless debate between pro and anti. For me, given my dozen tattoos, I am automatically placed in the category of “pro”, although I have many untattooed friends and I don’t force them to get tattooed! Some also say it’s like a drug.  Maybe, but not for all […]
