unruly ... notruly |
I am a Toronto-based writer and editor who is ridiculously fond of books and art and music and whiskey and stormy weather and swimming and running and typewriters and the colour green and run-on sentences and bad swears. (Especially bad swears.) I own and operate www.unruly.ca, where I write about art and craft and design and music and books and the act of making, amongst other topics, and sometimes publish the writings of others, too. I think you should read my blog and submit to it too — both words and images are sought and loved. G'wan. You know you want to. |

Notes
Old VW bus ad. Text reads:
What is it?
Glad you asked. It’s a Volkswagen Station Wagon. Don’t pity the poor thing. It can take it. It can carry neatly a ton of anything you can afford to buy. Or 8 people (plus luggage) if you want to get practical about it.
And there’s more than one practical consideration. It will take you about 24 miles on a gallon of regular gas. It won’t take any water or anti-freeze at all; the engine is air-cooled. And even though it carries almost twice as much as regular wagons, it takes four feet less to park.
What’s in the packages?
8 pairs of skis, the complete works of Dickens, 98 lbs. of frozen spinach, a hutch used by Grover Clevland, 80 Hollywood High gym sweaters, a suit of armor, and a full sized reproduction of the Winged Victory of Samothrace.
