<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="xMainBold14" SIZE="14" COLOR="#FFFFFF" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0"><B>(Thursday, July 2, 2009) A nationwide pighunt is underway for Pinky the Rock 95 Pig. It vanished yesterday around noon when it broke the rope attaching it to the ground. Witnesses last saw the pig heading in a northeast direction. Rock 95's General Manager Doug Bingley issued a heartfelt, emotional plea "I love that pig" and then confirmed a $1,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the safe return of the pig. Pinky is 16 feet long, pink, and was manufactured by the same company that built the giant pig for Pink Floyd. In fact, there are only two such pigs in existence. The company said when a call comes in about this kind of pig, they know it's either Rock 95 or Roger Waters calling.</B></FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT><br><br>

The Flying Lanterns lift to extreme heights and can drift for long distances until the flame goes out. Because of their uncontrolled and unpredictable flight path, the lanterns can land on trees, building rooftops, or other combustible materials while still burning, potentially causing a fire." The Ontario Fire Marshalls Office has requested that the “Flying Lanters” be taken off the Market in Canada.

<b>Man's best friend.</b><br>

I dog sat yesterday, haven't had a pet in 23 years or so. I forgot how much I missed having a dog.
Instantly the dog and I clicked, and I became his best friend for the day.
I had a short nap in the day...when I woke up my wife and son, who should love me more than anyone else next to my parents, generally ignored me.
The dog acted like we were long lost friends and I was overseas for 5 years. It was a nice feeling.
Dogs love you no matter who you are, no matter what you did. They are unbelievably loyal.
I forgot that feeling.
When the owners picked him up, he was happy to see them. But I could sense he wanted me to come with him. I live right next door so it's not a big deal. But I was a little sad. I realize how special having a dog can be.

<b>When Pigs Fly...</b><br>
<b>Last Updated:</b><i>2009-07-02 07:59:18.0</i><br><br>
Well I hope you had a WONDERFUL Canada Day celebration yesterday!
You KNEW it had to happens sooner or later. The ROCK 95 Pink Floyd replica flying pig left home yesterday during Canada Day celebrations. I just didn't think it would happen SO soon. The pig became loose of it's tether, and majestically floated away (last seen in Barrie heading east over Kempenfelt Bay). Reports would later come in seeing it flying over the Beaverton area.
Doug was so happy with his acquisition of the rare flying pig , and you'd think that all precautions would be put in place to safeguard it's flight schedules, but somehow, the giant helium-filled swine managed to slip it's knot and float off into the night!
He was a good pig, and will be sorely missed. I have a feeling this is not the END of the story however. If it is recovered from some far distant part of the region, I can only imagine it will come in the form of a giant piece of exploded plastic! Stay tuned for details!

I love the 95 Days of Summer for soo many reasons. . .
One reason to love summer is outdoor festivals! Big Music Fest was awesome. Probably the best performance from The Hip I've seen, they must have played for 2.5 hours!
I walk into our office here at Rock95 earlier today, noone was around. It seems like everyones on holiday this week.
It's just a laid back summer-time kinda week. Which is very fitting as we should focus on celebrating our great country's 142nd birthday!!
Saturday June 27th Canada's Neil Young played to thousands at London's Hyde Park. He launched into the epic Sgt. Pepper closer when a surprise guest named Paul McCartney came out to join...

<b>Big Music Fest it was!</b><br>
<b>Last Updated:</b><i>2009-06-29 08:08:33.0</i><br><br>
For a music fan, I'm not sure anything is better than a summer outdoor music concert festival. So it was in Wiarton on Saturday for Big Music Fest '09 marking its inaugural opening with The Tragically Hip, Sam Roberts Band, Arkells and the Spades.
The weather was perfect, the crowd relaxed and in a festival mood, and as the day wore into evening the venue kept filling and filling, until close to 20,000 people had arrived across the runways and into the open field of the Wiarton Airport to join in the celebration of some down-home musical Canadiana. At one point, the national anthem broke out among the crowd!
The Sam Roberts Band is great live adding musical flare and extended guitar riffs on a lot of their hit material, and the Tragically Hip are, well, the Tragically Hip. Gord Downie still sounds great!
The only disappointment may have been the venue being a bit too long and narrow so if you weren't one of the first 10,000 in, you were way far back.

No ugly, graphic, or painful step in her struggle to get well was left out. It shon a light on a rare form of cancer.
