So I tune into the first half of the big series finale of Flashpoint, and
who do I see? Catherine Disher! She's playing the senior person in the
main 911 centre in Toronto.
She's looking good.
And now I've got to run, since I don't want to miss the rest of the episode.

Subject: FKCommentFic Winter Challenge: Bloor Mistletoe Stations
Happy St. Nicholas Day! ~grin~ (December 6.)
The FKCommentFic community (on LiveJournal and/or Dreamwidth) is
holding a casual winter challenge. Any FK fan may play by posting a
commentfic story in response to the prompt at any time through
January 6. Of course the stories may also be cross-posted to
fkfic-l, the AO3 and anywhere else appropriate.
* What is "commentfic"? *
Traditionally, a "commentfic" is a story short enough to fit in a
comment (i.e. reply) on a social journaling website. So, ~100-1000
words: drabbles, ficlets, vignettes -- very short stories of every
stripe. (Amilyn subtitled the community "Bite-Size FK Fic." Pun intended.)
* What is the challenge? *
As you can read in the Toronto Star (just Google it up), the Bloor
Annex Business Improvement Area recently "installed 21 kissing
stations" between Bathurst ST and Spadina AVE. Each station suspends
a red-ribboned bunch of fake mistletoe from a tinsel-bedecked lamp
over a white circle with red text: "Mistletoe Kissing Station
Approved by the Bloor Annex BIA." This decorating effort may draw a
variety of responses: silly, serious, personal, professional... The
challenge: Picture this real initiative in FK's fictional Toronto!
* What are the rules? *
Be polite to your fellow players. Don't get off the topic of FK.
Don't post RPF. Don't chat about the challenge instead of fulfilling
it. Do share feedback! And... that's it. Really. This is a small,
no-stress, no-commitments game, open to every FK character, every FK
faction and every FK fan's own winter traditions.
* Where can I get more information? *
Find the FKCommentFic community on LJ
http://fkcommentfic.livejournal.com/ or on DW
http://fkcommentfic.dreamwidth.org/. You may comment anonymously, or
using OpenID, or -- ideally! -- with DW and/or LJ accounts. If you
have questions about how to sign up for an account on either site,
Greer W. (gwatson2@r.......) has very generously offered to
answer. (Thank you, Greer.)
* Have any stories been posted so far? *
Yep, one: a nostalgic Nick/Natalie piece by Melissa T. on the DW side
of the community. There's no schedule (besides the final deadline of
January 6) so you never know when the next one may turn up.
Come play! Make that next one yours! ;-)

I saw Lisa Ryder in an episode of Heartland a few weeks ago. She looked
the same except her hair was light brown. She played a nearby rancher
who was neglecting her horses.
