Two very important things to remember this Mardi Gras! #1 - Eat too many pancakes today - it's the law; and #2 - Pack up all your unwanted Canadian Tire money and send it along to Corin Raymond (or to CJSR and we will forward it) to help make history - namely, making a CD using Canadian Tire money! I wonder if Corin is just trying to get his face on that money!
Thanks for listening to CJSR and Put R in D for Dangle!
