    Quite tickled that you liked Due South, one of our most successful Canadian TV productions. He definitely played a cute and quirky Mountie! (Paul Gross, born in Calgary Alberta….and he’s still VERY cute!!!)

    Lol! Cool! Am so glad someone remembers the show, let alone how cute and quirky he was – IS! He’s still cute, then? How do you know? My dad and I used to watch the show all the time – I was quietly devastated when it ended… lol!

    Unending parade of happy birds..
    someone has told the that migration
    was due to happen soon,
    when the high moon.
    So then flew, air biding,
    in unendless parade.
