Bear's Etcetera Etcetera

I’m still supporting my wife DJ in her singing and songwriting endeavors and producing videos for her. In addition to her songwriting and music videos, she and a friend co-host a monthly open mic at Tribal Connection Market in Okotoks, Alberta. Me, I’m the sound guy – hey it keeps me out of trouble.

DJ aka Dianne Joy has released her third original song on all major streaming services.

Here's some of the jokes and stories I've received over the years. I still get a chuckle out of them so feel free to pass them on to family and friends. In most cases, I've set them up in both text (PDF) and audio file (mp3) formats.
