To the good-looking guy at a home store in Dartmouth Crossing. I was looking for a paint person to help me decide on what paint to get for my stained ceiling. You stopped and asked me what I needed since I was freaking out because the store was closing. Even though it wasn't your department, you said you help receiving with the night crew. Thank you so much for your help and for taking the time to bring what I needed to my cart. You are such a sweet cute person with a nice sexy accent. Hope to see you again. You mentioned a party or fundraiser Saturday but I didn't take any details, I wil support whatever you do and love to show up. Please comment if you see my posting. —The Ceiling Paint Girl Who Loved Your Hat

What did we start? A huge raging inferno of desire that's becoming as confusing as it is satisfying. I don't think I can let go now that you've got such a hold of me. I don't know where this will lead us eventually, but for now I'm enjoying the ride. This week will be so difficult but I'm determined not to cave in first... Let's just see how long it takes before the itch becomes unbearable. —Girl with the Broken Halo

We met March 2009 in the early afternoon, I bought beer and walked by to my place on Brunswick Street. You are an amazing and resilient woman. You shared with me some sad times, like being in prison (jail time for a number of years), surviving breast cancer after a double mastectomy, the scary news you so bravely told me about your current health status. When you told me your age and asked me mine, I said "take a guess," you did and I didn't have the heart to disagree with it, but your response was so delightful to see, you laughed, smiled so much and said, "That's the first time I guessed someone's age and got it right."

Despite being hurt and let down by others, what you've been through and are going through health-wise, you are keeping a wonderful outlook and positive attitude in life, and I've learned so much in those brief hours that afternoon.

I'd so love to reunite before it's too late. I'm writing this because maybe some of this could help me.

She is a mother, and she did leave a number for me, I may have misdialed three years ago, but was so shocked when it wasn't her on the other end. We connected on a level that even the best Hollywood movie could ever dream of coming up with. So I google the number and I did get out the fact that the owner's name started with the letter "A". I now realize the fact that with her being 50 now, and her health factor that if she did leave me a number that was not her's, maybe she didn't want to burden her health on me, and to move on in life maybe without her, even as a friend which is what I wanted anyway.

Please could you bring some insight people? I'm presently making YouTube videos sharing this story and hopefully it'll go viral. This is an honest, truthful letter of love indeed. Take care all. —Woohaw

Just wanted to say thanks to the girl who stopped on Thursday afternoon when my car broke down by the mall. I was in a tough jam and you really helped me out. Thanks again. You rock. —Busted Clutch

Halifax's alFresco filmFesto is back baby! While I'm not overly-pleased with the choice of movies, I still vividly remember the good times had last year and definitely plan on supporting this cause. I'm not overly please because the subtle theme last year felt like "nostalgia" movies for parents or new adults that you've perhaps seen before but haven't in years, and are likely previously unseen for any kiddies that go. Charlie and Alice seem too fresh/new...still, I will be attending most regardless.

FYI, my lineup (which as I understand would be based on release date and consideration of a family environment):

1. Cry-Baby (this is EXACTLY the type of movie that should be shown...cheesy, ridiculous comedy all the way)
2. Edward Scissorhands
3. Benny and Joon (classic)
4. What's Eating Gilbert Grape
5. Ed Wood (nice Bill Murray tie in BTW)

Shame Fear and Loathing, Nightmare on Elm Street or Blow couldn't make the list. What can ya do? —zZz Can't Wait

I know my past you were there in everything I've done you are the one. —May

Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight, are you sorry we drifted apart? Does your memory stray to a bright summer's day, when you kissed me and called me sweetheart? —Nova Scotia Sunshine

Congratulations and thanks for not demolishing the Glebe House. It proves that this kind of preservation of important historic buildings can indeed be done if the will is there, difficult and cost-prohibitive though it is. It is well worth it in terms of maintaining the unique character of our city. Good luck with the rest of the development. —Cycle Mom

A, it was a short fun time, I loved every nanosecond of it; hope someday to make you need a towel again... —D Moon

I spent along time sitting watching life fly by and yes it was boring, not to mention loveless.I would like to make the leap but I'm afraid that by admitting my true feelings for this person I would be shooting myself in the foot. I am very lonely and long to be held. At least now I can imagine myself in a man's arms. Maybe I'm not such a bad person after all. Thank you for the luck. Lord knows I need all of the luck I can get. So far this year's been hell. —Ozzy
