MY UNDERWEAR GETS ITS FIRST FRONT PAGE! yes folks, even at 51 life is constantly full of new experiences, because my underwear is on the front page of the Free Press fringe pullout... which for those a long way away, is no small beer around here... in fact, its the biggest beer ... winnipegfreepress/special/fringe/what-rhymes--with-winnipeg-215950901.html ... so i have an actual poem in the Free Press... i never publish anything so its a strange sensation for me ... but i did a version of this nine years ago... and the Ipeggers were extremely nice to me for days, if not years... people said things to me like, "My father read it out to us over Sunday lunch, and we all cried at the end." ... and i will be reading this piece in the show here, which is why i rewrote it ... plus...same day ... ABSOLUTE BINGO!... NEW LATEST MORE BINGO! FOUR AND A HALF STARS... WINNIPEG FREE PRESS "The always reliable Scottish word machine Jem Rolls can be counted on to perform linguistic acrobats at breakneck speed while taunting, chiding and celebrating the world around him. He returns to the land of the iPegs for the 11th consecutive year with his first love poem, the world’s first backstage poem and to mark the billions of words released through WikiLeaks, a poem three letters long. As well he will recite his newest piece, a heartfelt appreciation of the Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival.

And can i also state that responsibility for this misattribution lies with the writer of the letter, and not with the publication ... Personally i think the certain Fringe Festival is very well run And this all rather ruined me morning ...
