He was born a Canadaphiliac with Syndactyly, the victim of a Tympanostomy and is considered a modern Scapegrace by all accounts.Such a pain and little devil as he was, his parents had a harness constructed of leather that worked as a method of keeping him from taking off into the neighbourhood. The harness was connected to a rope, which was in turn connected to the overhead clothesline. Thus, he could have free rein of the yard, only limited by the length of rope and his imagination. Admit it, you’ve seen dogs with the same arrangement.Not yet sufficiently scarred by the trauma of the harness and clothesline, Jeff managed to achieve an unheard level of mediocrity in local sports & education while a teenager, but excelled in truancy and calling out the hypocrisy of the adults he came in contact with.Without finding his calling as soon as perhaps his peers did, he graduated Grade 12, went to college, returned to high school to complete and graduate Grade 13 and entered Acadia University in his freshman year as the only person in residence legally old enough able to buy beer.After running his own consulting firm in downtown Toronto, he headed south to work in the USA. Working the 1990s dot-com boom hard, he managed to create a career and environment where a return to a career in Canada & attaining a “Canadian” living wage was possible.Returning to the Toronto lasted only a decade before throwing in the towel cleared the way for Jeff & Tina to relocate to a relatively quaint and quiet small town in Prince Edward County.Read more about this authorRead less about this author
