Whether you’re Scottish or not, it’s always fun to celebrate Robbie Burns Day on January 25th. The day is to celebrate the life and death of Robert Burns, the national poet of Scotland who wrote such ditties as Auld Lang Syne and Comin’ Thro’ the Rye, the poem which is said to have inspired J.D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye. He is also known for drinking a lot and womanizing even more, and by the time he died at the ripe old age of 37 in 1796, he had fathered nine children.
While there are no formal rules that dictate how you should celebrate Robbie Burns day, the three staples include whisky, poetry, and everyone’s favourite dish — haggis. Haggis is made by combining a sheep’s heart, liver, and lungs with onions, oatmeal, and mutton fat, stuffing it into a sheep’s stomach, and boiling it in stock. The presentation of the dish at the Burns suppers is a dramatic one at that, and often includes a Highland piper leading a parade of chefs with the haggis, and the recital of Burns’ poem Address to the Haggis. The haggis is then slashed open with a sword and a splash of whisky is poured over top. Yum!
Burns suppers can take place any time around the poet’s birthday on January 25th. If you want to bring out your inner Scot be sure to attend Robbie Burns Night!

Robbie Burns Night
Sat. Jan 23 2010
7pm start $12.00 entry — buffet and show
Come out and enjoy a wonderful evening of Highland Dancing preformed by the Mansfield School of Dance and the magnificent sounds of the Haliburton Highlanders Pipes and Drums.
Burns Suppers have been part of Scottish culture for about 200 years as a means of commemorating our best loved bard. And when Burns immortalized haggis in verse he created a central link that is maintained to this day. The ritual was started by close friends of Burns a few years after his death in 1796 as a tribute to his memory. The basic format for the evening has remained unchanged since that time and begins when the chairman invites the company to receive the haggis.

As you might know I’m a Canadian national residing in the United States. I’ve done so for a very long time and so am familiar with American’s idea of ‘extreme’ sports. In my mind it is a given that the Canadians–just take a look at a map of Canada to know why I say this–are a hardy lot. Could the Canadian view of what constitutes an extreme sport be slightly different than their southern counterparts?
Reading about some of the winter fun times that folks in one of the mildest areas of Canada (Southern Ontario) take part in–in this case car racing on ICE reminds me that Canadians have no need to prove how hardy they are. Good times people, good times.

Car Racing on Ice
January 23-24 2010
Ice Racing started in Ontario more than forty years ago, and it continues to thrive as an inexpensive, fun part of the Ontario motorsport scene. The events were originally held on frozen lakes and rivers – and some still are – but in the late seventies, the Ontario championships moved to more permanent facilities at the fairgrounds in Minden, Ontario. The track is laid out, then repeatedly coated with water until a thick layer of ice is built up between the snowbanks that delineate the course. The ice race season starts in mid January and runs until early March, usually consisting of six two-day events.
