Speaker: Maybe I'll cancel it. Speaker 2: Then you don't have to- Speaker: Make an appointment for a- maybe in a couple of weeks. Speaker 2: (inc.) Speaker: I'll see my gal at the end of September, so I'd like to go- Interviewer: That's a lot of money, you spend a lot of money on hair. Speaker 2: Most women do.

And uh so, you-know, the gal up the street who um, who does shift work as a waitress at the restaurant at the bottom of the street will knock on the door and say "Cou-- do you mind watching my kid for three hours?" "No problem."

... in our scripts we try to um offer our host suggested adjectives that they can use in describing something, um the gal at um, uh that I work with who hosts uh, our food show, she 's right now, sitting on her sunny porch in Venice-Beach and she's a surfer gal and she- she's always saying "Oh good to go," or "Dude" and "Cool" so she's- she's someone who we definitely have to provide adjectives for, now not because she isn't intelligent, she's a very smart girl, but she can get away with saying that.

... he and Mary wanted to see somebody so they left us and we stayed at the Delta-Hotel right there on the airport and Mar-- Marie knew a p-- ah a gal, from the church, and we visited her, and I can't remember the name of the island, but it's in between ah, Vancouver-Island and British-Columbia, and we went to see her for about ah, three or four days, then we came back, yeah.

Speaker: A good Bianca story! I haven't known her that long! She's a great gal. And look at her the way she goes at her age. Interviewer: Oh yeah it's impressive. Speaker: It's very impressive. Yes. Very friendly lady. I like Bianca.

Speaker: ... but by the way he was the first man to hire a women in the assay office. Interviewer: Oh really? Speaker: Yup. So she was the first gal- besides office work, but he was the- he was- he hired the first female.

Interviewer: But do you remember like what her dress looked like? Speaker: Oh yeah, yeah, big controversy 'cause she wore a short skirt, like her dress was short- Interviewer: Mm. Speaker: It wasn't a long flowing- 'cause she's not a long fluffy kind of gal. Interviewer: Mm-hm. Speaker: Um- and yeah so there was big controversy about the gown, but al-- all the older generation were like, "(Gasps)-"

It's still there but it's not run by the Poles anymore. This gal bought it last year. A couple of years ago.

But anyways I- I just getting off the elevator at the nursing home one day and this gal that I'd known, Tessie, and she had her friend with her.

Speaker: Oh yeah well Kaitlin would know her. Interviewer: Oh yeah. Speaker: Yeah yeah yeah. Kaitlin- Interviewer: She told me all kinds of things. Speaker: Great gal, yeah. Well but ah-

Speaker: He always makes me cry every time he sings at something special. I- I'd love to have Don up here singing that afternoon. Interviewer: Oh yes (inc). Speaker: (Laughs) That would've been the icing on the cake, eh? Interviewer: He just become a grandfather once again so- Speaker: Oh gal. Oh yes, oh my goodness yes (laughs).

Speaker: I think I'm a nervous, anxious person to begin with. Interviewer: Mm-hm. Speaker: Which ah- yeah, I'm not like a go-with-the-flow kind-of gal. Um, of-course you like think about all- like those first three months, you don't know what's going on. You like- you can't see anything. Um, so the unknown and you hear about all these crazy statistic about how like everybody has like miscarriages and-stuff-like-that.

And ah- and ah but ah- before the dinner happened um- I um- this gal, her name is ah Nancy-Pietrus. She lives in- in um Kitchener right now. They moved down there.

And the next year, I w-- had a sweetheart of a teacher, Miss-Sommer, and the next year, I had a little, short, very sharp little gal by the name of Miss-Frances, but she- I liked her, and then I had Miss-Sommer again, that was a break, that was a lucky break. And then in grade ah- in your third- whatever you would called senior third, it was Miss-Peters from Englehart.

Speaker: So to be able to take the treatment here is- is a wonderful thing. Interviewer: So true. Speaker: Mm-hm. And the gal who does it is- is a just a- who runs the- the unit basically is just a gem. Interviewer: Ah. What's her name? Speaker: Her name is Liane. Yeah, Liane-Boderan.

Speaker: Actually I did meet one but she wasn't really a biker. She was on the back of a bike. Interviewer: (Laughs) Speaker: She was a German gal and ah she's working at the Green (inc) and she was riding on the back of Laura-Leveille's bike.

Speaker: My other daughter is living in, um, Round-Lake. And she has a son and is expecting a second child. Interviewer: Oh, yeah, you were saying. Speaker: Yeah, so, um- and she is the gal, Jill, who wants to come by and take a photograph of the apple-trees with herself when she's eight-months pregnant.

So it's rubies and diamonds, which I'm so happy to have, but- and I'm so proud to wear it because I can just imagine some other gal would have worn it, years ago, right? And I- so I don't know anything about it, but I'm now the proud owner, and one my daughters will have it eventually.
