Original Toronto Star caption: . . . I always do my best, says Jim Reed, co-host of CTV's W5 and father of Jesse, 8, left, and Adam, 5. I try to spend a lot of time with my boys doing things with them that my father didn't do with me because he was too busy. We bicycle, we work in the garden and we do a lot of reading together, says the low-key journalist who joined the public affairs show in 1972. [Incomplete]

It still goes against my grain to spend an enormous amount on clothes, says Mary Lou Finlay, one of the three hosts of Live It Up on CTV. But I've got to be conscious of what I wear on the job

Shopping: Norman Browne spends about $15 a week for rent and $8 for food. I don't eat rich or fancy, but tend towards a simple, meaty, varied menu. I like creative cooking and my pride and joy is cooking up a pot of pork hock stew. I'd give out the recipe but you've got to be poor to appreciate it.

Last summer, he sold encyclopedias. This summer, university student Mark Dingman is selling himself - as the first prize in an unusual raffle. Dingman 21, of Toronto, has decided to raffle himself - or more precisely, 16 hours of his time - to make money for school. I wanted to run my own business. This took minimum capitalization and had minimal risk, should it fail, said Dingman, a McGill University student. And it seems like a good skill to learn, to sell yourself. Dingman is going door-to-door with his Student Slaves raffle and a very professional pitch. Tickets go for $1.99 each (or three for $5) and there are 200 in each draw. The first raffle is scheduled for Tuesday and the winner gets Dingman for 16 hours to do anything from cleaning ovens to fixing eavestroughs.

Richard Burke, ex-assistant to Senator Kennedy: I'm not saying there's not parts of my life I loved, It was exciting. But his influence obviously had a lot to do with the fact I got involved with the drugs.
