Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | October

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | October By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans.  I hope everyone has figured out their Halloween costume and is ready for a self-induced sugar coma.  Those candy Mellowcreme pumpkins always do it for me!  P.S…Not sure if I can use that in the beginning of my column, but I’m rolling with it!  We are 6 days out till my birthday. I hope everyone has their

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross – September

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross – September By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans. First off, congratulations to Team Canada on a great showing at the Motocross of Nations at Mantova MX in Mantova, Italy.  Hats off to Tyler Medaglia, Dylan Wright, and Jake Piccolo on their awesome performances.  Well done, gentleman!   This month’s column piggy backs last month and was also inspired by a question from the author of Atomic Habits

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | August

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | August By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans, Time is an interesting subject.  It depicts the past, present, and future.  We plan and arrange events in our schedules based on how much time we think we have.  We measure how much time it will take to pursue a goal or how long it will take to complete a task.  We figure out the controllable variables, get to

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans! Only 21 weeks and 4 days till Christmas! Random, I know, but seriously this year is flying by!  Here is something that is not random.  It is a word used in the form of a noun or adjective and is a constant in every individual’s life on a daily basis.  This word, in my opinion is significantly underrated.  Drum roll, please,

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | Father’s Day

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | Father’s Day By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans! Not only is it twelve days before I usually submit my column, I managed to get the finishing touches compiled before Father’s Day!  My Grandfather would be so proud of me right now.  He must be grinning in his columbarium.  He was the type of guy that would tell you to meet him for dinner at 5pm. He’d be there at 4pm and

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | May 2021 By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans! First off, I’m pumped for all of my Canadian homies!  So stoked Canada is opening back up!  Hope you all get back in action doing all the things that you enjoy!  Cheers! Maya Angelou once said, ”I’ve learned people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | April

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | April By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, humans! I started writing this from 35,000 feet altitude. Shout out to Delta for the safe flight and Biscoff cookies.  Gluten is something I usually avoid, but I’ll take the inflammation for two of those scrumptious things.  Happy that my fingers didn’t swell up, I picked up my pen, grabbed my notebook and started writing about the last 72 hours. 

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, humans. As a kid I always loved going to Chinese buffets for sweet and sour chicken and fortune cookies. Not much has changed. Except, my interpretation of the fortune in the cookies. This one particularly piqued my interest. What happens when you do wish to see the best in others, give them your best, only to have them show you

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | February | The 5 P’s

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | February | The 5 P’s By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans! Today, I’m sweating bullets; literally and figuratively.  I’m on the way home from the first round of the Kenny Yoho I-4 MX Series and it was 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 degrees Celsius for my Canadian friends.) Figuratively, it’s February 28 and my column is just now receiving the final Midas touch. Talk about slipping in under

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross – January 2021

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross – January 2021 By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans!  I like to think I could pass for the Energizer Bunny’s sister.  Everyday I’m revved up and ready to go get it, and I barely drink any coffee!  If I do, it’s half-caf!  Some of us naturally have the personality of a crackhead, and need to monitor our caffeine consumption!  To me, everyday might as well be a new year filled
