ELECTION 200?
When Stevie, and his coalition partner Iggy decide to calls an election I plan on writing “MURDERS” on my ballot because of the House of Commons & National Medias’ Cover-ups!
You notice over the summer how politicians have all been hiding. The Liberals have said to be talking to Canadians. Non have talked to me. I know the Republicans will never talk to me.
The NDP (or what ever they may end up calling themselves) like wise have not talked to me.
Well I… Continue

When you approach Harold Blank's van be sure to smile. It wears 2,000 cameras and most of them work.
He roams throughout North America - Europe too - and secretly, I think, photographs people who stare dumstruck at his camera-covered van.
I bumped into Harold's van at a rest stop on Interate 5 in Southern California, but I couldn't find him for an interview, even though I sat near by for close to an hour.
I know about Harold… Continue

He was somewhat nervous because those nasty Clanton brothers recently rode into town and Wyatt is being paid $2.50 a month to keep the streets of Tombstone, Arizona quiet and peaceful.

Wyatt (in the pretty pink cravat) was aware of the… Continue

Travelswithlefty
I left Guelph, Ont. on Sept. 1/08 and headed east. When I collided with the Atlantic I turned right and followed that shoreline around to Prince Rupert - then back across Canada. I got home in early July.

lost garden
Anyone got ideas on how to stop a neighbour from digging out my plants and shrubs and putting them in her own garden -other than locking the gate (which I finally did)?
I saw her walking off with a rose bush, and she denies taking it.
We are supposedly good friends and neighbours! ??? but I have put hundreds of dollars and thousands of plants in my yard, and there is nothing left except a few twigs.
