		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes a person just has to stop and smell the flowers. Life speeds by and if we don&#8217;t take the time to at least look around, we are going to miss it all. This summer it seems especially true for some reason. Life has been pretty hectic since our return from our winter hiatus. Visiting far off places has always been intriguing to me and always will. I love to meet people of different cultures and visit historical sites. Places that you have seen in the movies are especially interesting even if they don&#8217;t quite measure up to their movie set image. But there comes a time when you have to stop looking over the fence and start grazing in your own pasture. My wife and I worked hard while we raised the kids. We still managed to get our fix of travel by way of a motor home back in the 90&#8242;s. It was an older model but got us to where we wanted to be. We moved from Edmonton to Calgary so that we could be closer to the mountains and the border. It was quicker on a weekend to just drive a few hundred miles (or just [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Can you tell a “Protester” from an “Anarchist”? Do protesters have a responsibility to restrain anarchists? Do “Labour” groups want to share the stage with these criminals? I watched yesterday morning and listened to Ken Georgetti, President of the Canadian Labour Congress, speak to the media and speak of a peaceful demonstration. The CLC along with groups such as the Ontario Federation of Labour, the Council of Canadians, Greenpeace, Oxfam, and the Canadian Federation of Students had planned a legitimate demonstration to protest and demonstrate and get their message across to the G-8/G-20 participants. The peacefulness soon left. It is a democratic right of all Canadians to assemble and protest issues or concerns held by a group. But where there is a “Right” there is a “Responsibility”. If a group organizes a demonstration or protest they have an obligation to the citizens and community in which they wish to conduct their demonstration or protest. I watched in anger as the turmoil unfolded before our eyes. I watched a group of Anarchists assume control of the demonstration and reek havoc on a Canadian city and it’s citizens, shop owners and police force. When I watch these arrogant, know it all deviants [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A man in an Arizona supermarket tries to buy a half a head of lettuce. The very young produce assistant tells him that they sell only whole heads of lettuce.  The man persists and asks to see the manager. The boy says he&#8217;ll ask his manager about it. Walking into the back room, the boy said to his manager, &#8220;Some asshole wants to buy half a head of lettuce.&#8221; As he finished his sentence, he turned to find the man standing right behind him, so he added, &#8220;And this gentleman has kindly offered to buy the other half.&#8221; The manager approved the deal, and the man went on his way.  Later the manager said to the boy, &#8220;I was impressed with the way you got yourself out of that situation earlier. We like people who think on their feet here. Where are you from, son?&#8221; “Canada, sir,&#8221; the boy replied. &#8220;Well, why did you leave Canada?&#8221; the manager asked. The boy said, &#8220;Sir, there&#8217;s nothing but whores and hockey players up there.&#8221; &#8220;Really?&#8221; said the manager. &#8220;My wife is from Canada.&#8221; No kidding, replied the boy. &#8220;Who&#8217;d she play for?

		<description><![CDATA[Every now and again a person appears on the scene who is so arrogant, self centred and mean spirited that they make “Evil” sound like a good thing to be. Ann Hart Coulter is one of those people. Born in New York City on December 8th 1961, Ann got educated and pissed off at the world all at the same time. Ann despises anyone politically left of Ronald Reagan, any religion other than Christianity, any Country other than the USA, and any skin colour other than white. Ann loves to ridicule people with less means than her, with less privilege than her and has absolutely no compassion towards anyone who is not in a position to do something for her. Ann Coulter has shown distain for the men and women who maintain the freedom that allows her to be such a bitch, she was fired from MSNBC when she told the president of the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation, himself a disabled Vietnam veteran, &#8220;No wonder you guys lost.&#8221; She was fired from the conservative National Review when she turned in a column offering a final solution to the Muslim problem: &#8220;We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For travellers to the States, when trying to get gas at a service station, and the pump asks for your zip code, and you are frustrated with having to go in and pay cash or leave your credit card at the counter, the following works with a Visa credit card and probably will with others. Take your postal code, delete the letters, use the numbers only and add two zeros to the end and enter it as a 5 digit zip code. Example: Our Postal code T5A 4J3, converts to 54300.  Works everywhere I tried it.  You might want to pass this on to anyone going south.  (Most useful in California, Arizona and New Mexico.) I thank the gas attendant at a Safeway gas  station  in Casa Grande, AZ for this info. Share on Facebook]]></description>
