    Thanks Billie..yeah..you bet. I updated the report as I was a day off on the event. Mind you..they are meeting with Hilary for dinner as we speak! Just like I'm "on board" the trian to seek the Nobel Peace Prize for Pete Seeger...I am also hoping to start/push for a Literature nomination for the Boss! Why not...he writes the American story so well.

    Jeez... I wish these allvoices pics to the left would actually put the pictures of the people you mention in the story up. I didn't relaize Springsteen was a woman! And where did I mention Hilary Duff! :-)
    As for De Niro.....??????

    That's too bad..I always liked Sandra..she stepped up to the plate back in the Boxing Day Tsunami some years ago and donated $1,000,000 before anyone "Jumped" on the bandwagon. Good on her!

    These pyrotechnic fires at night clubs everywhere needs more stringent policing and rules in place! Sad...that people should die when they are out in the evening having fun! :-(

    It'll be my first Christmas up here..so I can't really say. Looks like it could be a good one though! :-) Cold..of course..Brrr!

    Good idea! One time I applied for a grant to create the same kind of busmobile project to visit Native reserves to instill pride and celebration of their culture. Woulda been cool..touring around with a drum & dance troupe in a bus filled up with indigenous lit!

    May the "Schwartz" be with you!

    That's bloody tragic! :-(

    Happiness IS, after all. a warm gun?

    Evidently..the Government is taking its "marching orders" from the Right Wing Christian stitch & bitch Society!

    This is good news..as long as they screen out Asian Bird Flu types..I'm happy!

    Good for you Fireisle..you do a great Public Service with this article!
    Bravo!!

    A dear old friend of mine has finally completed her Herboligist certification. She also grows all her plants on 160 acres outside Smithers and will soon be offering up organic plants & herbs on the internet...stay tuned!
  • Posted By slydog slydog | 1 day ago
    Whew! Quite the harrowing experience!! Good for the kid! Better for the dad! :-)

    Gutsy, Robert...Gutsy...Bravo. I will lay dollars to donuts that everybody will want out by 2012...survaillence by satellite and high-tech drones will attempt to keep Al queda and the Taliban in check. Let the people of Afghanistan sort out their own Political and warlord problems amongst themselves w/o NATO Blood & Treasure being spilt! " Those who do not remember the past; are condemned to repeat it!"
  • Posted By slydog slydog | 1 day ago
    Thanks Billie! This IS a backward step. There was a time under the Liberal Trudeau years when you were allowed possesion of up to 6 plants!
    We are going regressive these days. They think that this kind of legislation deters people from using the plant..when all it does is drive growers into profit. If they raise the penalty for growing it to the simple user..it will force them out of fear to buy elsewhere..like the gangs! Goofy friggin' legislation. These people are beyond reactionary...they are Osteriches..their heads stuck in the sand (or worse places!!) :-)

    It seems to be a world of "Moral Hazard" these days! Isn't bailing out banks for bad behavior a form of this?

    The cartoons are gripping humour.
