Fifty four shopping days till Christmas, Now that's scary

Coach’s Corner

Tonight there was a sad but special Canadian moment. Tonight the CBC home of Don Cherry and The Beachcombers presented the Gemini Awards. Now the Geminis are the Canadian equal to…… well I’m sure there must be something.
The show was hosted by that Canadians left wing nutcase George Stroumboulopoulos. It went on nasium for a tad over sixty minutes, with the big winner being Corner Gas.
I am as proud as punch to be a Canadian, but this show was sad sad sad.
The only thing missing was a writing credit to Wayne & Shuster.
The highlight of the evening was when the “Peoples” choice award went to Howie Mandell who hasn’t seen the inside of Canada since he last did the Canadian version of Deal or No Deal.
Nothing says Canada like being able to honor Canada’s best in sixty minutes
In typical CBC style it was followed by a RERUN of that Canadian nail biter The Dragons.
Kudos however do go out to those who showed class by wearing a poppy.

Groan

A tour guide was showing a tourist around Washington, D.C. The guide pointed out the place where George Washington supposedly threw a dollar across the Potomac River.

"That's impossible," said the tourist. "No one could throw a coin that far!"

"You have to remember," answered the guide. "A dollar went a lot farther in those days."

Moffat Revisited

Yesterday was magic. After somewhere between 35 & 40 years I met and broke bread with my cousin Brian & his wife.
They picked me up around twelve and we headed to the Barbies Restaurant in Dorval, but Jenny and I were yacking and we flew by the 55th Ave exit.
Long story made short we dinned at Le Baton Rouge on St. Jean.
The food was delicious but the company ……better.
Now we are talking about a Bussey Family reunion

Coronation Street

I like politics, I truly do. Federal politics, provincial politics (Quebec’s the best in the nation)

The “funfest” part of our democratic system however is question period. Grown men & women bantering back and forth is amazing. If they fail in politics I see no reason why they couldn’t win a Gemeni for their performances. There is yelling and screaming and almost as entertaining as Corner Gas.

Bored some afternoon, give it a watch just try to remember that we are paying more then seven dollars a day for this day care/

So, after carefull consideration I now know why that when the government presents there up coming agenda, it’s referred to as .......... The Speech From the Throne

Tell me Where it Hurts

A man went to visit his doctor. "Doctor, my arm hurts bad. Can you check it out please?" the man pleads.

The doctor rolls up the man's sleeve and suddenly hears the arm talk. "Hello Doctor," says the arm, "could you lend me twenty bucks please? I'm desperate."

The doctor says, "Aha! I see the problem. Your arm is broke!"

What Receipt ??

Good day
Most of you or maybe 99.776333% of you know that I’ve worked retail for over thirty years. After about five years I realized that I could write a book on my experiences. How to write a book I have no idea BUT I was alerted to this site (via a Gazette article sent to me by Dave (my brother) )
You won’t believe what you are about to read.
I must also say however many of the people I served were wonderful caring human beginnings.

76 Shopping Days Till Christmas

Ok now first it is Thanksgiving week–end in Canada, the holiday isn’t celebrated in the U.S. till some weeks from now. I believe that in some form Thanksgiving is observed elsewhere in the world, although it may not be called Thanksgiving
But I digress. Blessing come in many forms, some small and some large. Good health, family, and a job are huge opportunities to give thanks. So is as well not having to be hungry in the morning is, in itself a reason to offer quiet praise.
We are so busy these days that we are blinded to that which we have.
This week-end after you have counted your blessings, count them again make sure you didn’t miss any.
May your day be blessed with family and huge plates of turkey and grandmas stuffing as well as that Oceanspray cranberry jelly with the funny can lid marks on each end from IGA.
May your pumpkin pie be oven warm, cooled by sweet whipped cream and a hot cup of coffee.
Friends Happy Thanksgiving, God bless you all.
Go ahead loosen your belt, and Go Als go !!

The Butler Did It

A wealthy couple had planned to go out for the evening. The woman of the house decided to give their butler, Jeeves, the rest of the night off. She said they would be home very late, and that he should just enjoy his evening.

As it turned out, however, the wife wasn't having a good time at the party, so she came home early, alone. Her husband had to stay there, as several of his important clients were there. As the woman walked into her house, she saw Jeeves sitting by himself in the dining room. She called for him to follow her, and led him into the master bedroom. She then closed and locked the door. She looked at him and smiled.

"Jeeves," she said. "Take off my dress." He did this carefully.

"Jeeves," she continued. "Take off my stockings and garter." He silently obeyed her.

"Jeeves," she then said. "Remove my bra and panties." As he did this, the tension continued to mount. She looked at him and then said, "Jeeves, if I ever catch you wearing my clothes again, you're fired!"
