To Everything There is a Season....I Guess


This Christmas I decided to give friends a new cd/radio type player for their home It has everything, or so I thought.
When I purchased it I made sure it played cds , the main reason for the purchase. Now this puppy did everything, a AM/FM receiver a cd player and some how even a MP3 player.
I was so proud until they opened the box the darn thing doesn’t play audio tapes, doesn’t play audio tapes!!!!
Sign of the times or should I stop asking Fred Flintstone for advice?
At any rate they were thrilled.

Something Evil This Way Comes


Monday was fun here in Montreal, a dusting of 4cms of snow was predicted. When all was said and done over 25cms covered our island a little opps from Environment Canada.

Tonight into tomorrow we are to receive freezing rain followed by snow followed by straight rain sounds like a dandy day acommin.

Parts of the American North west are getting pounded and according to Chicago radio they are bracing for the same

Guess it’s going to be a white Christmas

Dem poor Noufs



One winter morning a husband and wife in Cornerbrook were listening to the
radio during breakfast. They heard the announcer say, "We are going to have 8 to 10 inches of snow today.. You must park your car on the even-numbered side of the street, so the snowplows can get
through." So the good wife went out and moved her car.

A week later while they are eating breakfast again, the radio announcer said,"We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the odd-numbered side of the street, so the snowplows can get through." The good wife went out and moved her car again.

The next week they are again having breakfast, when the radio announcer says,"We are expecting 12 to 14 inches of snow today. You must park....." Then the electric power went out. The good wife was very upset, and with a worried look on her face she said, "Honey, I don't know what to do. Which side of the street do I need to park on so the snowplows can get through?"

With the love and understanding in his voice, that all men who are married to
good Newfoundland women exhibit, the husband replied, "Why don't you just leave it in the garage this time?"

What's up Dr.



On Tuesday I went to see Dt. Brouillette We went through the regular routine I gave him my blood pressure records which I keep on a fairly regular bases, he weight me (his scale said one at a time please) he checked this and that ordered blood tests and gave me a referral for a colonoscopy.

Then to finish off the appointment he gave me my annual flue shot, he’s a good painless needle giver

Everything was fine till to day when I began to feel dizzy weak in the knees and pretty bad shakes & I am sneezing like a mad man

Is this a reaction to the shot or maybe I’m just getting a cold
