There’s a guy on the radio, talking to George Noory about using alcohol for auto fuel. He likes Flex Fuel vehicles. He says that every dollar spent on alcohol fuel is a dollar less aufblasbare spiele going to big oil. (Yum) And a dollar less going to big oil companies is a dollar they can’t spend trying to keep you down.

Do a google search on “The Energy Non Crisis” by Lindsey Williams. Get it, read it.

Yay.

It’s -18˚C / 0˚F, & it sounds a bit windy out there. ((( -30˚C Wind Chill…)))

Yurt: This is a 28 foot yurt that ‘lives’ at the Antrim Flea Market, & Is open every Sunday, year round.

Saturday, I went to see a 32 foot (diameter) yurt in Cumberland, Ontario. The guy who owns it and sells them had his electrical person there, they were fine tuning his electrical system. We talked a bit (I got there late, and didn’t have long to talk, I had to pick up the kids, as this was our weekend to have the kids here. The boy had his usual skiing lesson and the young woman had an unusual skiing lesson with her Mom, Cathi.) I should go grab a photo of a yurt and post it here with this. Yup- I did.

So anyway, I also figured out how to make it look like this with the text wrapped around it. Now let’s hope everything goes well and you can read all this. And  I’m talking to the guy who sells the yurts and the alternate technology stuff about doing something with video.

(((( I think I might leave this text in whatever colour it defaults to. ))))

I’m feeling like we’ll get a couple more parc aquatique gonflable snow storms before Spring warms us all the way through.

Anyway, Happy March! Spring is on the way and my sister Nancy might get something like fifteen inches of snow and blizzard conditions today… hmmmmmm-

And this is our new van. We haven’t given it a name yet, Ben wanted to know whether we should call it the van or the Dodge, or what? So far it’s “The New Van” (luckily, nobody has called it “Morrison” yet…. shudder). I took this photo on Friday, February 27, 2009 (the Day after Aunt Reggie’s Birthday) in the parking lot at Robert Simpson Park (Not related to Bart- I don’t think) Down the hill behind the pile of snow beyond the van is the beach, one of two town beaches. The white stuff you might be able to see aufblasbarer wasserpark back there is snow on top of ice. People drive out on the ice all the time, just not from here, because the town is real good at piling up a nice, tall barrier of white stuff that keeps people from trying to drive vehicles (other than snow mobiles?) down the steepish, winding hill…

—Yum?

“Boooof-“

This is Jassper. He came from Montreal before we first met him in the Gatineau (Quebec) Animal Shelter. He understood both French and English (or rather, ignored commands in both languages) and when he began barking at things out inflatable slide for sale the window, sounding like, “Booof- Booof-” we thought maybe he was barking in French.

-Arnprior, Ontario, Canada, Friday, February 13th, 2009-

Local reporter Peter DeWolf became an ex employee of the Arnprior Chronicle Guide just after telling somebody that the inflatable games newspaper was leaving town.

The newspaper denied that.

Now its office is up for sale.

I wonder if Arnprior needs a blogged newspaper.

Domino (the cat) is staring at me, looking me in the eye, then gazing toward his window perch, venturing a quiet, “marrowwww-” now and then, jumping to the floor and threatening to bite me on the leg if I ignore him.

Re: Canadiana

Jack Layton, head of the ‘NDP’ (new democrats party) was reaming Prime Minister Stephen Harper over the budget’s lack of vision and teeth, and Harper’s lack of ‘leadership’.

Don’t ask me what I think of the concept of ‘leadership’.

The prime minister, Stephen Harper of the conservative bounce house with slide party still doesn’t look the camera in the eye and is threatening to bite me in the wallet if I ignore him.

I would much rather be shipwrecked with Domino than Stephen Harper. (Can I be shipwrecked with Cathi there, too?)

Voodoo ecomomics?

I think all economics are smoke and mirrors- one more tool the would be power elite use to try to control everybody they want to be ‘under their control’.

Doreen Virtue said inflatable obstacle course that Archangel Michael told her that if we ignored the forecasts and bought things as usual, the so-called crisis/recession would be over.

I believe that- I think.

Think positive thoughts and make the make believe recession go away…..
