"What we are looking for is what is looking" ... St. Francis of Assisi

My First Article

Good morning everyone.

Welcome to my little corner of the universe, where I will rant and rave and observe and comment on things that are relevant to my life and surroundings.

It is supposed to rain until next Tuesday, luckily I mowed ¾ of my lawn yesterday. Don’t know if that was a good thing…I could of sold the hay to the women across the street, for her goats. I told her I have 24 old glass milk bottles and 3 tubes of the old paper milk bottle tabs, she said, “how much do you want for them?”. I didn’t answer, I was thinking of trying to get some fresh goats milk.

Hello mom, enjoy your Thursday off from teaching. Too anyone interested in watercolours, check out her site, I have a link over there (and here now), up there, well just look around, I have the same last name as my mother. Yes, I know we have to update it, will get to that soon, once I figureout how this CMS works.

My sister is also setting up her website, about her, some writings and her adventure with raw food. Good Luck, and I mean that…not in any sarcastic way but from the bottom of my heart. Anyone who does anything with conviction gets my thumbs up.

I hope Jeff is doing OK finishing his website, I helped him do the basic design & layout. Of course he is doing OK, when someone only works 4 days a month, he has the time to learn HTML & CSS. If asked he will say that he works more than that, which is probably true, but his actual teaching time adds up to that, or so he said when he was here to visit last November. When he is ready to upload his site I will put a link to his page. He teaches & paints in the traditional style, so you will be able to see his portraits.

Patrick is finally getting the family ‘out east’. Hope he remembers that supper is at suppertime and dinner is at noon, and lunch is something you put in a brown-paper bag. I will not tell him that the Shediac lobster season only starts on the 15th of August, just when he will leaving to go back to Toronto. Lobster of course will be available, probably ones from the season here on the Bay of Fundy, which ends mid-July. As anyone will tell you lobster from the cold Bay of Fundy waters is sweet and good, not like those little ‘canners’ from the warm waters of the Northumberland Strait. I am not trying to start a debate on which area has the best lobster, beacuse personally I will eat scallops anyday over lobster, a lot less work. Maybe I will post my recipe for Panang Tahi. scallops & red peppers in coconut milk with Thai red curry paste, glad I ate breakfast.
Also don’t forget the sun-screen Patrick and remember the best fried clams are at Chez Leo near Gord’s.
Bonne voyage…

Time to do the dishes … well not really, my new house guest, geez I almost wrote house-elf, (maybe that was because I was on the J.K.Rowlings site checking out the Flash) Jean-Pierre, you can call him James, just did them and is now in the process of cleaning the kitchen and living-room floors. That’s what happens when you get up at 6:30 and start setting up your new web-site. How many passwords does someone have to remember to log-in, set up a database, log into that and create a database that requires a new password, on and on and on until finally you get to see this. Well back to James, he plays in Great Balancing Act, does film animation and is just bringing lots of creative energy to the house, which it needs.

I will go into more details about my life as it is now and before, later. Screen break.

    Hi Randy,

    Tonight your site looks like the night sky. What’s a night sky like you doing in a place like this?
    I quit my job today. I used to love naming the colours for the colour company but I’ve found a much better line of work. I do play by play for World Cup Soccer (Football). Now instead of four days’ work a month, I work for a month every four years and it’s nice work too if you can get it.
    ’. . . Sipi’s delinquent package is returned to sender by an uncharacteristically polite Smith whose coach will no doubt be unteaching him to mind his manners especially when he’s on the pitch.’
    Stuff like that. The U.K. guys are way better at play by play than the Canadian hockey counterparts . . .
