POST ELECTION BLUES AND MORE PICTURES

Well, the election has come and gone. And with it any hopes for a bright future in our poor little Dominion.

Normally when an election results in a majority government it means stability for he next four years and industry digs in. Unfortunately you elected the wrong party and the stock market has done nothing but plummet since the ballots were counted.

Notice I said YOU. I didn’t vote for them and I told you not to vote for them. I also told you to vote and most of you didn’t.

60% of the eligible voters didn’t vote. Had you gone to the polls and voted for someone other than the Conservatives we .. well never mind.

It’s over, we’re stuck with him, for the next four years.

What have I been doing, beside haranguing the politicians for the last five weeks? Not working that’s for sure. Resting. Trying to recover from those three grueling months of 16 hour days.

Am I going back next month? Not sure. There has been no official announcement that there will be a season seven of Supernatural.

I’ve been; changing my meds, changing doctors. I found a little clinic down the street and have been visiting them. I am feeling better.

Found a couple of games for my computer. I don’t usually play games but these have taken up a lot of my time.

And I found some of my lost pictures. A recovery program brought them out of some obscure file but they were not in order. Nor correctly numbered so I have been sorting them out and I have managed to put together three new pages for you.

Alberta Highway 16

Saskatchewan Highway 16

Saskatchewan Highway 40

As well, I have completed page 12 of jokes that viewers have sent me.

As each page contains a `bakers dozen’ I have decided there will be a `bakers dozen’ pages.
So make page 13 really funny. Send me some jokes that are side splitting laughable.
And all the best to you, and yours, in the forth coming …….

PS: If you are in the Vancouver (the Northern one) area this weekend; Juhli, Redsky, and others, will have their artistic endeavours on display at ~ `Art in the City’ ~ in the West End community Centre - 870 Denman St. Vancouver.

LIBERALS GIVE UP THE GHOST

Well I suppose all the Conservative followers are happy today. A Conservative, majority, Government.

And of course the Conservatives are gong to go around boasting of how much the people love them and want them. When the truth is that they were the lesser of 2 evils. Look how many seats the Liberals lost.

The conservatives didn’t win, the only other, viable, parity lost worse than they did the last election.

It’s like I said before the election, if either of the lesser parties had picked a new leader, and some new policies, they probably would have won.

But isn’t that true of all elections in Canada. People don’t vote for who they want, because there is never anyone running who the people want. Its always a question of voting for the one they dislike the least.

THE POLLS ARE OPEN

I put on my rain gear and went to the polls.

No, I didn’t vote for one of the big 3.

If you stay home one of the big three will get in.

They will get in with a small margin and claim that the people would have voted for them but because of the bad weather no one went to the polls.

However if you go to the polls and vote for an unknown, it will be a vote against the big three.
The person you vote for won’t get in but it will keep the vote count high so the big three can’t claim the people would have voted for them.

Look at the ballot and avoid; the Conservatives, the Liberals, the NDP.

Vote for anyone else.

Every vote is your voice being heard by Ottawa.

Make them listen.

Vote against them.

Then, maybe, next election they will come out with a new leader and new policies, and actually giving us a reason to vote for them.

So, put on your parka, pick up your bumbershoot, and walk to the polls.
