I saw this photo a while ago on the internet … someone had taken a modern photo of this location as it looks like today. It’s special to be able to stand and look at a location that was once inhabited by so many generations of humans. It makes one realize just how little time we spend in this reality we call life.
During this time of year (holiday season) … mine is fruitcake … the darker, heavier, thicker - the better for me. But only as a treat once in a while, otherwise I’d end up with diabetes by New Years. My mom used to make her own basic recipe this time of year.
There is a supplier in Canadian stores from the east coast that I like … McFadgen’s Bakery in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia … they make a variety and the best to me is the deep dark brown cake.
The other food we’ve enjoyed that we learned about from our Italian friends is … Panettone … which local stores used to supply with great big cakes this time of year but over the past three or four years, the supply is less and the cakes are smaller. Toasted with a bit of a butter was always a treat.
Cozy winter weather? … we got about two feet of accumulated snow here in northern Ontario and last night it was -25 C
It’s not so cozy when you start worrying about what will happen if the power goes out.
German salesman slapping the side of the car … ‘This baby can dive to 20,000 leagues under the sea’
Are you sure that’s a ‘swimming wagon’ … it looks more like a ‘diving wagon’ that’s headed for the bottom of the lake

Slow and steady wins the race
Is this the vehicle that radicalized women?
Which side of the battle front was this?
In extreme cold weather … it’s nice to have a facemask on. I wouldn’t want to wear it on a hot July afternoon tho.
Let’s build an ICBM … it can kill everyone in an entire city
Wow, that’s crazy
Yeah, let’s build a few hundred of these things just to make sure
Replaced my lawn with clover … now it’s always green no matter the weather (even now under a foot of snow, it’s still leafy green) … and several times in the summer, the flowers bloom and the bees visit them. Over the years, I keep planting wild flowers around the edges of the lawn. Not much there but I keep expanding it every year.
After parking the bike and turning off the motor: … HEY! … HEY YOU THERE!!! … YEAH YOU!!! … CAN YOU MOVE OVER TO THE RIGHT SO I CAN SHOOT YOU!!! … THANKS!!!
Native women are as tough as most men. We were scared of my mom but she was also the most loving person you would ever meet. She could hunt, fish, trap and carry things as much as any man … watching her skin, hide and butcher large animals and you’d swear she had arms of Popeye. Both my sisters are the same and if you ever get caught in a fight with them, they’d beat the hell out of you as much as any man.
Everything works out in the end
If it hasn’t worked out, it’s not yet the end
Unless they were given an immaculate fare
The kid in the fez hat: I know a family that would have needed one of those in Nazareth 1,928 years ago
