Well, first, we’ve just had a few fairly significant national events happen which should supercede anything else; Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party of Canada won the federal election with a Conservative opposition; the former PM Stephen Harper has resigned as leader of the Conservative party. Justin Trudeau has also, as his first major act […]
Lets face in, these are trying times for entrepreneurs, writers, journalists, artists, and folks in general. I’ve been fortunate (I guess??) to have been turned into a cartoon character of sorts by those I interact with most frequently; it was Doctrine Man!! Who gave me the call sign Doctrine Dominatrix after he assigned me to […]
This may be the first year in a long time that I can send gifts, and this has me very excited. I’ve been doing a lot of journaling lately and several ideas have struck me, such as fabric covered personalized journals and pens. I cut up my too peacock-y pink hijab and am using it […]
The article entitled Cigarette butts removed from harbour grabbed my attention this morning because of my research involving cigarette butts as a commodity.

Said individual remains suspicious of me despite the fact that I’ve offered nothing but support and solid information to, and so it leads to this post. If you wish for me to work […]
This is an artist’s depiction of Isaac Umbauch, Stony Plain’s first mayor and Sherrif. During his tenure he chained CN Rail’s trains to the track for nonpayment of rent, built the first jail (using his basement originally; I used to play in his house) and built the first one-room schoolhouse. There’s a statue […]
I started a video chat room on a free webcam/camblogging site which traditionally caters to the ever increasing demand for free sex. Granted, as real estate goes, I probably could have found a better site for hosting purposes, but I’m not so sure about that. http://www.onwebcam.com/PrivateCandy35#broadcast After all, if I am going to work in […]
