I don't know how the third world war will be fought, but I do know that the fourth one will be fought with sticks and stones...

Rad Renos at the Reh-fit....
We went to a gala meeting ..press conference, Thursday at the Reh-fit Centre. It was beauuutiful, they had a band, food, wine, desert thingis..... and an announcement. The Re-fit centre has found an ANGEL...a rich angel. He announced that he will match dollar for dollar any contributions, including Fed, Prov, civic monies, up to and including 3..three...3...three million dollars! Apparently the government money is in place. And the icing on the cake is that the money is above board and we didn't have to threaten to leave Canada to get it! We shall have our new Centre! All reno's to the tune of 6 millions. Woo-hoo. Larger track, new aerobics centre, new locker rooms, saunas, restaurant, lounge, balconies, parking, 2 entrances and elevators of course. Apparently, and this is the first time that I heard this story, this angel...PAUL was running around the track about 10 years ago when he collapsed, his heart went into fibrillation and he had no pulse....the trained staff (Doctors and nurses) ran to his aid and he survived. And after being a member for that many years, he is repaying the Centre. Hell, I think that the government should pay for the whole thing....but they don't think in 'preventative' ways, only 'reactive' ways...they wait until you are sick to spend money on your health!
Give your head a shake.....
There was an article in the Winnipeg Free Press on Sat. March 6th, 2004 about The St. Maurice Catholic School and their debate team. It seems that the debate team was to be involve in a debate on gay-marriage. The school decided that the team was not going to be allowed to speak on the 'pro' side, that is in favour of gay-marriage but they were going to be allowed to speak on the 'anti' side...against gay marriage. It's like "Don't confuse me with the facts...I have my mind made up!" Ironically, another article in the WFP on the same day told of a symposium at Churchill High School about Respect and tolerance of others. It even included a speaker that addressed the problem of homophobia in today's society.
William Wordsworth:
Written in Early Spring
I heard a thousand blended notes
While in a grove I sate reclined,
In that sweet mood when pleasant thoughts
Bring sad thoughts to the mind.
To her fair works did Nature link
The human soul that through me ran;
And much it grieved my heart to think
What Man has made of Man.
Keep on blogging.......
