CTV.ca | Asian tsunami toll nears 125,000 confirmed dead

And it gets worse and worse. The Humanists Assoc. of Manitoba just made a donation to "Doctors Without Borders " in support of what is going on in the Far East...Tsunami and all. Terrible, just terrible...every day it just gets worse and worse.
You too can donate to this group on-line at www.msf.org
Canada has pledged 40 million while the (in Powell's words) really, really generous USA has pledged 35 million....oh and some troops of course, in case they should want to be democratized at the same time.

For New Years Eve we are going over to the Bertrand's place. There will be ten for dinner and I am sure......plenty of wine. The Bertrand's daughter Danielle is home from old Blighty with her new beau...they go back on Jan 3rd.

It is or has been snowing out! We got 23 (+-) CMS of the white stuff. I had to shovel and shovel and shovel ...just to get the snowblower out! Luckily it fired first crack and away I went up and down the street...did our driveway and the neighbours and 'old George's' because he is a little frail...he still wanted to come out in his PJS and an overcoat to help though! ...grizzled ole fart!, he's just got to be doing something all the time, but he's getting old....not a young bird like me!

I guess Gary and Carol must be in Washington, the land of the new Democratic Governor! How is the weather over there?..snow tires needed in California!
