I just received the "Wine Spectator" on line. It lists various wines, the good/bad, the expensive/cheap, etc. The pick of the month was a wine from S. Africa called "Goats do Roam" in Villages. "At $13.00 US it is a solid, modern-style wine here, with dark, racy blackberry and boysenberry fruit, ample toast and cocoa notes, and a long, plush, fruit-filled finish. Solid acidity keeps it all honest too. Delicious. Shiraz and Pinotage. Drink now through 2006. 12,000 cases made." Its a hoot. I'll have to get a bottle for when we get invited to our friend's place for dinner, both are kind of 'wine snobs'. For me 3:oo PM is a "fine year"! And I love any wines from "Chateau Fond du Lac" (Castle at the bottom of the lake) bwahahahaha.
I hate to think about the spring because (1) the ground was soaked from last summer and can't hold much more water and, (2) we have 5 times the amount of snow on the ground now as usual (we have 49 cms now as compared to 10 cms in a normal year). This could mean flooding if we get an 'instant' spring, espceially if we get more snow.
Looks like a wolf near Saskatoon picked off a person standing in line at a boxing week sale .....OK it was actually a few miles away at Key Lake mine, and the guy was jogging. It is unusual for a wolf to attack a humans like that so they figure it must have been rabid. The guy had to go for stitches and 50 (!) rabies injections. ouch.
I see on CNN ( the Truth in News) that a 38 year old guy in New Jersey was arrested for pointing a laser at planes. Apparently, hea has done it at least a dozen times. Thats enough to get the FBI excited about possible terrorists activity...but no, just a bozo in New Jersey.
150,000 and growing, thats the death toll in the far east tsunami. To put it in the simplest terms for digestion by Americans....thats more than all who died in 9/11. All kinds of stories now about how the American army is 'saving the day' during this crisis and no stories about what other countries are doing. THE MARINES HAVE LANDED! They would have landed sooner but Dubya was on vacation. Its no wonder that Americans think that they are the 'only ones in the world' .... they never hear of the others.
Love those religious groups...they have to justify God's actions because after all it had to happen at his hand...he caused it to happen for a reason, he does everything for a reason...he is not mean spirited but rational, just teaching mankind a 'hard lesson'. Bull crap. IT WAS A BIG WAVE WHICH RESULTED FROM AN EARTHQUAKE! I cn't wait until some of them start talking about this being the first stage of the apocolypse. Next the locusts, then the boils...
Gary is in Arizona. Looks kinda cool there. see his blog here. He finally got his biggest wish....spending New Years Eve in a Wal-Mart parking lot! Too bad it closed at 6:00 PM!
Gary is in Bugtussle , Arizona and he can still Blog.....let's see others do the same so he can know that everything is OK with all of us!
Keep blogging............PEACE
