Hello again… right in the week’s middle –
Spring – the Almanac says, is fully here… The equinox came on the 20th – I misread it earlier… And the folks out in
We have some friends who were driving the Ice Road up in northern Saskatchewan Province – Lake Athabasca – where they have to bring in heavy construction equipment and supplies in the coldest part of their winter when the road people up there can certify the ice will be thick enough – something like 30 inches—to hold up a loaded 18 wheeler or two running in tandem. It’s not a job for the faint-hearted. But I think they must have made it back OK… because no news – which is good news. The bad news is there were some tragic plane crashes in
Anyway… I suppose you got another large dose of our President reading the teleprompter last evening. We were out at a meeting and so missed all that news as it happened. I hear there were reporters from major newspapers griping because of being skipped over. It seems the gloss has gone off the “magic touch” that enthralled what some are now calling the “lame stream” media. Well… first they threw McCain under the bus… now seem to be turning on Mr. Obama… But we’ll see.
I also picked up the news the curmudgeonly grouse – whose name I’ve forgotten on American Idol – didn’t have time to respond to a White House invitation to come visit with the President. Ah … how soon they forget. But this fellow can be overlooked because he’s not a citizen or voter in the first place… all that stands in the way of being nice is…well, courtesy… and we all know that went out of fashion a *long* time ago.
So… onward toward the weekend is the office grouch’s cry. We’ll communicate again on Friday. (DV)
Cordially, IN HIM
Jack
