You know this is the only country in the world that I know of that if one cuts taxes folks get to complaining. I guess them folks has got so much money that it doesn’t matter to them. If you look at Alberta there is no PST at all and hey guess what, they do pretty well. It would be ok if the money that they got from taxes went to the places that needed it but it doesn’t and never will. It’s like most all these charity things or sending money to poorer countries. I bet if one could see the bottom figure of what really ends up getting to the poor countries you would find out about five cents out of ever dollar if that. This Province is paying so much for tax that it’s getting hard for any one to make ends meat. I could go on here for an hour but for what good it will ever do, well it’s just a waste of time. The Powers to be of the world today has got folks so paranoid that they can’t look after them selves, that if it wasn’t for the Powers to be folks would not exist. That is wrong, people have look after themselves and one day, remember this one day, it will not be money that rules this old world it will be brains and being self efficient. Talk Soon.

Almost A Full Moon
Well we almost have a Full Moon out there, will be here tomorrow. Walking back from the shop tonight I spotted it up above and with that showing itself it will sure make for a cold night. Usually one can tell what the months weather will be if he or she takes notes on what the weather is on a full moon. As what ever it is then that’s what you will pretty well have for the coming month. So that’s a pretty good estimate in my eyes. I have used that way of telling the weather for over 50 years now and well, most the time it’s right, but you know, Mother Nature has a way of sending us what ever she wants. This morning the smoke from the chimney was just hanging in the air and heading towards the ground. One can sure tell when the smoke does that, that it’s going to be a cold day. Also good way to tell us to put on an extra shirt. The next full moon is two days before Christmas, the 23rd. Talk Soon.
Column Update For The Nugget
This Saturday in the North Bay Nugget my story is about my younger days on Go Home Lake which is located just off HWY 69 south of Perry Sound. The folks that raised me along with myself put in a road back to the lake years ago a real job for sure. The lake actually was named after me, well sort of. The way it came to being was one day Reg and Laura was sitting chatting on what to call the lake now that it was open for folks to see. “Well said Reg after giving it a lot of thought, one of these days George here will be going back home with his real Dad, so lets call it…. Go Home Lake. And well, that’s what they did and today if you happen by the lake along HWY 69 and you see the sign, you will have a heads up on how it all came about. So don’t forget pick up a copy of the Saturdays North Bay Nugget. Talk soon.

Planer Gave Up The Ghost
Well worked in the shop most the day today. Had a bit of a problem with the old Planer. I bought it a few years ago a Ridgid> The bearings are shot in the old girl and I guess it isn’t worth fixing. So guess it’s time to go shopping. Didn’t expect that this time of year but we used it a lot so what can one do. Now I wish I didn’t sell my heavy duty one I had back at my old shop. Oh well what can you do can’t cry over spilled milk. Other than that had a pretty good day. Got a few Flutes made and made a mess in the shop. Talk Soon
