Looking After Our Own Should Come First

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

You know certain things come along in E-Mails that sometimes need to be put out there.  This is one that came to me the other day. It is right along my way of thinking so thought I would share.

We’re “broke” & can’t help our own Seniors, Homeless, Veterans, Orphans, etc. ?????
This is so pathetically true…in the last month we have provided aid to Haiti, Chile, and Turkey.
Our retired seniors living on a fixed income receive no aid while our  government and religious organisations pour hundreds of millions of   dollars and tons of food to foreign countries.
We have hundreds of adoptable children who are shoved aside to make  room for the adoption of foreign orphans.
Why are so many CANADIAN citizens, and the CANADIAN government,   so star struck they won’t provide for our own?
CANADA: a country where we have homeless without shelter, children going to bed without eating, elderly going without needed meds,   and mentally ill without treatment -

yet we have a benefit for the people of Haiti on 12 TV stations, ships and planes lining up with food, water, tents, clothes, bedding, doctors and medical supplies.
Imagine if we gave ourselves the same support that we gave all other countries.

I feel bad for them but I also care about CANADA.

One has to remember that we have to look after ourselves first.  Why? Some ask.  Well simple, if we don’t,  the time will come we won’t be able to help anyone.  My Opinion Only

Harmonizing the PST With The GST

Monday, April 26th, 2010

My Sister sent me this atricle and figured it is worth being on  my Blog as it is so true.   Take  a look.

Wait till they Harmonize the PST & GST in Ontario.  Ouch Ouch Ouch

Tax his land,
Tax his  bed,
Tax the table
At which he’s fed.

Tax  his work,
Tax his pay,
He works for peanuts
Anyway!

Tax  his cow,
Tax his goat,
Tax his pants,
Tax his coat.

Tax  his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he
Tries to think.

Tax his car,
Tax his gas,
Find other ways
To tax his ass.

Tax all he has
Then let him know
That you won’t be done
Till he has no dough.

When he screams and hollers;
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till
He’s good and sore.

Then tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in
Which he’s laid.

When he’s gone,
Do not relax,
Its time to apply
The inheritance tax.

We had absolutely no national debt, had a large  middle class, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.

What in “Hell” happened? Can you spell ‘politicians?’

Disciplining Childrend Today & Yesterday

Sunday, April 25th, 2010

You know years ago when us young ones did something wrong a trip to the old wood shed would be in order.  Today though, things has changed, and instead of headin’ off to the wood shed to be disciplined, we now put them on Prozac or some other drug. Or who ever was doing the discipline would be hauled up in court.  Thing is, with all these new modern ways of handling problems, kids of today are worse off than before.   Kind of makes you think doesn’t it.   Now don’t get me wrong I am not  into beating a youngster, but a smack on the behind now and then if he or she is doing something wrong, in my eyes isn’t a bad thing.  My Opinion Only.

Why Folks Are Getting Sick

Friday, April 16th, 2010

Good Morning. Just yesterday I was asked what I thought  one should be eating these days to stay healthy. For one thing I think the question should have been what shouldn’t I be eating.  First off most of us live in an artificial world, wrapped inside our little cocoons of “pretend health” constructed by drug companies and junk food manufacturers who all somehow manage to claim their products are good for you.  Thing is folks you have to get more self reliant and look after your own body.  Sure now and then an infection might come along and you need some help, but for most parts I am a firm believer that you can stay healthy by eating healthy. The first and most important thing would be for you to stop eating all and I mean all processed foods. Now in saying that I can’t rightly say I have given up everything myself, but thanks to my wife I have eliminated around 80%. I sure do love a hot dog now and then though, might say it’s one of my weaknesses.  LOL  Another important item would be as I wrote in my last post and that is to get out into the sun, there again in moderation.  Ease into it this spring and your body will thank you for it by feeling great all year long.  I know…. it’s hard to eat right, with us living in a world that is pretty well all  made up with make believe, but if you want to stay healthy, your going to have too. Don’t be fooled into thinking all that the Powers That Be is tellin’ you is the truth, as it isn’t.  Have a great day and get outside.

Are Season Flu Vaccines Makining Folks Sick ???

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

Well been awhile since I gave my two cents about anything really, here at the Blog, reason being I have just been busy, along with a few other things.  But for most parts they are being handled.  I had a fellow come to me the other day to actually thank me for all the info I put on here about the Swine Flu.  Made my day.   Goes to show you though, how wrong our system is, as this was suppose to be one of the biggest pandemics of all times, or so the pharmaceutical companies were telling us and would like you to believe.  Thing is folks, think about this.  The vaccine that is out there now is being returned, as they say it has lost its effect.  Let me tell ya, I believe there is more wrong with it than just that.  Take a look at  this article.

This result, which virtually all the top natural health writers openly predicted last year, apparently stunned the researchers. As explained in the published study, “Danuta Skowronski and colleagues report the unexpected results of a series of Canadian epidemiological studies suggesting a counterproductive effect of the vaccine.”

In this case, “counterproductive effect” of the vaccine means that it works against you. Getting the vaccine shot appears to actually make you MORE susceptible to being infected with (and potentially killed by) a future pandemic.

Getting a vaccine shot could actually result in you being killed by the next seasonal flu or pandemic outbreak that comes along.

For the life of me I can’t begin to understand, why so many folks are getting these shots.  There is more proof out there that says its dangerous, but yet most subject their body to it day after day.  Amazing really, as a simple dose of vitamin D would be all you really needed.  This is the time of year folks to start your defence against the flu.  Get out there this spring, toughen up your skin a bit each day by being in the sun. Then when summer hits let it all soak in.  If you do that come Fall you will be in perfect health and the flu will be the last thing on your mind.

Here is a link for you to listen too I am not into rap that much so don’t get me wrong but this feller does have a way about him of getting his message across> Just click the link and take a look.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiXm…

New Book Up Date {Moments In Time}

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

Good afternoon.   Just thought I would let you all know my third book Moments In Time is almost compete.  If things go to plan we should have it in the stores around the middle of May.  I also plan to announce when it is available in with my column in Saturdays paper at the Nugget.  Also in month or so we will be starting our book signing events.  We will be at Gulliver’s in North Bay and also at Cole’s at the Mall in North Bay.  There again I will let you know dates and time soon as I know.  The way things are heading it looks like a very busy year, with our small store ready to go, three books on the market, speaking engagements, attending different events and book signings.  I also would like to meet you folks, so if you see one of my book-signings, or in our area, just drop in, open invitation.
