Your Life According To The Government
The Mayor brings you this video because he thought you may have had a good day and are planning to have an equally good evening. Watching this video should knock the happiness clean out of you.
The Mayor suggests sending this to everyone you know that has had a happy spell in the last three months. No use being unhappy alone, The Mayor always says.
No, seriously, The Mayor ALWAYS says that.

Here’s a little something for those folks that are putting their belief that they won’t have to eat just cabbage for the final 18 years of their lives. Not that there’s anything wrong with cabbage.

Now they don’t teach this sort of thing in school anymore, they do teach diversity, and shared responsibilities, and tolerance and how to accept change. I suggest you plant a diversity of potato types, share the responsibility of cooking with your spouse, and plant seed types that are tolerant to your soil type. Check the pH level in the soil, and learn how to change/amend it if necessary for base or acid, you’ll save a bundle on wasted fertilizer.
This type of potato harvesting can make all the difference in areas that have hard pan type soils where nobody wants to actually dig into, or where you’ve bought a house on a 30 x 80 feet site. Sprout the potatoes prior to planting for an extra jump of 2 weeks growing season in the north.
Alternatively, you can wait for the government check in the mail.

Does anyone know how to make a guillotine?

This is for a wooden guillotine,just replace the wooden blade with a piece of heavy sheet steel sharpened on one side,and you’re in business.
If you have any spare guillotine time left over,I know several people who should be introduced to it.

A guillotine? What do we look like, French?
February 13th, 2011 at 1:33 pm
Hey,every French invention isn’t bad! Take poutine,for instance,and frog’s legs.
Besides, it’s a lot more humane than the Irish method of execution, smashing an empty whiskey bottle over the condemned’s head!

I recall some folks selling miniature guillotines in order to slice their Viagra™ pills in half, I guess they’re quite hard on the outside and difficult to finesse a perfect slice. I have no idea, ask Guy Lafleur. He knows what ails the french.

And the Wings SCOOOORE! Oops, sorry. I was distracted for a moment. Wings 4, Boston 2.
Back to the bid’niz at hand. The vid didn’t make me unhappy at all, at least not personally (I DO feel for my grandchildren, tho). My life plan worked pretty well, all things considered.

The Mayor wonders what it’s like to support a hockey team that actually scores some goals…

Vancouver 81 pts; GF 190, GA 133.
Toronto is still ahead of both Ottawa and Edmonton.
… being happy.
Cheers

Y’know,SOME DAY,Toronto’s gonna have a first round draft choice,and in the fine tradition of Fred Arthur and Fred Boimistruck,they’re gonna pick a real doozie!
I believe it.
Really.

Maybe they’ll be lucky enough to pick first in the first round?
