Musings of an old guy
I would usually write to this to Joe because he has interesting slant on life and he is my rock of strength so to speak. I don’t ask for his advice, I get it and its free and I don’t agree with it sometimes.
His answers provide more thoughts and ideas for my writing or running of the brain which is given to the paper we all read. I call them my ramblings. I beat around the bush to tease you and then I give you the truth as far as I am able, writers privileges.
Joe, should have been a therapist because of his manners but he said no, I want to have a job where I am free of the world’s problems carried by so few people, and our hats off to the professionals that have chosen to help guide us thru life’s road of mystery.
Having said that there are people that are born to do this and those who wish they could. If, we could get the right person the first time how simple life would be, personal opinion and I am not slamming those who are not proficient at their job. Somebody has to do the work.
They just make it more stressful to get proper help and continue to mend on the road of life. This covers all professionals in the all the fields, even the almighty plumber. As humble as this job is, its one of the most important in our lives. Try and remember when the last time you had a bathroom problem and you know what I mean.
Just to get in that frame of mind, turn off the water to the main vanity and cover it over and use the one downstairs until the plumbers shows to fix your blockage, while you are it cover over the mirror as well and only cold water for the tub or shower. Life is grand.?
To easy, ok, now the pooper isn’t working, scramble for the throne. Its not a pretty picture is it.? As humble as this man is he is able to make a house call and help you, when the last time you had that kind of service.?
Be a good story to write about. Sorry, I am off topic or am I?.
Anyway, I am going to try and persuade Joe to become a internet shrink and have a disclaimer that it “ works for me, does not mean it will work for you”. Joe, the plumber, the shit is theoretically to run downhill but sometimes it don’t.!!
Who, can you call??. Write or call me now and we can flush this problem together. Inspiring isn’t it. Well, it’s a stretch, but if you are at wits end, how bad can it get??..............,are you thinking about it or not??.
Just to get you in the proper frame of thought, “your shit does stink and you aren’t alone”.

Play Russian Roulette if you want to, but I'm done with buying foreign....
A friend sent this too me and asked to share.!
This is not only to save Canadian jobs it is to save ourselves and our nation as a whole from illness. Foreign production lines are not kept up to the same high standards we have here in Canadian and are far from clean.
Not to mention the horrible state of overseas water supplies. Don't they say when overseas or on vacation always drink bottled water? How do you really know the water used in most imported canned edibles is clean? You don't! Scary thought isn't it?
We had better get on the wagon and start reading labels. Not only do we already send enough money overseas as charity but do we really need to be sending more of our hard earned money when buying something that could possibly cause mass sickness across our beloved family, friends and countryside???? Think about it!
This is TRULY worth reading and considering.....
All pickles with the Presidents Choice label and the No Name yellow label [Superstore] are made in India. Think about it, water from the Ganges River is used. Tell me if you think this sounds like a clean enough river!
The Ganges River and basin is the most heavily populated river basin in the world, with over 400 million people and a population density of about 1,000 inhabitants per square mile (390 /km2).
Exactly what I thought you would say!
Made in Canada
A physics teacher in high school, once told the students:
That while one grasshopper on the railroad tracks wouldn't
Slow a train very much, a billion of them would.
So, keep that thought in mind, read the following, obviously Written by a patriotic Canadian:
Shopping in Lowe's the other day for some reason and just for the fun of it I was looking at the garden
hose attachments,They were all made in China . The next day I was in Home Hardware and just for the fun of it I checked the hose attachments there.
They were made in Canada!
Start looking........
In our current economic situation, every little thing we buy or do affects someone else - even their job.
A quote from a consumer: ...my grandson likes Hershey's candy. I noticed, though, that it is marked
made in Mexico now, instead of Smiths Falls , Ontario . I do not buy it any more.
My favourite toothpaste, Colgate, is made in Mexico now. I have switched to Crest.
You have to read the labels on everything.
This past weekend I was at Wal-Mart. I needed 60W light bulbs. I was in the light bulb
aisle, and right next to the GE brand I normally buy was an off-brand labeled, "Everyday Value". I picked up both
types of bulbs and compared the stats - they were the same except for the price. The GE bulbs were more money
than the Everyday Value brand but the thing that surprised me the most
was the fact that GE was made in MEXICO and the Everyday Value brand was made in - get
ready for this - Canada at a company in Ontario .
Their Equate Products are also made in Canada , and are very good.
Just to add my own experience on buying Made In Canada , I was looking for canned mushrooms
that were made in Canada and could never find any, so I would buy fresh.
But recently I found Ravine mushrooms - made in Canada with a little red maple leaf on the can. A
little more money but when I opened the can I looked at mushrooms that look
like real mushrooms, not a mushroom that looks like it was cleaned in bleach.
Another product I no longer buy is Del Monte or Dole canned fruit. Del Monte is packaged in
Taiwan and Dole is now a product of China .
Why should we pay for their fruit when our growers are left with fruit rotting on the trees. E.D.
Smith is still made in Canada .... buy theirs, at least you will know
what is in it and have some quality control.
So throw out the myth that you cannot find products you use every day that are made right here .
My challenge to you is to start reading the labels when you shop for everyday things and see what you can find that is made In Canada .
The job you save may be your own or your
neighbor’s'! (Your children & grandchildren, also.)
If you accept this challenge, pass it on to others in your address book so we can all start
buying Canadian, one light bulb at a time! Stop buying from overseas companies!
(We should have awakened two decades ago.)
Let's get with the program. Help our fellow Canadians keep their jobs and create more jobs here in Canada .
This is not only to save Canadian jobs it is to save ourselves and our nation as a whole from illness. Foreign production lines are not kept up to the same high standards we have here in Canadian and are far from clean.

If President Obama insists on a 'Made in America ' Policy, which is commendable of him, to
support American workers, we should do likewise.
Read the labels. Support Canadian jobs.
BUY CANADIAN !
