Until The Tests Came Back!
Published Wednesday January 7th, 2009


Did you that my ole Unc' was happily singing , "May ole acquaintances be forgot ... !" until the tests came back ‘Positive'! Taberduker! Up ‘til then, he was one red-hot demolition expert who thought that life was just one big blast! Ain't it the way tho?
Reminds me of safe and leakproof "raincoats". There's basically no such item that's comfortable and waterproof. If they're rubberized to the extent of being fairly effective, they're like a sauna inside. If they're just rain-resistant or rain-repellant or "weather-effective" they may be okay to run from the car into the mall, house, store or church but in the long run, or rain, they just keep you from getting "wet" in the short term, especially if it's an old-fashioned "raining cow patties and flat rocks to splash them with" rain! Analogous to - Don't blame the remote - it's usually a case of PEBCATV - Problem Exists Between Couch And TV! It's 2009 - time to live life on the wide side! Yahhooo! Yupdedooo! Or, holy heavenly hemorrhaging hemorrhoids! Christmas is "last year", and my bank account is a veritable verisimilitude of detritus, but I'm valiantly trying to retain my humorous, phlegmatic nature.
First lesson of 2009 - Humor phlegm, in medieval physiology, one of the four elemental fluids of the body, blood, phlegm, black bile, and yellow bile, regarded as determining by their relative proportions a person's physical and mental constitution. Ask any horse doctor.
Second lesson of 2009 - Quod vide, or q.v., in prescriptions, as much as you wish; q.q.v., in formal writing, ‘which see'. Quis custodiet ipso custodes - who shall keep watch over the custodians? Our MP's and our MLA's - who will keep watch to see that tales of getting rid of long gun registrations, keeping rural mailboxes intact, and such are followed through! I will!!! Or, put me up/down there so I can really do the job!!! Shades of - Until the tests came back! Taberduker! Then, just maybe, it could really be a rural Christmas All Year Round. Otherwise, they're gonna keep on squeezing us rural folk until they drive us completely out of rurality and into unbanity, and/or insanity! We need someone up/down there, who really does care!!! Believe it my friends!
Christmas All Year Round
January - February
And still I find it's found
That amazing Christmas spirit
Though everything's snow-bound,
March and April, season's changing
And when I need a ‘lift"
I let my memory take me back
To my fav'rite Christmas gift,
May and June are lovely
And there's so many things to do
But there's always time for kindness
So - take a Christmas cue,
July and August simmer
And the days are long and hot
Just like I do at Christmas
I give it all I've got,
September and October
And the hills are turning rosy
Christmas - just around the corner
And first fires feel so cozy,
November and December
Once again, it's almost here
Party's, concerts, presents
With lots of Christmas cheer,
Christmas time, a special time
When love and joy abound
If only it could only be
Like Christmas ... all year round!

Ending 2008 - George W. Bush - in way over his head, because he got there via his parties massive electoral machine, not via his qualifications and abilities. Reminds me of Jean Chretien and Paul Martin up here in Canada! Up here in Canada - is there really "so much more creative control in this country" or is it just that some of us in this country are still valiantly attempting to preserve community and moral values in the face of a ‘global meltdown' precipitated by ‘self-interest' groups! Like, the proverbial ‘The Pagan Christ'! Why do you think they air that utter BS (B--- S---) on CBC during the Christmas period! Because, I believe, that Canada, my friends, by UN resolution, is no longer a Christian Country!! I've literally asked my MP to help me find out which/when that resolution passed and who supported it! No reply yet!!!
Ending 2008 - the International Year Of The Potato! Let's hope it won't be - Ending 2009 - the year Of The New Brunswick Potato Farmer! Ending 2008 - another year of "massive wildfires" in California. $Hundreds of Millions of celebrity homes burned! Once more, as annually, you and I take a hit on our insurance because - the fools let the fools build right back up in the same places so's they can burn again soon's the brush grows back! Am I right or ain't I? It's - Until The Tests Came Back - again! Think about it!

Before I forget, thank you (You know who you are/aren't!) for the eight foot level, it's really great for hanging household doors! Shades of ‘Measure twice - cut once'! Think twice - write once! For 2009 - once more I throw out the idea of having reflective tape incorporated into the design of cars and pick-ups, especially! So's if'n ya goes off the road on a cold dark wet night and the/your light goes out - someone passing by just might see your vehicle down there! It's cheap, and could prove more important that that 120V toaster outlet in the dash that you, and almost everyone else, will never use!
In 2009 - be a "social dynamic", like me. Do your part to save CO2 emissions, and reduce atmospheric chaotic clog. I'll do my part to reduce collective columnistic anathematic collisions, with their flowered elocutionary gesturations. Not to be confused with the eloculinary gesturings my Moma used to make with her floured hands when I tried to steal the doughnut dough! Happy New Year!
