Tim's Tip of the Day
|
 Riding with no hands down main street? Well at least
it is on the right hand side of the street! The bravado and exuberance of growing
up is to be cautiously enjoyed. |

 A
clamp slipped off- Monday
May 31, 2004

line ruptured in the middle of last week and was repaired Friday morning due to the
failure of a clamp design.
|
|
 Firewalls- Monday
May 31, 2004
by : Ron Thornton
Edmonton : Deputy
Prime Minister Anne McLellan pointed out the obvious that Conservative leader Stephen
Harper was an avowed Alberta Separatist. Ron Thornton makes the point that indeed
all Harper is advocating what Ontario and Quebec already have and that is their own
brand of self serving separatism and it only seems fair that Alberta be like them.

May 31, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire

 Park flower beds
dressed today- Thursday
May 27, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire

 Canadian
National Railroad - Saskatchewan- Thursday
May 27, 2004
by : R. W. Shire
Regina : It has been in less than twenty years that Saskatchewan's railroad system
was destroyed. It is important to understand that railroads are under the juridiction
of the Federal department of transportation and their destruction and abandonment
was essentially a transfer of expense to the province as trucks run on highways which
are a provincial responsibility.

May 25, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Nipawin : The
Iraq expedition is definitely losing its popularity with the American public but

American policies.

May 25, 2004
by: Kevin McIntyre
Carrot River
: If you are using Windows and dial-up to connect to the Internet watch
out for some sneaky pop-up menus that might appear while you surfing the web one
wrong click and a nasty programme will reset your connection number from the one
you have to an obscure island of the West coast of Africa.

 Change- Tuesday
May 25, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Nipawin : This is a simple concept but one that needs to be thoroughly examined.
Just like people who want to purchase an electric drill really don't want a drill,
but want holes. So it is that once we get a handle on what the world is about we
are in a better position to make changes.
