Memory

Long long time ago

I can still remember when

ARRGGH ANEURYSM

Sugar High

Look high and look low

Here and there and everywhere

Coloured sugar bombs

Sun Set

Another day gone
Sol sinks below the skyline
Red flames fill the air

New Beginning

Chatting over tea

Learning, growing, wanting more

Adding to family

Soft Gray

Water sits heavy

High above the heads of all

Thunder Storm Crashes

The Oil Sands

So, here we are. One province to the east of me is one of the worlds last untapped supply of oil. From some reports, there is as much oil trapped in those sands as there is lying under the sands of Saudi Arabia.

We have as much wealth trapped in those sands as we could possibly want - what to do with it? Do we leave it in the ground because it is so hard and dirty to extract or do we suck it out and power your car?

It really appears that there are many environmentalists out there who will jump up and down screaming
that it is too dirty to use. How many of those people drive cars? Or use plastic products? Or use any food
product that needs to be shipped in from Hawaii, or California, or Mexico....?

As a whole, the human race has evolved to the point where we all demand more and more, bigger and better,
faster and shinier. How do we make it happen? The energy and resources to produce these new items has to come from somewhere or are you willing to forgo that new cell phone?

Before you stand up and say ""THE OIL SANDS ARE AN UGLY MESS AND SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN"", ask yourself what are you willing to forgo?

Something to think on

Fatal Error

One Zero Zero

Zero Zero One One One

One Zero Two......

Bon Appetit

Skin is flayed away

Chopped, boiled and dabbed with butter

Your carrots await

Search Again

There it awaits one

Reach out and pull it in tight

Work it once again

The Hunt Continues

At one time in my life, I dreamed to collect my unemployment insurance.
I needed it.
I wanted it so bad I could taste it.

I have had my fill, I am ready to be employed again.
