Merry Christmas to Canada’s Troops!

  Merry Christmas to all our men and women in uniform, wherever you may be today. Just for fun, here is a video of a so-called “flash mob” singing Christmas Carols in a Californa shopping mall, much to the delight of the mall’s customers.

Free WiFi Internet and a $50 discount for killing your unborn child on The Lord’s Day

It’s quite the deal, really.  The catch is the ONLY day you can get the $50 discount for killing your unborn and unwanted child is on Sunday, commonly referred to in some circles as the Lord’s Day.

“Obama is a living and breathing nightmare” — The Epic Failure of Obama in 2 minutes or less

In a column titled “A disaster called Obama“, columnist Yigal Wait writes scathingly about the failure of “Mr. Hope and Change”, Barack Obama. While his column tears strip after strip from the hide of the most useless President in American history, his last two lines are brilliant: Bush is already a distant dream, while Obama [...]

Hello there. It’s me again…Don Laird. As the old expression goes…….”I’m working on something big”……but before I get all heavy and critical (with furrowed eyebrows and a rambling rantish screed….)…….you need to watch these guys….

Of The Rocky Mountains, Restless Souls and Walkabouts (and a shitload of shoe leather!)

It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon so I decided to take a drive. A cup of coffee and out to the mountains of Jasper, Alberta, practically right in my back yard. For me the mountains are a magical place I never tire of visiting. Occasionally I have to give thanks for all I have that [...]
