An Election Gone

Oh woe, broken electoral system... voters were turned away... I have been working the federal election and I got to see firsthand people being turned away from the polls. Our system of confirming peoples residency in the riding is a piece of crap. How many folks would have the gumption to try to vote in several ridings? They would have to have several pieces of official id, as we do check the list of voters for duplication.

Anyhow, I have been working 7 days a week the last little while as I try to create a museum opening exhibit, get some NDPers elected and write a teacher's guide for a multi-media performance based on environmental and social justice.

Wowie.

Now, a municipal election is on the way and no rest for the wicked.

Time Flies

Yesterday spent a whole 12 hours in Langley learning power equipment and bbq product knowledge. It's the beginning of the season for the Homme Dee. What can I say though, except that as time went by I was getting more and more interested in mowing the lawn or indeed investing in a fine toothed hedge trimmer. Bad news, spending so much time around power tools.

I think I'll recommend nothing but reel mowers and organic gardening supplies from here on in.

Moving!

I am moving from 1830 East Pender... which begs the question, do I maintain the blog as such or change the name? That's the challenge.

Also I have been working too much at the HomeeDee, making money and eating too many m&ms on my breaks.



I drive forklift now. (note the Albertan vernacular - no need for an article).

It's an art.
