Henry today. Driving home a while ago, I heard an interview on the radio with a NASA scientist who said he was “connecting the dots” about global warming. He said that the next ten years are critical. For the past ten years the world has produced 2% more CO2 each year. Over the next ten […]
Greetings, Henry here. A friend of mine sent this to me and I thought it was worth passing on. so, here’s some advice from an old farmer:
An Old Farmer’s Advice:
* Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight
and bull-strong.
* Keep skunks and bankers at a
distance.
* Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.
* A bumble […]
Greetings all, Steve here. Hmm, I think I feel a cynical moment coming on. My grade 10 history teacher, back in the post-Kurt Cobain/pre-Al Quaeda period that we’re now told we shold feel mildly nostalgic about, told us that, much as the Romans had used vicious, unbelievably violent spectacles and games in the Collesiums to […]
Greetings, Steve here. Well, I’ve been thinking about the Olympics a lot lately, because I have absolutely no choice. Not only are the Turino Winter Games almost totally ubiquitous, they run almost all the time in my apartment these days, since my girlfriend is out of her mind.

You’ve got to stay on top of these things, guys. Ya know, I’m disappointed in […]
Henry here. It’s hard to know what to make of Dick Cheney’s hunting accident. I’m sitting here being puzzled with a whirl of thoughts going through my mind.
I’ve fired a shotgun more than I’ve fired a high powered rifle. Sometimes, just for the Hell of it, when out hunting, we would shoot at a […]
Henry here. My father gave me my first gun when I was about 13 years old. Mostly I used it for target shooting. Then, a lifetime ago, I used to do a lot of hunting. At the end it was more important to sit under a tree and let nature talk to me than it […]
