I ask this question “Why do we (humans) love machines?

We have machines doing work that our Grandparents and even our Great,Great, Great grandparents use to do. Now, granted some machines do jobs that are not safe for a human to do. But, more often than not, the machines have taken jobs away from us.

Machines have taken away the true good feeling of fulfillment. Machines have made us depressed because there are no jobs and we (humans) need that feeling of accomplishment and pride of doing a job and supporting his love ones. Even cavemen I’ve heard, went out to hunt to bring home the bacon (so to speak).

Then, there is the issue (or i-i-s-s-s-ue, as Barbie would say) of the quality of workmanship. I admit there is a lot most stuff in today’s market than what was back in Grandma’ day. But honestly, when everything was done by humans (handmade) and not machines, things lasted longer and of better quality.

Give it some thought. If we stopped using machines and put people back to work. The world would would be a better place. The use of assistance or that awful word ‘welfare’ would be gone. More people would have an income. People would feel good about their lives and products would be of better quality.

A theory which sometimes seems hopeless. A theory that would…..

Now on a lighter side, I want to share this video and thanks to You Tube I can share it here.

“Mamma, ..Mamma, where did I come from…” ??Queen?? “love it, link it”

I am sure most of you have heard about the huge oil gusher in the Gulf of Mexico. I strongly believe that setting it on fire is the worst thing to do.
PLEASE take a look at this idea and like me if ” I like it, I link it”
. PLEASE, help me spread this around, we will be saved. This could use a lot-ta hay but it will be worth it.

Help is needed, let us get this story out there and maybe the people in charge will get this message and they will act. I pray. Amen

This is special, and I am grateful to the Author.(C. W. Longenecker)

Don’t Quit!

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
when he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.

Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit,
It’s when things seem worst, that
You Must Not Quit.

Home Sweet Home

This is my home. I grew up there. I visit almost every year. It is a small town, where the trees are short and the land is level. Now, I live where the trees are tall and the land is piled high with rock. I know ‘the One Red Paper Clip house’ that started all this for Kipling. My family is buried there, my brother and Mother and Father still live there. My brother is living on the farm I grew up on . My mother and Father live in Kipling.

Oh yeah, one more thing, Kipling cheers for the Ssk. Roughriders.

Thanks to CBC

The small town of Kipling, Sask. is preparing for the unveiling of a major film shot there last winter. ‘It was like shooting at the North Pole,’ actor Corbin Bernsen says.

Let’s put this town on the map.

This is video of Teege’s teammate getting hit. He had to have stitches. J. was stitched up and back on the ice in a very short time. J. is tough and his Dad is a Doctor. It’s nice to have a doctor in the house.

Now this is so good, and the truth of Nelson. That is why we live here.

I am posting this picture because I remember Kyla phoned us in the winter during hockey and we want to get together and the timing wasn’t right. I will phone her to see if we can make it another day.kylaowen-and-apple.jpg
