There I have added Carmen and Dan's blog to my list. Now that I have high speed lite (at least) life on the net is much easier and faster.

well, it's been about 6 or 7 years since i've driven a snowmobile. today was a good day for that and fun too, driving a newer snowmobile. even crystal was driving and now she still wants to drive again and again. She was even a bigger speed demon than carmen when carmen was six.

Ah for the lazy daisy days of summer. A brief but very wet and icy repreive from the cold weather has disapeared mysteriously only to return us to the bitter cold of -30. Perhaps my airconditioning will break down this summer and I will wish for the cold weather of today to stop the beads of sweat from rolling off my forhead. ha ha ha ha not.

Bean soup can be an interesting meal, later in the day. Dont invite friends over if you plan on serving bean soup. Make sure the dog is sleeping on the carpet nearby, so you can blame the strange smell on the sleeping dog. Just for extra fun serve the left overs the next day and have two days of enjoyment.

Finally a reprieve from the -51 degree weather. Plus two tomorrow they say, hopefully without freezing rain. It will certainly feel like a good day for ice fishing. Too bad we have to work Monady.

The ability to use the phone and the internet at the same time is certainly a bonus. Although technology seems to come with its own set of bugs these days. My phone for instance, the red message light continues to blink, yet there are no messages. When someone uses my toll free fax number they are unsuccessful at transmitting a fax, yet when people use the toll free phone line, they receive a fax signal. One would come to the conclusion that there was a problem with programming at Sasktel, alas, not so. When I phone the above mentioned numbers (from my cell phone) the fax toll free phone line works fine and the toll free phone line functions as it is supposed to as well. hmmmmm perplexing indeed.

well, I was able to successfully hook up my high speed lite all by myself. I now have high speed lite. much nicer than dial up. Of course I must remember now to run the virus checker more often but other than that whoopie.

Well the t4's are all done for this year. Believe it or not we actually had 20 employees as of august 16, 2004 thru to Dec 31. Total gross wages for that time period $46,000.00 Hopefully we can continue that way into 2005.

This is a rant about a paritcular product. I cannot come up with enough negative phrasing to adequately describe how I truly feel towards this particular piece of machinery. Do Not Purchase this item under any circumstances. In fact if someone tries to give this product to you tell them gently to stick it where the sun doesn't often reach. The product you ask, waiting with baited breath, what product could cause such a distaste in ones mouth as this. What product indeed. An HP 5510 All In One Printer, copier, fax, scanner. That is the true culprit, a machine manufactured to increase stress levels of it's owners (defintaley meets goal on that point) Let me just repeat that product, I wouldnt want any one to be mistaken HP 5510 all in one printer, scanner, fax, copier. This is the worst product of this category that I have ever used. This printer is capable of printing one excellent copy of anything, try to print a second copy, or a third copy or a forth copy,,,ha ha ha.. The machine disintegrates like an expired Mission Impossible message. Completly Useless, I Say!!!! Boycott Boycott Boycott HP HP HP HP HP 5510

Well, we couldn't have picked a colder day to drive one and half hours to hand out two hundred business cards. Our bad purchase for the day purchased at Walmart a comfort cushion with a small almost minute system of beads inside, which apparently are toxic, so must be kept away from small children, and used as a comfort cushion only and not even used to sleep with. my advise Dont Buy This Product.

cold, cold and more cold, brrrrr.

The car seems to run great, that is nice to know. This will be a great on gas car particularly in the summer months. If the summer months ever get here that is.

Finally found a replacement vehicle for the van that was written off by SGI. We bought a 1994 Mazda Protege for $3,500.00. Should be good on gas.

hmmm. I really must take that christmas tree down.

Well, it is my goal within the next two days to pick up the self install high speed internet connection kit. We shall see just what type of challenge that can provide.

Nasty, the weather that is. Minus thirty seven celcius and falling. ooh for those summer days, at least one positive, the days are getting longer albeit colder, at least for the time being.

Well, a new year. Many new occurrences happend last year, a new baby, a new marriage, a new house in PA, new self employment opportunities, new job for Dan, (so by the way, how's that going?) I wonder how this year will top all that from last year. Any predictions. Well, I've come up with another new idea. How does Pandora's Box Creative Communications and Inivative Marketing Ideas,, sound?? or more simply just Pandora's Box Communications? This particular company would provide local broadcast fax including design if required and publish and distribute a six page newsletter "The GrassRoots" to voluntary sector agencies in Saskatchewan. A newsletter complete with a new list of funding agencies and their requirements published quarterly.
