Government Negotiations
Do you think that it might have been wiser to wait for the federal court decision on the legality of the approval process used by the National Energy Board when giving the go ahead for expansion of the Kinder Morgan bitumen pipeline, before spending 9 billion plus dollars on what was originally purchased for 110 million dollars by Kinder Morgan, ten years ago?
Considering that we all knew that Harper’s National Energy Board was nothing more than a corrupt industry rubber stamp. Isn’t that one of the many reasons we got rid of Harper, including of course hiding in a closet when we were attacked (in case anyone forgot)?
Somehow I am now supposed to be confident that our government can successfully renegotiate NAFTA with the Orange Asshole.
Jesus I’m sounding like a conservative.
Dating Apps
My son has become a player, in his dad’s mind. He has three different dating apps that apparently are for daters wanting three different types of dates. He showed me one app in action where he simply clicked on a portfolio at 3:00 am the night before and now, 12 hours later when he logged back in the woman replied, “yeah I’m free tonight”.
The last time time I dated was in 1970 and my pickup line was “do you want to screw?”. The two us either ended up finding a quiet corner or we went out and blew bubbles in the park. It seemed a lot easier then.
But it’s 2018, so I joined Our Time, a dating app for old people. Comparatively, his two clicks over a 12 hour period resulting in a date of some type, equals my 11 months with multiple pages of texts going back and forth to get to have a coffee with a cool woman.
What happened to all those young girls I blew bubbles with in seventies?
They’ve changed.
Edibles
Bought some gummy edibles on line the other day.
Ever since the Cash Office Manager (an amazing girl who had a great story about being in a Mexican jail for a month) of the Miracle Mart Department store I worked at in the late seventies, made all the staff that had to work on a May 24th weekend in the garden centre, hash brownies, I’ve been leery of the dosage of edibles.
That day I spent over three hours beaming on top of ten skids of peat moss, after just one and I was the only person that knew tomato plants from strawberries (after all I was management).
Anyway, that is why I bought the small seven dollar pack of lower dose candy this time around. They were fine. The high was like how you feel about an hour after you do a toke.
Although next time I’ll get a better dosage, my real complaint about edibles is the two hour wait for any effect to occur and by then it is usually too late in the day or night to take a second one and wait another two hours.
I think I will only do edibles when I have a whole day free, taking another one as soon as the first one takes affect etc. It will be a lot easier that sneaking out for a toke every now and then to hide from my grandkids.
Unless anybody has got a better suggestion and thank you for your time, I feel much better.
