The Truth About Cats and Dogs in Black and White

Truth is just one person's reality. Here is mine in black and white (maybe some shades of gray). This blog has little to do with Cats or Dogs - just humourous sarcastic antics about my life or occasionally, someone else's. You know, intercepting volleyballs with my face, egg dropping, etc. The truth has seen some changes and in fluidity with change expect to see more artistic expressions posting up - so give your two cents worth!

Bring on the night! Let's boycott mornings!


"Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast"

- Oscar Wilde

Staring down the bottom...

Yes its been that kind of week. The kind that lends itself to the "feel sorry for yourself bath", the "self-loathing bottle of wine", the "anti-depression brownies", and coming soon to a theatre near you...the "someone appreciates me haircut." This is how women deal with stress.

Decoding our monopoly money

The "looney" (top-right corner) is the name affectionately given to Canada’s one dollar coin for now obviously reasons...no tails...just loons. When you add two “loonies”, you get a “twony,” Canada’s two dollar coin (bottom left-corner) - much less original nickname. I would call it "dead weight in my pocket coin."
The Royal Canadian Mint, the institution responsible for producing Canadian coins, has recently released a new series of “Millennium Coins”. No one is denying the beauty of these new coins, but let’s not forget those colourful pieces of paper that we carry around in our wallets and purses.
The Bank of Canada is the institution responsible for producing Canada’s paper currency. The Bank of Canada notes have been issued since 1935 and these have appeared in five series with different signature combinations of the Deputy Governor and Governor of the Bank of Canada. The size and composition of the paper used to produce these bank notes have remained fairly constant throughout the Banks’ sixty-five year history. The currency we use today was released in 1986 and is often referred to as the “Birds of Canada” series. This series was designed with enhanced security features and special features that allow visually impaired users to identify the denomination of the bank note. The front of the bank notes includes a portrait of either a Canadian Prime Minister or Queen Elizabeth II. (Three of Canada’s seven bank notes portray Queen Elizabeth II). The back of the notes features an image depicting one of Canada’s native birds. In 1986, the $1 bank note was not reissued as part of the new series, and it has been progressively withdrawn from circulation. Recently, the $2 note has been replaced by a more durable coin known as the “twony”.

Getting my two cents worth!

I had a brilliant idea. Ok, its not brilliant at all. But someone has been heckling me regarding not being paid for blogging (or by anyone else at the moment). So I am going to pay myself. If you have noticed my comments now say "# cents worth" (original idea believe it or not). So now have a "cents worth" jar. First I thought I would pay a dollar per comment, then remembered that I am a student. Plus - the car payments, student loans, insurance and "real bills" can not be affected by this new money saving scheme (notice I did not say money making). One cent was also an obvious choice but it would take like a year of commenting to buy a candy bar (not that I need said candy bar). So, I do like the metric system - dimes would work, easy to count comments but still not a big savings investment.

So I had previously decided on quarters. Quarters add up. But I am actually back to looneys, damn metric. Looneys are good and I can have a looney jar, which just sounds funny. But going with the looneys means potential savings and what do I do with it? Moving coins from one account to a jar? So this is my plan. I recently began retirement planning (another post alltogether), just one payment into a self directed RRSP. I do need to establish a monthly contribution plan. So to all those people who now say blogging is a waste of my time - it is now a means to save for my monthly RRSP contribution. This new transfer of fund program begins with posts dated March, 25, 2006 (ie the previous one) with deposits into my self-directed RRSP the last of the month, beginning April 30.

I officially hate HTML and CSS


Someone please tell me how to get rid of the underlining on all the links, I can not find anything in my coding that looks remotely like "border-bottom" or "underlining" for links. Bloody hell! This refurbishment took me all day...literally. First it was getting pictures to fit in the side bar (expect a new one each week), then it was fonts and colours, and stupid lines, and images, and oh that nasty little bit of comment coding, grrrrr. Very artistic photo, n'est pas? Notice the J.I.L. (what a geek).

Blue


Apparently I'm feeling blue. I have been trying to change my coding to add cool things...picture backgrounds, cool colours, etc...but I am having html issues. How in the world do people do this for a living? I am slowly loosing my mind. Grrr...

Religious highway, more like surburban side street


I had today's post handed to me at the door this morning. My invitation to their Kingdom. This isn't going to be some South Park satirism. That is another story - people who can not appreciate the art of satire - the fable of the 21st Century. I believe in compassion, it is the axiom of all world religions. This is why I am polite and sometimes too tolerant of tele-sales and door-to-door religious marketing. So I listen, as it is important to understand people before judging them. Then I play the "ok, that is your interpretation, now here is what my spiritual guide says." The door-to-door religious meeting should be a give-take relationship, although it is my personal belief that this type of religious solicitation is not morally sound.

She was a lovely lady, very polite, and didn't say anything crazy or bless me and when I told her that my spiritual beliefs fall elsewhere and outside the realm of traditional Christianity she didn't even flinch or condemn me to hell (ok a little sarcasm). Obviously surprised by the absence of the door in her face I explained that I do find religion fascinating (mostly the impact of religious and spiritual influence on one's relationship with nature) and noted that nothing that she had professed, in fact, conflicts with my "scripture." Different authors and publication dates. And this is my point really. People are fundamentally the same. Religion is fundamentally the same. Belief in whatever form - an omnipresece or science, fulfills a role in our spiritual fullfilment our raison d'etre. I can't name one religion that does not vehemently teach compassion or revere the cause of peace. So what is the world missing? Tolerance. Understanding. While other people choose to congregate, I choose to meditate in solitude and as often as possible in natural surroundings. I found my own path and won't be biting the hook of any religious fisherman but if their boat was sinking I would help them to land.

My brain pattern; secret unleashed


Your Brain's Pattern

You have a dreamy mind, full of fancy and fantasy.
You have the ability to stay forever entertained with your thoughts.
People may say you're hard to read, but that's because you're so internally focused.
But when you do share what you're thinking, people are impressed with your imagination.
What Pattern Is Your Brain?

I am disappointed with lack of commenting and therefore all you get today is another blog thing. These stupid tests are remarkable accurate...no really. This is me to a T.

Irish Russians and Cash Bars


Ok, back to sarcastic funny antics...
Yesterday, St. Pat shone done on us all, Irish and Non flooded Georgestreet. There were green beads, green mad hatters, green beer, and of course my personal Irish favourite...the Irish Russian...ok ok...so I was drinking White Russians - we don't all like Guinness. It was an interesting time with good friends and good strangers. And once again I was hit on by a girl. I mean I'm sure she could be very nice but I'm sorry I just like men and I don't see that changing anytime soon. Why does this happen to me? I also did something highly uncharacteristic of myself and obviously egged on by liquid courage. Curious?

Earlier that afternoon...
My presentation that was pre-empted due to the Olympic gold medal men's curling match was rescheduled for, of all days, St. Paddy's Day. Well, I suppose St. Paddy was shining down on me too, sharing that luck of the Irish with all who needed it. It went quite well. It seemed to improve as the presentation went on, of course that may have been the beer. Yes, yes, they served beer at my lecture. And it was not simply in honour of the good orange, white, and green. They do it for all Friday seminars. And as I stood there talking about ecological integrity, I realised, damn, one of the national members on the EI panel were present. Also, It is very difficult to discuss the historical apsects of national parks with out getting a little political. After brief discussion on national park politics, I later discovered that a childhood friend of Tom McMillan (a former conservative Cabinet Minister that I both revered for creating 5 new parks and mildy condemned for focusing on self-interests in South Moresby Island rather than the completion of the national park system) was in attendance. But all was well and even my toughest critics seemed enthused. Go me!

BEWARE!


It is the Ides of March, which reminds me today is someone's birthday. The Ides of march is accompanied shortly after by volleyball provincials, St. Paddy's Day, and of course, Sheila's Brush...so far only freezing rain.

Definition Sheila's Brush: Fierce storm and heavy snowfall about the 18th of March. Sheila's Brush is the last of winter usually around St. Patrick's day. The snow is a result of Sheila's sweeping. Legend has it that Sheila was St. Patrick's wife, sister or mother.

Moment of Meow - Stolen!


Yes, yes, I do believe this one deserves "moment of meow" status. One of these kittens is me, one of these kittens is a well-known Canadian musical artist making her musical debut in the Holy Heart of Mary production of CATS circa 1986. Can you guess which one I am? And who is the famous singer/songwriter? Follow-up image to come.

CAT-SCANS


Who knew? I think I may have to start a weekly post about the things I learn in a week. Last week, thanks to Jeopardy, I learned that kidney transplants are available to our feline companions. They are not viable for canines as only 40% survive the post-op month, compared to 90% of felines. Of course there is a vehemently obvious ethical issue. Unless you speak MEOW, how would one secure consent from the donor? Donors come from research facilities and MUST be adopted by the owner of the organ transplant candidate. This is the part that caught my attention. Instead of consenting to kidney removal they get a new home - that must balance organ donation right? I mean what do cats really want in life? Space. Space to sleep, eat, and crap - yes in that order. Here is another ethical issue, the surgery costs 7,000 US. So, while a homeless cats get a home, a kidney-less cat gets a kidney, a cat lover gets another cat (one would have to be a cat lover to fork over 7,000 for a feline kidney transplant) ... who really wins?

For more reading on this issue here are some sites I stumbled across, both for and against arguments...
Transplants now treat feline kidney disease

View Point: Kidney Transplants

Eating Flies, Being Green


You Are Kermit

Hi, ho! Lovable and friendly, you get along well with everyone you know.
You're a big thinker, and sometimes you over think life's problems.
Don't worry - everyone know's it's not easy being green.
Just remember, time's fun when you're having flies!

WHARF!


I have to credit Gengio for this post. You know when you approach the point of no return? When you you cross that imaginary line that should never be crossed? When things just go too far? Well then...you know about the WHARF. The wharf is a lovely place to be but one wrong step and SPLASH, man overboard. Good friends warn you before you approach the end of the wharf...with a good natured..."uhm, wharf." While sometimes it sneaks up on you and all you can do is shake your head to rid yourself of the back splash. That my friends is the story of the wharf. I've been on the wharf many times. Good things can be found at the wharf. The wharf is an amusing place to be, a source of great humour. But not everyone's wharf is the same length either. Sometimes the wharf is short...sometimes the wharf is long. Some people think the wharf is a bridge with no ending. But becareful...the wharf may be slippery when wet. Sometimes we grab on to the closet person and pull them over the wharf with us... bigger splash. But try...please try, to stay on the wharf.

Funniest blog thing ever!


The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.

In love, you feel the most alive when your partner is patient and never willing to give up on you.

You'd like to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.

In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily.
What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

Look out weather system moving in


You Are Lightning

Beautiful yet dangerous
People will stop and watch you when you appear
Even though you're capable of random violence

You are best known for: your power

Your dominant state: performing
What Type of Weather Are You?

Back to Frivolity!


The Oscars are like a dream to the rest of us lowly creatures. But it is nice to see a Canadian come up big. Congratulations to Paul Haggis and his best picture "Crash." But who were the real winners?

For best dressed and displaying unmatched practicallity...Sandra Bullock. She is one of my favourites so this may be slightly biased but the girl has pockets. Come on! How cool is that? She tops my list in this midnight blue gown by Angel Sanchez. She also had goddess hair, a brunette worthier than any blonde.





For best dressed and in Jill's favourite colour... Jennifer Lopez. J.Lo. was draped in vintage green from Rita Watnick at Lily et Cie. I used to want to be J. Lo. I've gotten over it but I do own several coordinating leisure suits. The slick back was made for this girl.






For best dressed and likely that I could someday fit into it... Queen Latifah. This Carmen Marc Valvo gown is a stunning complement to this girl's natural beauty. A strong woman, a positive role model, and unquestionably one of the most beautiful women in the world, an inspiration for those of us trying to keep it real. And damn can she sing.





For best dressed and you probably don't know who she is and closest design to my dream wedding dress (if white)...Catherine Keener. I fell in love with this Monique Lhuillier gown. Imagine a similar dress in white tulle, then tell all your male friends to give me a shout. She acted in Capote and I believe her dress was highly over looked by the E-media.




For worst dressed and most disappointing gown choice... Charlize Theron. Cojo actually tied this one for first place with J.Lo. but for me the huge shoulder bow is a NO GO. I mean this Christian Dior gown is 80's meets bondage. It was a disappointing show for such a pretty girl. Her only saving grace was having divinely upswept tresses and make-up that was applied by the kiss of angels.




For worst dressed and most useful in triage... Naomi Watts. This Givenchy gown should never have been made. Such a natural beauty and she looked as if she got locked in a dark gauze supply cupboard in the emergency room. It was actually the colour of bandaids and reminded me of the bandages used to wrap my grandfather's leg. Better luck next year.

Here I go again...knows her stuff


Here are a couple more well researched posts on the seal hunt. The first is less sarcastic than my usual liking as I tend to save serious reading and serious writing for my Academic the second reminds me of a sassy Newfoundlander we all know and love. These are from Cathy, another Canadian Girl who knows her stuff and is a self-proclaimed environmentalist and surprise, finds nothing wrong with a sustainable hunt. (Sorry Cathy for ripping this cartoon from your blog).

Atlantic Canadian Seal Hunt
Rant I've Lost Track

Save the PEI potatoes!


From the pen of the bedridden, I must put forth a post-Larry King Live commentary to dispell the mythical McCartneyisms put forth to a global audience last evening. It wasn't as horrendous as I expected it to be, on either side. This is clearly HER cause. Poor Danny had a hard time being heard. Imagine poor Paul, you may as well stick him in a skirt, barefoot in the kitchen. Pregnant you say? Now that would just be silly.

Heather claims that any REASONABLE person could not justify the seal hunt and should denounce the barbaric, no no I mean archaic practices. Well, I suppose that must make me, my family, my colleagues (all in protected areas and wildlife conservation) a bunch of unreasonable barbaric personalities that sit around the dinner table ripping raw flesh off of animal bones with our teeth.

I don't know too many people who take pleasure in watching another creature ooze blood onto any surface, not just the crisp whiteness of ice. What about the Red Jungle Fowl? It too is unrivalled in beauty. If we put them on an ice flow chopped off their heads and watched them continue to run around, would that be ok? This of course is a chicken. Chicken's didn't always live on farms you know. I first saw one of these in biology class, preserved in taxidermy. But the feathers were so striking up close that I was struck with disbelief. Did I stop eating chicken? No. Do I enjoy watching them slaughtered? Hell no.

Now Danny may have gotten a little rattled towards the end, understandibly, and I would have preferred to see him address the issues put forth to him by Larry King but his tangent wasn't really that unrelated as the "lady" claimed, see Red Jungle Fowl comment. At least Danny knew what planet he was on.

Geography lesson: I know I thing or two about geography, like I am currently in Newfoundland, Newfoundland and PEI are two separate islands and yes separate provinces. However, it might be a more apt cause to save those PEI potatoes. Isn't there some Irish blight or something that warrant a resuce mission?

Now that we have clarified where we are in the world, let's clarify a few more points from last night's telecast:
  • There is NO government subsidy of the seal hunt, this was axed in 2001.
  • Danny was right, most seals are taken with rifles it wasn't RUBBISH.
  • At 5.9 million the population can not sustain itself, it will crash. Therefore, any ecotourism operation would take visitors to watch starving animals.
  • We do not justify the seal hunt soley on the basis of cod stocks, economic impact, or otherwise. We do not give in to boycott tactics, blackmail by another name...still blackmail.
  • The seal hunt is not soley for the benefit of the fashion industry. People do consume seal meat, and not just Northern Peoples. I am a nice well educated conservationist and I eat flipper.
  • This is not inhumane. And I am fairly certain, that the Province of Newfoundland does not bribe the International Council of Veternarians, United Nations, World Widelife Fund, or the IUCN to support the seal hunt, as ridiculously suggested by Lady Mills.
  • Finally, since 1987, they do not hunt white coats, or mothers that are still attending young or young that have not been weaned. They can only take self-reliant, independent creatures.

Hmmm...have I covered it? I'm tired again.

There's a million things that actually need saving...


I have progressed to too sick to want to blog. But I can't let this one slide. Paul McCartney is going to be on Larry King Live tonight and so is our Premier Danny Williams. The issue, the seal hunt. I should remind you that I am a conservationist and a big fan of sexy charismatic megafauna. I am a biocentric and egalitarian and I protect spaces and species for a living and obviously not for the cash.

What's my beef?

First, the Greenpeace video of sealers clubbing white coats has been around since the 60's. It's the same tape that gets replayed a million times.

Second, sealers don't hunt white coats, yes, that's right, there is no hunting of yearlings, cute little seal pups are safe from the big mean sealers, they have been since 1987. The adults have far less TV presence as they are not white, and much less cute. Also, Adults can not be harvested if they are in breeding or birthing grounds, and until their young are self-reliant.

Third, There are millions of seals. How do I know? I have seen the aerial photos from which the population estimates are generated. A professor in my department counted them...well estimated really, all 5.9 million, triple what is was in the 1970's, and that is just harp seals. I'm sure he could have done with ~ 250,000 less black dots to count.

Fourth, Hakapiks or clubs, originated with Norwegian sealers who found it very effective. Studies between 1969 and 1972 proved that the club or hakapik is an efficient tool designed to kill the animal quickly and humanely. A 2002 report published in the Canadian Veterinary Journal had results that parallel these findings, although most are killed with rifles. This is far less inhumane that chicken concentration camps and fox farms.

Fifth,
let's worry about a real conservation threat, Climate Change (of course our new Prime Minister thinks it's a myth). In our life time we WILL see the extinction of Polar Bears. Climate Change is bad news for the north. Or maybe you animal rights people would like to see disappearing ice? I mean no ice, no hunting, right? Yeah...brilliant mathematics there.

I am all about protecting our country's wildness but didn't your folks tell you to do your homework? If you are going to go around waving your fame and fortune in the name of some great cause...make sure it is a great cause. Of all the things that need saving in this world... Children, Polar Bears, Tigers, Iberian Lynx, Red Wolves, etc... people have to save what we have millions of. Well would people mind if we were squishing beatles. Sorry Brits, but your popularity rating has slid by 4 popularity points today.

Who Knew? Googlism Knew.


I am at home sick. Once again working from home does not entitle me to real sick days. I mean if I can blog, I can type right? The newest webpage I have discovered is Googlism.
