published July 30/08: Vasectomies and Gas Prices

What can I say? This is another one on how much "mileage" all this concern over gasoline prices is getting. I just saw a connection here... and who knows?

published July 25/08: Leash Free Dog Park


I submitted these two on the dog park. They published the top one. I was pleased. I like the bottom one, too. And no disrespect was intended to any dog.... this is just their nature.

published July 23/08: Tall Ships visit Owen Sound

Besides publicizing the arrival of a couple of tall ships to our harbor, this is just a silly exaggeration on the lengths people will go to in order to "save" money on gasoline... but then again, people will drive out of their way or line up for 10 or 15 minutes to save a few pennies or a couple of dollars...

If they end up cramming 60 housing units onto that lot where O.S.C.V.I. used to be, there will be no green area for the occupants to go and sit in and enjoy some semblance of nature. Their backyards will be very tiny and bare. A commons area with some sort of garden or at least trees and sitting area would be nice. Some actually said this is not necessary because of all the "parks" in the immediate area. This cartoon addresses this issue.

Congestion has been happening on 10th St. for as long as I've been in the area, and that's over 15 years... and I suspect it was a problem before that, too... and it will continue to be a problem until someone builds another bridge connecting east and west... maybe somewhere around 11th or 12th street... but since that's not likely to happen anytime soon, I'm not sure a whole lot will change.
