Yeah.  So a mere week ago, 5100km away, my boss tearfully came to me and said they were reconsidering the new hire.  (That was me).  A victim of the poor economy.

Sold everything I owned to get there, the great White North, in search of a better future.  Now, after a… Read full post »

The SOB nearly had me.  I found myself lured to her site like a bear to a honey smeared trap.  Like a Vampire to a transfusion at an HIV centre!  Like Jim Cramer to a Stewart interview!  

Oh great, says I,  another "Dr." Laura espousing self-serving g… Read full post »

I'm living in a town of 401 people about 300 miles south of Alaska.  There's a native band and government workers.  My accomodation's paid for.  I'm in a relatively good position.

I own a laptop and an ipod, and some clothes.  That's what I have.  I carry a debtload of $130.0… Read full post »

I'm entirely out of line.  I'm in Canada.  What do I know?  Two terms.  For two terms, somebody let George W. Bush run your country into the ground.  Everyone knew.  We all saw it happenning.  We wondered, "How can you let that man in a second time?".  &nb… Read full post »

Employment Insurance is doing an investigation as… Read full post »

I'll be leaving Kamloops for the Yukon territory.  And given the tight timeline I have in moving myself to the Canadian North, I have to fly.  there is simply no time to get my car into sufficient shape to travel the 2300km along the Alaskan highway.

Yet again, everything I own,… Read full post »

The telephone, I hear it ring

I guess I'm off to entertain

I should not have looked at Winona Sue

the prettiest girl in grade four

So, Johnny Kerpucket, he scored

I wasn't looking at the dirt covered lot

I'm Trevor.  I just got fired.  And I don't care.  If it weren't for things like not being homeless and having to eat, I'd probably care even less.
