Return To Normal

Last night Hank shut his phone off early and was the only local that didn't post photos of the Aurora Borealis.

Audrey and Boyd also missed out as they were busy watching two weeks of Entertainment Tonight they PVR'd.

Now that everyone is done remembering and honouring the lives lost protecting the world from authoritarianism, it's now time to focus on the Dark Season of Mass Consumption in the Name Of Jesus.

If you only think of one thing today, may you remember that two world wars were fought to defeat fascism, Nazism and authoritarianism yet many Canadians seem to embrace those values and are threatening democracy...

The Rogue City Diner will be closed this week while our staff attends classes at the Sysco School of Culinary Arts so we can remain competitive with the top eateries in town during the Dark Season of Mass Consumption in The Name of Jesus.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

MP Chris d'Entremont says he crossed the floor and joined the Liberals because of Poilievre's leadership style.

Mayor96 wanted to join the CONS because of Poilievre's leadership and polling numbers but local voters had a better grasp of common sense...

Meanwhile, on the playing fields of Parliament:

PA Announcer: "Now batting for the Cons, Andrew Sheer."

Dan: "Well Buck, they seem to understand this is an important time of the game."

Buck: "Nyah, unfortunately the Cons don't have a deep bench to pinch hit for Poilievre."

Perhaps one good thing to come of Mayor96's idea to include "other public places," such as sidewalks in the "Child Safety Zones" is that the municipal sidewalks might get plowed sooner rather than later after a snowfall so the children don't have to walk on the bare, plowed roads...

We will not be adjusting our time measuring devices this evening because the government has no right over our personal continued sequence of existence and events that occur in an apparently irreversible succession from the past.

"Local tourism groups, like Kingston Accommodation Partners, have questioned the figures provided by VIA to maintain 154 weekly service stops as seemingly high."

Back in 2020, the City build a rail overpass because they said 50 trains per day was inconvenient for motorists...

FACT CHECK:
Masking to hide one's identity on October 31 is socially acceptable.

Masking to protect one's health every day is suspect.

Return To Normal

Hank plants deciduous trees on the south and west of his yard to provide shade on the house for the future when electricity is too unaffordable and/or unavailable to power the A/C

Audrey and Boyd think trees are messy and despise leaves on their lawn.
