Highway #6: Though the phenomena had been noticed by many before it was humourist writer Douglas Adams in his Hitchhiker's Guide, Life, the Universe and Everything that he described a common effect or field that happens when everyone it seems ignores the obvious.

- Maybe its time for an election
- Wednesday
January 6, 2010
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: For the second year in a row the Prime Minister for reasons known only to himself has shut down parliament. Without the hustle of the daily question period and being called on the actions he and his government takes they can put their feet up and there is nothing anyone can do about it. If he does not want to be Prime Minister in a democracy then perhaps its time he had an opportunity to go back to his separatist roots in Calgary.

- A new year and a new decade
- Wednesday
December 30, 2009
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: There is no known cure for the continuous pressure of time. So it is that once again a year and a decade draws to a close and we must look into the coming year and the coming decade to consider what may befall us as time moves onward. This tradtion of making predictions for the coming year extends backward through the history of this web site and far beyond that. There have been times when the predictions have come to pass and other times when the future was simply of the specs. This year will be no better and perhaps no worse than others.

- We call it Christmas
- Wednesday
December 23, 2009
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: This truly one of those things that seems remarkably unrelated to its name. Evergreen trees decorated, Father Christmas, Santa Claus, Frosty the snowman, Rudolph the Rednosed reindeer, mistletoe, holly, gift giving, egg nog. . . the list is endless and all of these familiar things are only marginally related to the birth of Jesus of Nazareth 2009 years ago, give a decade one way or the other. So indeed what is this "season" really all about?

- Reuse and recycle
- Tuesday
December 22, 2009
by: Ken Styan
Tisdale: Though we in Tisdale prefer to recycle paper products rather then have them go off to the landfill but alas that is simply no longer an option in our community. Ken has come up with one way he can make use of something that we all throw away.

Tisdale: Construction in Tisdale looks like it is going right to the end of the year as this week the nineteenth housing start of the year. This involved a number of houses moved into Tisdale both nearly new and old but also two duplex, one triplex and a fourplex which actually means that their were 26 housing units created in Tisdale during this calendar year. Number 19 is being assembled by Farber Construction and is located on the north loop of Forrester.

by: Timothy W. Shire
Prince Albert: Fender benders look pretty harmless until you are in one and the force of the smash is astonishing. While in the flow of traffic last Thursday night the third vehicle to cross on a green light we were struck by another vehicle who attempted to get through a red light and we were in the way. A successful shopping trip ended in a very broken car and for me really sore ribs.

Now the time has come for Martin Doyle to sell this thriving business so it can continue to service this and surrounding communities.

- New Mac Mini
- Tuesday
December 8, 2009
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Almost microscopic in comparison to the five year old G5 Macintosh that it replaces. This is a 2.53Ghz dual core Intel processor computer with 4 GB of memory, a 350 GB drive, a two sided DVD burner and except for a little brick of a power supply what you see in the picture is the whole story. The wireless antenna and Bluetooth antenna is in the top and it is hooked up to two 23 in screens and a new wireless "magic mouse." The operating system is "Snow Leopard" 10.6.2.

Saskatoon: The lake froze over on November 24th but it has gotten pretty chilly in Saskatoon. Gerald is concerned about the hazards of winter travel but got a real kick out of a huge craft fair this past weekend. Thanks to Mike Tatarynovich we have an excellent family picture of the Crawfords.
