Lig Update.
I still don’t have an internet connection, I got fed up waiting for Primus to do something and went back to Bell. They are coming next Friday to upgrade the wiring here to high speed, then I’ll probably have to wait till they send a modem and hook me up. That will make it over a month. I’ve changed my bank acct so Primus can’t take any money out, they’ve billed me in spite of not providing internet service, my old server, VIF are threatening me with a collection agency for the next year’s payment even though I am no longer on line with them, what is it with these people? Bell is a bit more expensive but at least you know you’re dealing with a legitimate company.
Meantime I don’t have time on line to even keep up with my e-mail, I get to read a few of my favourite blogs and that’s it.
Otherwise I’m doing a seven day work week, got a bit behind schedule, the family is fine, got a few grand kid pics to post, also have the April Tree Pic, didn’t get one for March, it was mostly dull nondescript weather, there was no point trying.
Zee, I hope you are over your ‘bug’, sorry I’m not here to help out, how are you feeling now? Hey, at least spring is here with the summer to look forward to, my favourite time of year.
I wonder how many of you know of George Jonas, he writes in The National Post here in Canada, here is a sample column, this one on Israel’s 60′th birthday.
This week, about 100 prominent British Jews saw fit to publish a letter in the Guardian newspaper to outline why they’re not celebrating the birthday of a state that is, they say, “inflicting a monstrous collective punishment on the civilian population of Gaza and that continues to deny to Palestinians their human rights and national aspirations. We will celebrate when Arab and Jew live as equals in a peaceful Middle East.”
Do playwright Harold Pinter, Professor Haim Bresheeth, actress Miriam Margolyes, broadcaster Mike Rosen, and their friends really believe that it is Israel that stands in the way of Arabs and Jews living as equals in a peaceful Middle East? I don’t know what they believe, but that’s what they say.
Delusional? Well — the signatories are said to be well-oriented to time and place, can feed themselves, count backwards from 100 and tie their own shoelaces. Go figure.
Cya all!

Ligneus, you poor soul, what a mess. I am sorry that you have to put up with that.
You astound me, and then you worry me… I thought slowing down was the game plan. I want you to concentrate on your photography. My guess is you will be able to earn a nice living if you have a chance of setting up shop on line.
As for my bug, it lingers but it isn’t knocking the wind out of me as it did initially. I’m fighting the blue funk more than anything lately, using all my well used tricks to keep the howling dogs of depression at bay. I insist that they do not exist. Old habits of magical thinking are sometimes useful….
We’ll be looking forward to your return and those pictures.
