Don't take it personally , it's their loss not yours

Alberta checking in to say- OK and have a good day EH!

Gemini-but there is only one of me

I was going to tell you something... but I forgot what it was

His drinking was his own choice but I feel that maybe I should of tried
harder to help him

I'm dealing with the death of a work mate today! We could see it coming but how
do you help someone who doesn't want help. Myself and two others tried on Friday
to stage a bit of an intervention, we even got management at work to talk to him
to offer help but he just brushed it off, said he was fine even though you could tell
just by looking at him that he was in some serious shape. Saturday at work was the
last time I talked to him, he was found early Sunday morning collapsed by his truck
and by 2am today cirrhosis of the liver had taken him. Now I'm thinking that maybe there
was more that I should of done, could of done. Not only am I filled with sadness
but also some guilt which I know I shouldn't feel. Maybe talking to the other guy's
at work will help

No expectations......

No disappointments......

The Lone Ranger and Tonto went camping in the desert. After they got their tent
all set up,both men fell sound asleep.

Some hours later, Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says, Kimosabe,
Look toward sky; What do you see?

The Lone Ranger replies," I see millions of stars."

" What that tell you?" asked Tonto

The Lone Ranger ponders for a minute then says; " Astronomically speaking,
it tells me there are millions of galaxies." " Time wise, it appears to be approximately
a quarter past three in the morning." " Theologically, the Lord is all powerful,
and we are small and insignificant."
" Meteorologically, it seem we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does
it tell you Tonto?"

" You dumber than buffalo dung. Someone stole tent "

If ever you want a real adventure, come up to Churchill, Manatoba. Canada and you can get
so close to the real bears you could touch them

A fleeing Taliban, desperate for water, was plodding through the Afghanistan desert when he
saw something far off in the distance. Hopping to find water, he hurried toward the object,
only to find a little old jewish man at a small stand selling ties.

The Taliban asked, " Do you have water "

The jewish man replied, " I have no water. would you l like to buy a tie ? "
They are only $5.

The Taliban shouted " Idoit!, I do not need an over priced tie. I need water!
I should kill you, but I must find water first."

" OK " Said the old jewish man, " It does not matter that you do not want to by a tie and
that you hate me. I will show you that I am bigger than that. If you continue over that
hill to the east for about two miles, you will find a lovely restaurant. It has all the ice water
you need. Shalom."

Muttering, the Taliban staggered away over the hill. Several hours he staggered back,
almost dead.

" Your ****ing brother won't let me in without a tie!"

TWO WOLVES

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people

He said " My son"' the battle is between two wolves inside us all

" One is Evil "- It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity,
guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

" The other is Good "- It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence,
empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: " Which Wolf Wins? "

The old Cherokee simply replied, " The one you feed. "

I laughed......Thanks

A chinook is a warm dry wind that blows over to the east side of the rocky mountains,

It comes up from California, only a couple of places in the world where this phenomena

happens, It's great but the dry air plays nasty with the sinuses

At least in southern Alberta we have chinooks to look forward to. Amen !
