Food for thought...
Yes, we are in crazy times.
"Perspective" is a topic I'm always discussing...
There are those of you out there that are "rolling with the punches", (and yes you know who you are). Just another "adjustment" on the road of life. But, "what is life?".
I've had far too much going on in my life in the last while, but here's something that does give me some perspective.
Possibly soon I may come up with something original, (although there is a work in progress about my self isolation during this COVID-19 pandemic, I like the title of "Fear and Loathing in Fort Saskatchewan"), my can/bottle return for the first 5 weeks of self isolation was $53! (and that was by myself!).
I'm not even going to get into the fact that our now legalized cannabis stores are considered an "essential service", hence open every day, is an incredible advancement from the past, (just thought of another post...), I picked up some "Mango Taffie" today, frigging amazing, (rated at 22% THC), what else are you going to do during self quarantine?
I'm especially curious as to Ian Weinberg
I sincerely hope that everyone is well during this growing period...

We’re a resourceful bunch Randy. Home brews and bartering has been lively. Let’s just say that we’ve kept the organs primed for the great opening on Monday!

Well Ian Weinberg, I am looking forward to reading that article when you're done. LMAO! Please don't burn your lips, we use hemostats to help us with that, (isn't that what they're made for?) I must say mate that I'm very sorry about the crisis going on in SA at the moment. Due to the fact that your government has deemed alcoholic libations as "non-essentials" and closed all of your liquor stores you now have a glut of beer, thousands of gallons apparently, that has to be dumped/discarded. In the famous words of Dr. Spock, "It is not logical". Really brings a tear to my eye, literally. Hang in there buddy and stay safe.

HaHa!Harvey Lloyd I remember seeing "Reefer Madness"in the 70's at the university student union weekly movie night for it's entertainment and comic relief value. It was shown in a double feature along with "The Rocky Horror Picture Show". I'm sure that you can imagine what a night that was. "Reefer Madness" was made in 1936. Great to hear from you buddy!

Good to hear from you Ken Boddie. I heard a quote the other day that made me laugh; "We finally had "Cinco de Mayo" coinciding with "Taco Tuesday" this year but a sickness named after a Mexican beer prevented us from celebrating it"
