Trouble on the Farm

Saturday, January 1st, 2000

Hi Neighbour!
Have you got your (Spring Planting) done?
This morning I am reminded of the dire plight of the Farmer. I can very well appreciate his situation because, at heart, I have always been one of them. At the same time, I have always been a member of the Human Race. I suppose this makes me […]

Law and Order

Saturday, January 1st, 2000

Well, Here I am, back to show you another View. The current National, political debate, which should be of concern to each of us, concerns “Law and Order”. The question on the table is in effect, should we allow any foreign or domestic free enterprise interest to get control of our Prison […]

Health Care

Saturday, January 1st, 2000

Hello! - Here I am again:
I am persuaded to share a few thoughts about Health.
This wide-ranging subject of Health Care is pretty much on people’s minds these days, here in Ontario as well as, all across Canada. The U.S. indeed has its own contentious health problems.
We in Canada, Ontario, in particular have a […]

Our Crowded Planet

Saturday, January 1st, 2000

Considering the many hazards of over population on our planet, this web page author from the “Back Forty” is quite concerned about that very contentious subject of Birth Control. I believe that there are acceptable methods without having to resort to artificial Abortion. Nature has her own several birth-control “devices” which medical science is currently […]

Survival

Saturday, January 1st, 2000

Well, here we are again!
I hope that you are still on line, because I wish to talk to you about that very important issue of “Survival”. I recall that it was that eminent biologist, Charles Darwin who propounded the thesis, giving rise to the phrase “Survival of the Fittest”. This, he correctly assumed from his […]

Prophetic Vision

Saturday, January 1st, 2000

Hello there, are you still on line?
I call this, “A Vision for the Twenty-first Century”.
I sat here on my humble Doorstep and gazed into the East as the Sun was setting in the west. This, you must admit, is quite a paradox. But as I saw the sun go down on the twentieth century, I […]

Science Fiction

Saturday, January 1st, 2000

Hello there! Here we are again!
I keep thinking about a very imaginative article, which appeared in the newspaper recently. It told about the probability that some day soon mankind will be able to start colonizing outer space.
With all due respect to the author, James Lovell, as a person, and an Astronaut who had the privilege […]

Education

Saturday, January 1st, 2000

Hello there! Are you still on line?
Well here is another day! It seems like a nice enough day, bright and cheery like! I think that nice things are going to happen to us today. So it’s best to be prepared.
Today, I have a prompting to talk about Education. This important topic is very much in […]

Hello There! Are You On Line Today?

Saturday, January 1st, 2000

I would like to remind you that this is “Our day!”
I did not say “My day”.
It does behove us to use it wisely and well, not just for ourselves, but also for our Neighbours and our Friends — all of those with whom we come into contact!
This is “Our day”!
Yesterday went when the sun […]
