“Organic” Is The Latin Word For “Grown In Pig Shit”
Costco is recalling Organic by Nature brand frozen Organic Sweet Peas due to possible Listeria contamination.
Completely impractical
But very cool, nonetheless.
I’m not sure I could be that pilot though, three days from Hawaii to the Bay Area, allowed only 20 minute catnaps, and then that whole bathroom thing.
I wonder if anyone is working on the X-Plane model. I might pick it up, at least if I get tired of flying my new BD-100!
Primary Flight Display (left) and Multi-Function Display (right). En-route to Lewiston, Idaho to ‘pick up the dog handler’. Just about to cross over the border south of Lethbridge. Flying M0.8 at 33,000ft.
Sure, taking a Challenger 300 on a hop to pick-up dogs might seem frivolous to you, but for me, it’s a wonderful way to spend a Sunday morning. It’s also a whole lot faster than taking the PA-32 Cherokee.
Mayor Nenshi’s no good, awful, terrible weekend.
“How we found registered sex offenders, I don’t want to know. And people with convictions for violent crimes, I don’t want to know why we know those people.
“They all made it through Uber’s theoretical background screening.”
Bonus quote of the story, “We’re no fools.”
Foreign meddling in Brexit
Now Clinton is jumping in to pump up the Brussels regime.

1/ Unfortunate hearing President Obama tell the UK that it goes to the "back of the queue" on trade if it votes for independence from the EU

As an aside, does anyone else find it somewhat humorous that the Americans are pushing the UK to be subject to an unrepresentative governing body?
Cruz’s last gasp
Cruz has two two goals.
Stop Trump from getting 1237 before the convention and ensure the delegates for the subsequent votes.
Probably shouldn’t discount Kasich either. It’s not like conventions haven’t a history of third place coming up the middle. (Waves at Alberta)
It will be a fun day of television.

Like the weather.
Wait five minutes, it’ll change.
“Now that he is backtracking substantially on that, and even a 10 year elimination,” Bell said, “I gather that his advisers have brought him a bit more up to speed on the deficit/debt situation.”
At least this position is grounded in reality. (an odd thing for this candidate, so we’ll see if this time it lasts)

The march to 2019:
- The bad news budget in the first/second year.
- Disavowal of the extremist elements.
- Deals for pipelines.
- and now coming out strong for oil.
To come:
- Some populist social program that really irks the right, to which WR/PC’s overreact.
- Tax reductions.
- Urban directed programs.
- Amendments to Bill 6, softening it up considerably.
- A very public fight with some union, nurses and/or teachers probably.
- Another very public fight with a big hated corp.
- Oil price recovery.
The right in Alberta better get their act together or they’re going to lose again. I can lie and say I have high hopes, but given current trends in politics, die hards will dictate direction and the perfect will be the undoing.
At least we’ll still be able to laugh at the commies in Alberta.

Are you ready for the big one?
The threat a massive tsunami hitting the Pacific Northwest has concerned scientists for years.
Experts say an event of this kind occurs roughly every 400-600 years, and the area is overdue a similar quake that could leave thousands dead or displaced.

Bill’s Wife
Hillary’s breathtaking lack of concrete achievements or even minimal initiatives over her long public career doesn’t faze her admirers a whit. They have a religious conviction of her essential goodness and blame her blank track record on diabolical sexist obstructionists. When at last week’s debate Hillary crassly blamed President Obama for the disastrous Libyan incursion that she had pushed him into, her acolytes hardly noticed. They don’t give a damn about international affairs–all that matters is transgender bathrooms and instant access to abortion.
