More Ramblings from Queen Street

Face it America, It's Obama or the ice Queen...good luck.

Bozone Layer:The substance surrounding stupid people that stops bright ideas from penetrating. The bozone layer unfortunately shows little sign of breaking down in the near future.

I feel sorry for people that don't drink. When they wake up in the morning that is the best they are going to feel all day.

850 peanuts are needed to make one 18 oz jar of peanut butter.

I don't know why some people don't believe in sex before marriage. Hell it is a lot more believable than sex after marriage.

I bet those gangster rappers aren't that tough at all. Hell my 90 year old uncle can swear just as good as them and he wears pants that are 3 sizes too big as well.

I finally figured out why waiters give you their first names. it is in case you have to file a missing persons report after a couple of hours.

If at first you don't succeed, then sky diving is not for you.

Support bacteria: It's the only culture some people have

War does not determine who is right,it determines who is LEFT

Crazy is a relative term in my family.

Best friends are the people that know all about you and still put up with you.

I fought the lawn and the lawn won.

A day without sunshine is like,you know, night.

I wonder who was the first person who looked at a chicken and thought"I am going to eat the first thing that comes out of it's ass".

Abandon the search for truth, settle for a good fantasy.

And remember BUCKLE UP. It makes it harder for the aliens to suck you out of your car.

For the Love of the game

The 1951-52 Elmira Polar Kings. They won the Ontario Intermediate"B" championship in a 9 game series against Bracebridge that year. These guys all had to work for a living and played hockey for the love of the game. My father is the goaltender on the right of the picture facing us. He lived in Hespeler, but drove to Elmira to play his passion.

How Come?

The holidays are over and it is time to back to real life, but first, over the Christmas season my Grand-Children asked me some really weird questions. So here are a few of them that i can remember.

Why is the cashew the only nut you can not buy in the shell?
How come our fingers are different sizes and shapes?
Why does the moon seem to follow us when you drive?
Why does ice cream give you brain freeze?
Why does ice cream melt?
Why do songs get stuck in your head?
How come birds can sit on electrical wires?
Where do bugs go in the winter?
Why are bubbles round?
How come the sky is blue?
Why do leaves change color in the fall?

and finally...why is smoke coming out of your ears grandpa?
