Vegreville Second Screen

Filed under: Miscellaneous — Dean Welsh @ 11:35 pm

Scott and I saw Chronicles of Riddick. It wasn\’t \”Good\” but it was a \”Super-rad buttkicking action movie\” I haven\’t seen one of those in a good long while.

Riddick played on Vegreville\’s Screen two. I want to see more films on screen 2. It\’s teeny tiny. Most people would complain about that sort of thing. But small screen=in focus and not Overly magnified (unlike most of the mega-theater complexes where they blow the picture up until the film grain is the size of your head.) I approve.

On a Green, Environment, Bug note…

I saw one of these in my garden for the first time.

Only reason I could think for it to be up here was the same as the Brits figure.

Beetles

Filed under: Photo/Art Post — Dean Welsh @ 4:15 am

I did some research I\’m pretty sure it\’s a Citrus Longhorned Beetle or an Asian Longhorned Beetle. Either way. No natural predators around here, so… bad news for trees. Smush em if you see em.

EDIT:http://www.na.fs.fed.us/spfo/alb/pubs/alb_wss/alb_wss.htm

White Scutellum=Whitespotted Sawyer Beetle, George\’s Experts trump dean\’s Quick longhorned beetle Google search every time.

Strongest in Alberta. How about that? I wouldn\’t have expected that in a million years.

Cars

Filed under: Miscellaneous — Dean Welsh @ 5:10 am

Did you know a 1912 Model T Ford with 35 miles per gallon was more fuel efficient than all but one of Fordís 2003 models?

That said, Smart Cars will be arriving in Canada at the end of this year.

I am seriously going to start saving money for one right now.

More simply put.

Filed under: That is my Story... — Dean Welsh @ 7:23 pm

People might not follow my earlier post, so here it is very simply.

At $414 per animal, Grandpa has about 20 animals and got $201.60

How does that math work?

Do you think the Alberta government might just possibly be biased in who they\’re giving our money to?

Cor Van Reey Farms ltd. $28,870,730.51
If they\’re getting the same amount as grandpa, then this one company has roughly one cow for every person in Alberta, somehow I doubt that.
