Last night at lodge was

fun. Our stand in SD did an excellent presentation. We had a great debate taking place. I had no issues with the music. 

While I never met Ted Turner, he Robert (Ted) Edward Turner III was an American businessman, television producer, media proprietor, and philanthropist. He founded CNN, the first 24-hour cable news channel. Ted Turner had a massive impact 

on professional wrestling. In 1988, he purchased Jim Crockett Promotions and rebranded it as World Championship Wrestling (WCW), which became the primary competitor to Vince McMahon's WWF (now WWE) in the 1990s and helped launch the "Monday Night Wars". I remember the WCW WWF rivalry well. Good times Thanks Ted. He passed May 6th 2026. 

I'm busy tomorrow, leaving out of here about 7:30am for Clareview, and BoB. If possible and there is time, I might be able to make Ye old Craft's festive board, call Shoppers Drug Mart, see if my meds are ready for pick up, and come home to get ready for WWE Backlash. In theory. We'll see how that goes.

I helped Anne fill out

her census which took all of about 10 minutes to do. Very simple. The last survey project we did at work was more time consuming then this. 


Montreal Canadians/Buffalo Sabres are opening round 1 today. This should be a good series. I'm hoping for a Canadian team in the finale. The Habs are our only hope

Last Friday I met a new AASR brother same situaion as me health wise. He encouraged me to apply for a Dissability tax credit. I don't have a family Doctor, so I'm going to a walk in clinic and see if I can get some help. I'll be investigating this next week but this is not an easy process. I'm sure this wont be easy. Anyway, that's all for now.

Lodge music for Thursday is set up and

ready to go. This time, I'm going to make sure the speaker is activated. I'll have all 3 extra piece of music ready as well for June. 

On May 4th, 1933, the discovery of mysterious radio waves from the center of the Milky Way galaxy was described by Karl Jansky in a presentation 

he made to the International Radio Union .Karl Jansky reported his discovery of mysterious, persistent radio waves from the center of the Milky Way  founding the field of radio astronomy. 

We got our census in the mail yesterday. I filled mine out. It took less then ten minutes. It was very easy to do. I'm going  to fill Anne's out later today. Anyway, that's all for now.

A laid back day

today. The highlights of my day was watching BabaLon Facebook channel Monday night Raw earlier.  I also got my music ready for Lodge for Thursday.

Today is Star wars day. To me, Star Wars day was May 21st 1980 because it was such an important day, when I got my tax return in the mail and cashed it that afternoon. Richard Ellen and went through Edmonton Centre and I saw the last few seconds of the New York Islander beat the Flyers. First time an origional six team got beat by one of the "new kids." 


We were going to go to Hobbit's. To get Richard's comic file but we ran into some friends of Richards in the Star Wars line up. They let us in ahead of them. There were a few other things going on before and after that. I cant get into the details, but it was a magical time for me. I was still in my 20's. 

Anne returned from her Clareview Costco outing and gave me a progress report on Wyndham apartment building across the street. The first fire that took out the building by the church was last year.  Building B. When I was at BoB early April, there was a debri field 4 stories tall. Then there was a second fire in the remaining Wyndham building (faceing 137th Ave) April 20th. That was the building that we got out from when they had the fire shortly after that. Anne said every entrance was sealed and taped off in Building A. Our old building is empty. God was watching out for us when we got the call to move here, late February to move here. Anyway, that's all for now.

I was going to buy an Indy game

on Steam (Haunted Lands) but I need to buy my meds next Weekend, and I already bought Snorkel Synth yesterday. It was C $8. I still might get the game yet. We'll see.

World Laughter Day 2026 is celebrated on Sunday, May 3, 2026. This global event, typically held on the first Sunday of May, promotes wellness, joy, and peace through laughter. 

It encourages reducing stress, lowering cortisol levels, and building community through shared laughter, laughter yoga sessions, and comedy

This week I have lodge practice tonight, laptop maintenace (work) Wednesday, Lodge Thursday, another event Saturday and if there is time, on the way home I can stop at Highlands Hall and get to the festive board for some lunch, and home to watch "WWE Backlash." Anyway, that's all for now.

I met a new brother last night

that mentioned about the Dissability tax credit. Too even the casual observer I'm dissabled. I  tried this DTC earlier this year but it was from a 3rd party. After a bit of research, I learned this to be a scam. I'm going to try this through a local Doctor over the summer. I think it's a long shot I think I'm wasting my time, but I have the summer off so what the heck, eh?

Although accounts of a large aquatic creature living in Scotland's Loch Ness date back 1,500 years, the first modern sighting of the Loch Ness Monster was reported in the Inverness Courier on May 2, 1933.


I've had my Steam account for along time before I bought the 2Tb M.2 drive. Prior to that my hard drive space was down to single digit mega bytes. Now that I have more space and Ram in my current upgrade, I tried again but I was locked out. I  uninstalled Steam, created a new folder/destination in my C drive. I was locked out after that. Then I realized mybe I don't log in with my email but my username. I tried the username, and success. Let the games begin! Anyway, that's all for now.

Ducks in 6

I was hoping for a better result but this year was a tough year for the Oilers. There ws very little urgency in this game. Bring on the Off Season follies. 

Walpurgisnacht, a holiday of pagan origins is celebrated in many parts of Europe-- in Germany, witches hold special ceremonies during the night, celebrating the arrival of Spring. No doubt Panfest will observe this. 

Anne returned with some medical magnesium. Apparently it's suposed to help mitigate RLS. I also took a vitamine C pill as well to help with dry eyes. I'm not expecting these to work over night. Yesterd, I went to bed to early, which was my bad. Anyway, that's all for now.
