Coffee and God
Apparently coffee is from God.
Wanda, my annoyingly intellegent int... ? assistant was telling me about how some shephard boy in Ethiopia some years ago (1984 I think) was out tending his goats (yes - goats have shepards too!) and the goats were nibbling on these weird bushes with red berries. As it turns out these were coffee bushes.
Anyway, as the story goes, the goats loved the berries so much that they started dancing around in circles, on their hind legs, due to the goodness of the coffee.
So you've got goats, dancing around in a circle, maybe singing or chanting (okay maybe not that bit) and they're on their hind legs, red eyed and high on coffee beans... and so obviously this shephard take this as a sign from God! - well, of course, goats dancing around on their hind legs usually symbolizes that something good is about to happen. - I think there might have been fire and flames somewhere there too.
Well, anyway, so Wanda tells me, THIS IS STUPOISD.... (HA HA A )
Ahhh, how do I delete this stuff??!!! - Hank get off my blog man!
Ok, so I ...where was I - oh yeah, so Wanda tells me, the shepard runs a smaple pack of the beans (from the Strabucks bushes), over to the local monestry - you know, where monks live.
They made a stew out of them and had it for supper.
They really liked it because what they found (as many of us have found also) is that the stew of coffee beans kept them awake all night and alert - so it was perfect for their early morning prayer rituals!
So of course they declared that coffee must be a gift from Gid! --God!!!
So there you go, that was my point. Or my story anyway. Or Wanda's story that I retold.
I need a coffee.

What's better? Starwars or Startrek?
I wonder what's better. StarWars? Or StarTrek? I dunno, its a tough one.
THATS WHAT SHE SAID!!
Hey Hank! Get off my blog!!
Sorry about Hank - I mean, not just for him writing on my blog - which is rude, but sorry, just in general.
Anyway I think they are both good. They both have 'star' in them, for a start. Actually 'start' also has 'star' in it. So maybe 'Start" is better than both StarWars and StarTrek. Well, its somewhere to start in any case.
So both have futuristic lazer thingys, and both have various types of aliens. Both travel to other planets. And both have several spin off series from the original.
You could argue for ages I suppose. Is Spock better than Kirk? Is Indiana Jones better than Han Solo? Should Luke marry his sister Laya? - oh wait...not that's not right - I mean really not right. But you know what I mean I think.
So what's the point of arguing about which fictional character is better than the other one. They're both not real.
Not like me and my mate Hank, eh Hank? Hank? Hank?
Well, tuning off now - or whatever it is we do when we stop. Maybe stopping. Yeah thats it. Ok - so stopping now, Brent Leroy (who lives in the REAL world!) signing off.
well stopping anyhow.

Long Time Doin Nuthin
Hi All,
Brent Leroy here again from Corner Gas - at least that's what I do call my own business. It is my own. I bought it off my dad ages ago, - well, when I say 'bought' I didn't really pay anything for it - of course, I do pay for it - every single day of my life now. Dad is always around here trying to help - or not help as it actually would really be. Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like without dad, and mum, and the business..... I wonder... I wonder.....
...whoa...what was that?!
Anyway just thought I'd log back into the interweb and see if anyone was still listening - or whatever it is that internet people do all day. - hmmm, now I really sound like my dad.
Just for an update, since my last post I've been...well, I've been here. Ummm....
Well tune in for next time I guess. Don't really have much more to say. Happy holidays? Thats what us Canadians say ay?
BRENT CAN"T SPELL!!!!!!!!! HA HA HA HA HA!!!!! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>..............
What? Sorry my 'friend' Hank wrote that bit.
well...here's a cool video - bye!
