If you miss next time, there will be consequenses! Interestingly enough, I found your site because my application for nangreaves.ca was rejected; but I'm happy someone is putting the domain name to good use. Now for a new name... hmmm... Be well.

I finally read through your 'Life Story' - it's an interesting read. I still have a hard time believing that you've gone through all of that in such a short time. I'm not sure if I know anyone else who is as ambitious as you. Looking forward to the next casino / hiking excursion, which will be... hmm, prolly 13 days from now. Wonder how much Jill will waste this time.

"I'm about to drop the hammer and dispense some indiscriminant justice!!" -Terran siege tank driver from Starcraft and my design quotes: "Less is more" -probably Le Corbusier "Less is bore" -Michele de Lucci I think They're both right at times. In the case of our web site I went de Lucci's way. Can't wait to bike accross Canada with you this summer!

Dear Kirk, You have a really great web site here, I can tell you put alot of work into it. It's a great success! We have been friends since as far back as the two of us can remember and I am so glad we have stayed close throughout the years. Growing up we were truly inseperable and I wouldn't even know where to begin to write down all that we have seen and shared. I know that whatever you do you will be successful! Never stop dreaming and remember that you will always have a friend in me to take on the world with. Your Best Friend Caroline

Comments: Hi Kirk, After moving to California, I think the following will be how you feel about snow Canada when you get back here Canadian Winter... by a Californian. DEC. 4 5:00 It started to snow. The first of the season & the wife & I took out our hot buttered rum & sat by the window, watching the soft flakes drift down, clinging to the trees & covering the ground. It was beautiful. DEC. 9 We awoke to a big beautiful blanket of crystal white snow covering the landscape. What a fantastic sight. Every tree & shrub covered with a beautiful white mantle. I shoveled snow for the first time in years. And I loved it. I did both our driveway and our sidewalk. Later, the snowplow came along and covered up our driveway with compacted snow from the street. He smiled and I waved back. I shoveled it again. DEC. 13 The sun has melted most of our lovely snow. Oh well, I’m sure we’ll get a little more before this lovely winter is through. DEC. 14 It snowed 8 inches last night & the temperature dropped to about 0. Shoveled the sidewalk & driveway again. Shortly after, the snowplow came by & did his trick again. DEC. 15 Sold our car and bought a 4 X 4 Blazer, so we could get around in the snow. Bought snow tires for the pick-up. DEC. 18 Fell on my ass on the ice in the driveway. $123.00 to the chiropractor, but nothing was broken, thank god. The damn sky is getting dark again. DEC. 19 Still cold (-5 this A.M.), icy roads, making for very tough driving. Slid into a guard rail with my wife’s car. Probably $2,000 damage or so. She’s all pissed off. DEC. 20 Had another 14 inches of the white shit last night. More shoveling in store for me today. That goddamn snowplow came by twice. DEC. 22 We’re assured of a white Christmas, because another 7 inches of that white shit fell today & with this freezing weather, it won’t melt till August. I got all dressed up to go out & shovel that shit again (boots, jump suit, jacket, scarf, earmuffs, gloves, etc.), then I got the urge to pee! DEC. 24 If I ever catch the son-of-a-bitch that drives the snowplow, I’ll drag him through the snow by his balls. I think he hides around the corner & waits for me to finish shoveling, & then comes down the street 100 miles an hour & throws that white shit everywhere. DEC. 25 Merry Christmas, they predict 12 more inches of the fucking white shit tonight. Does anyone know how may goddamn shovelfuls of snow 12 inches is? To hell with Santa, he doesn’t have to shovel that white shit. The snowplower came by asking for a donation. I hit him with my ice axe. The doctors think he’ll live. DEC. 28 We got 11 more inches. I must be going snow blind or have a severe case of depression, because the wife is beginning to look good to me. DEC. 29 The toilet froze & the roof is starting to cave in. If you go outside, don’t eat the brown snow. DEC. 30 I torched the goddamn house & moving back to California. Good job on your web page!
