“Selfie fever” “Selfie Fever” has begun to sully the sacred Islamic pilgrimages to Mecca, according to scholars who complained to Arab News in September. What for cen-turies has been a hallowed journey in-tended to renew the spirit of Islam (that all Muslims are called upon to experi-ence at least once) has come, for some in the so-called “Facebook era,” to resem-ble a trip to Disneyland, with visitors to the Sacred Mosque texting friends the “evidence” of their piety. (Another scholar complained in a New York Times opinion piece in October that Mecca is often experienced more as a tour pack-aged by marketers and centered around Mecca’s upscale shopping malls rather than religious structures.)

Virtual Football ......

New York Giants tight end Larry Donnell manages his own fantasy league team by “drafting” NFL play-ers for virtual competitions based on their real-life statistics of the previous weekend. Donnell lamented to New Jersey’s The Record in October that he had benched virtual “Larry Don-nell” on his fantasy team the week before because he thought his other tight end (“Vernon Davis”) would do better. In reality, real Donnell had a career-high game, with his three touchdowns leading the real Giants to a 45-14 victory. However, Donnell’s fantasy team lost badly because virtual Larry Donnell (and his weekend statistical bonanza) was on Donnell’s bench. [WCBS-TV, 10-2-2014]

My son-in-law Matt has a great-looking Darth Vader mask. One year at

Halloween, a friend asked if he could borrow it. Matt agreed, and on

Halloween night, his friend came by to pick it up. Matt was surprised that his

friend was dressed in his usual attire of jeans and a flannel shirt, with the addition

of a black cowboy hat.

“Where’s your costume?” Matt asked.

“This is it,” his friend replied.

“Well, what are you supposed to be?” Matt inquired.

His friend answered, “Darth Brooks.”

My dad took my four- and five-year-old brother and sister fishing on his boat. They were asking about his fish finder, and he said that it

shows how deep the lake is. He told them it was 20 feet deep, and my sister looked amazed and then asked,

‘Whose feet? Yours or mine?’”-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------When my niece was four or five, I asked her what she wanted to

be when she grew up. She calmly looked at me and said, ‘I want to be the person who

paints the lines on the road.‘ It made me laugh so hard because it was so far out there.”

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------One day I walked into my three year old daughters room ....

that looked like a clothing store had threw up in it not to mention the dolls crayons and toys scattered around ...

I was like wow your room is a mess!! Her reply... I know..can you believe this?!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------As we were walking through the store, my 4.5 yr old daughter

looks at me and asks,“Why do I always have to match my clothes and you don’t?”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Overheard from a 4 year old to his mother:

“Mommy, I love you, but we seem to have our differences.” from the 4 year old at bedtime.

Hi Neighbours: 

Council is working with our commercial and industrial partners to ensure Kindersley’s sustainability. 

One of the  issues we are trying to find a satisfactory solution to  is truck parking on the service roads. Safety and economic development are in tension with sustainability. Actions taken by the Town to date include: constructing sidewalks,  curbs,  and  gutters;  installing  light  standards,  and  restricting  parking.  However,  the  challenge  with parking is still there.  

Some people allege that the Town needs to recognize that we are an oil and gas town and shouldn’t choke the golden goose, so to speak, by being too restrictive either through more parking restrictions or Pay for Parking. The economic development concern is that truckers would move out of town and not use local hotels and restaurants. We have been told that one hotel has experienced a slow down due to restrictive parking. However, it should be noted that some companies shuttle their drivers to the hotel; this was also done in the past.  

Economic  development  accentuates  the  need  for  sustainability  since  more  heavy  trucks  accelerates  the deterioration of the roads. Perhaps you have noticed the state of the shoulders and the wear on the service roads?  

The safety issue also has to be considered. Sadly, about four years ago, tragedy resulted when a man crossed 11th Ave near the Kindersley Inn. That brings extra emphasis to these safety considerations: 

The sidewalk along 11th is heavily used by pedestrians, and kids are often nearby using Rotary Field; 

The service road is not wide enough nor is it designed for heavy truck parking; 

Some of the trucks have dangerous goods posing a safety risk for the neighbourhood and town. 

Policy  GP.0  in  Council’s  Policy  Manual  states:  “The  purpose  of  the  Council,  on  behalf  of  the  ratepayers  of Kindersley, is to see to it that the Town of Kindersley (a) achieves appropriate results for appropriate persons at an appropriate cost and (b) avoids unacceptable actions and situations.” 

We are working with our partners to find an acceptable solution for everyone. We want to ensure the safety of our residents while still providing safe parking and  lodging for those needing temporary accommodation; to support our  local  industry and promote economic development, and to do so  in a way that  local residents don’t have to unreasonably bear the cost of subsidizing repairs for premature road degradation. 

Please write or phone  if you would  like me to discuss a particular topic. If you have any questions or comments, drop me a line at the town office or email me at mayorenns‐wind@kindersley.ca. You can also check out my blog at http://mayorjohn.blogspot.ca/. I appreciate your feedback. 

A woman, whose husband often came home drunk, decided to cure him of the habit. One Halloween night, she put on a devil suit and hid behind a tree to intercept him on the way home. When her husband came by, she

jumped out and stood before him with her red horns, long tail, and pitchfork. “Who are

you?” he asked. “I’m the Devil!” she responded. “Well, come on home with me,”

he said, “I married your sister!”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------A ghost had been staying in a bed and breakfast hotel and when he came down for dinner he asked the waitress, “Please can I have two eggs, one tough and one rubbery, really tough bacon and burned,

fried bread?” The waitress said, “Sir, we really can’t serve that kind of

horrid food here.” The ghost replied,

“Well, you did yesterday!”

One Halloween a trick-or-treater came to my door dressed as ‘Rocky’ in boxing gloves and

satin shorts. Soon after I gave him some goodies, he returned for more. “Aren’t you the same ‘Rocky’ who left my doorstep a few min-

utes ago?” I asked.

“Yes,” he replied, “but now I’m the sequel. I’ll be back three more times tonight too.”

A guy named Billie Bob Joe goes to a cos-tume dress party with a

girl on his back. Harold, answering the door: What are you supposed to be? Billie Bob Joe: A turtle. Harold:

What do you mean? Billie Bob Joe: The girl on my back is Michelle.

* Orange and black are Halloween colors because orange is associated with the Fall harvest and black is associated with darkness and death.* Jack o’ Lanterns originated in Ireland where people placed candles in hollowed-out turnips to keep away spirits and ghosts on the Samhain holiday.* Pumpkins also come in white, blue and green. Great for unique monster carvings!* Halloween was brought to North America by immigrants from Europe who would celebrate the harvest around a bonfire, share ghost stories, sing, dance and tell fortunes.* Tootsie Rolls were the first wrapped penny candy in America.* The ancient Celts thought that spirits and ghosts roamed the countryside on Halloween night. They began wearing masks and costumes to avoid being recognized as human.* Halloween candy sales average about 2 billion dollars annually in the United States.* Chocolate candy bars top the list as the most popular candy for trick-or-treaters with Snickers #1.* Halloween is the 2nd most commercially successful holiday, with Christmas being the first.* Bobbing for apples is thought to have originated from the roman harvest festival that honors Pamona, the goddess of fruit trees.* Black cats were once believed to be witch’s familiars who protected their powers.

TEN SIGNS YOU ARE TOO OLD FOR HALLOWEEN

You get winded from knocking on the door

You have to have someone chew the candy for you

You ask for high fiber candy only.

When someone drops a candy bar in your bag, you lose your balance and fall over.

People say, “Great Keith Richards mask!” and you’re not wearing a mask.

When the door opens you yell, “Trick or...” and you can’t remember the rest.

By the end of the night you have a bag full of restraining orders.

You have to carefully choose a costume that won’t dislodge your hair piece.

You’re the only Power Ranger in the neighborhood with a walker.

You avoid going to houses where your ex-wives live

THINGS WE’VE LEARNED FROM HORROR FILMS....

* When it appears that you have killed the monster, NEVER check to see if it’s really dead. It isn’t.* If you find that your house is built upon or near a cemetery, was once a church that was used for black masses, had previous inhabitants who went mad or committed suicide or died in some horrible fashion, or had inhabitants who performed satanic practices in your house move immediately.* Never read a book of demon summoning aloud, even as a joke.* Do not search the basement, especially if the power has just gone out.* When you have the benefit of a group of people, NEVER pair off and go it alone.* As a general rule, don’t solve puzzles that open portals to Hell.* If you’re searching for something that caused a noise and find out that it’s just the cat, leave the room immediately if you value your life.* If you find a town that looks deserted, it’s probably for a reason. Take the hint and leave NOW!!* Don’t fool with recombinant DNA technology unless you’re sure you know what you are doing. Even then, don’t do it.* If you’re running from the monster, expect to trip or fall down at least twice, more if you are a female. Even though you may be faster than the monster, you can be sure that it WILL catch you.* If your friends suddenly begin to exhibit uncharacteristic behavior such as hissing, fascination for blood, glowing eyes, increasing hairiness, and so on, get away from them as fast as possible.* If your car runs out of gas at night, do not go to the nearby deserted-looking house to phone for help.

Two nuns are traveling through Europe in their car.

They get to Transylvania and are stopped at a traffic light.

Suddenly, a diminutive Dracula jumps onto the hood of the car and scratches at the windshield!

“Quick, quick!!” shouts the first nun “What shall I do?”

“Turn the windshield wipers on, that will get rid of the abomination.” shouts the second.

The first nun switches them on, knocking Dracula about, but he clings on and hisses even more loudly!

“What shall I do now?” shouts the first nun.

“Switch on the windshield washer. I filled it up with Holy Water at the Vatican!” says the second.

Dracula screams as the water burns his skin, but he clings on and hisses again at the nuns.

“Now what?” screams the first nun. “Show him your cross!” says the second.

So the nun rolls down the window and shouts:

“GET OFF MY DARN HOOD, YOU LITTLE CREEP!”

The next regular meeting of Council is on Tues. October 14 at 6:00 pm Regular meetings are held every 2nd and 4th

Monday of the month, unless otherwise

scheduled

Leaf Your Legacy Committee representatives addressed Council to promote the final blitz of the campaign, which will be held at the West Central Events Centre on November 6 from 12 pm to 8 pm. The five-year campaign will end on December 31, 2014. To date, available funds for Phase 2 of the multi-use facility project are $802,298.02.

Cemetery Committee representative Cliff Neufeld gave Council an update on im-provements made at the cemetery over the past year, in addition to making a request for an alternate maintenance truck.

Arlene Goosen of the Early Childhood Intervention Program addressed Council to discuss an upcoming program – Jump, Hop, Move - the organization is partnering with the Town of Kindersley to provide for children 3-5 years of age. Council offered its support of the initiative by approving the use of Town play equipment and endorsing an application to the Community Grant program.

Sonic Oilfield Service Ltd. representative Mike Bremner spoke on behalf of the company to request that Council consider amendments or changes to the Zoning Bylaw to allow for workers to live in trail-ers in the industrial area. Select members of Council will meet with him to discuss further, but in the interim, Council amended its previous resolution with regard to illegal temporary work camps to read that any structure not removed between November 1, 2014 and June 30, 2015 will be subject to a fine of $200 per week.

Council agreed to formally request that the Ministry of Highways give urgent consideration to implementing and funding the reconfiguration of the Highway 7 and Ditson Drive intersection to address safety concerns of both motorists and pedestrians.

A home-based business application for alcohol and drug testing was approved by Council on the condition that business operations shall conform to all applicable bylaws and that no laboratory or disposal of biomedical waste be conducted.

Council approved the proposed 11th Ave-nue East service extension, including a 250 mm (10”) water main and sanitary sewer main, and five service connections of 150 mm (6”) water and sanitary sewer lines, subject to the payment of development fees. The water main is to be looped with the existing water main at the north end of the future Thomson Drive.

A request for a 50mm (2”) water and 100mm (4”) sanitary sewer connection was approved by Council for the proposed four story, 108 room hotel at 501 & 503 14th Avenue East in order to meet National Building Code fire regulations and to supply flow to a hydrant or sprinkler system in the building. Service costs are to be paid by the purchaser.

Three vampires walk into a bar and sit down at a table. The wait-ress comes over and asks the first vampire what he would like.

The first vampire responds, “I vould like some blood.”

The waitress turns to the second vampire and asks what he would like. The vampire responds, “I vould like some blood.”

The waitress turns to the third vampire and asks what he would like. The vampire responds, “I vould like some plasma.”

The waitress looks up and says, “Let me see if I have this order correct. You want two bloods and a blood light?”

swallowed a coin and started choking.

Hans ran inside to get help, yelling “Mom! Dad! Come quick! There’s a franc in Stein!”
