Skid's Letters: August 2011
http://skidsletters.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Mt nickname is Skid and I live in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. I am a libertarian deist, which makes me rather rare in Canadian circles. It is said that, when an American reaches for a gun, a Canadian writes a letter. These are a few I've been moved to pen over the last few years. Monday, August 29, 2011.

Friday, September 30, 2011. Even before we purchased our new house, I've envisioned having a fully insulated and finished garage, if only to make it a little warmer for storing motorcycles. After getting a quote from our builder, it became apparent that I'd have to do it myself as the builder's quote was $6,500. 11/30/2010 - Moving day: unfinished garage. 3/20/2011 - Fully insulated and mostly drywalled. 9/23/2011 - Anybody want to guess what is being painted here? Wednesday, September 28, 2011. In Elora...

Saturday, January 8, 2011. It was once again time for the annual Motorcycle Supershow at the International Centre in Mississauga. Jim and Sandy were once again staying with us in Woodstock and we left late in the morning. We didn't have any plans to see anything specific aside from the usual wandering. Heather on an Indian.

Saturday, April 9, 2011. First Ride of 2011. Our first ride of the 2011 season was to Ed Hendrick’s internment. Ed was a member of Waterloo Wings, the group that was responsible for organizing Cyclefest during Labour Day weekends. He passed away on January 27th because of a heart attack. The meeting place was at a Giant Tiger parking lot in Stratford where we arrived after 10am. Even though it was a clear day, the morning was still cold but the turnout was very good. At the Schmidtsville Restaurant.

Skid's Random Thoughts: October 2010
http://skidsrandomthoughts.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
The random political, religious and other thoughts of a Canadian libertarian deist in Sudbury, Ontario. Tuesday, October 19, 2010. My thoughts on money and banks. This is not a cut and paste but a summation of my own thoughts on the matter of paper currency and related items. Just a ramble, if you will, with my limited training in economics and thoughts on the economy of today. But what is the true nature of this cash? Fixed commodities such as gold are problematic in today's society. Its availabilit...
