Furthur Part 6 – Ottawa bluesfest
Two Samosas and 2 beers later, I greet Mr. QMS. Two tapers behind me are grooving about shows and equipment. Nice chit chat. One sounds German and the other is from California. Both seem pretty nice. A non head Halifax next to me was awkward. He was more cleancut than Ward Cleaver. There were two [...]
Furthur part 5
I’m in. I found a sweet spot next to the walkway where the fence bends so according to the couple next to me we would be protected from the beaten path. They watch my chair while I grab a couple of pints. The opening act is on. Sounds like some kick ads Mellon and Black [...]
Further parts 4 and more-Blues fest in Ottawa, Canada- July 7th 2010
I’m going down the road feeling bad. I exit at Bronson to find somewhere to fill my 2.5 liters worth of empty plastic water bottles. My one vice representative of my conservative values I staunchly hold on to. (Truth be told I was going to bring a giant refillable but the Blues fest said there was no unsealed water bottles. I didn’t want to lose my trusty canteen at the door if even empty it constituted unsealed.
I park at the Museum and immediately lock myself in an emergency stairwell because of stupidity. But realistically the exit door was also locked but buzzed. After some paranoid banging a couple of nice ladies let me out. Breathe Steve breathe.
On site I see the Mill St brewery tents all over staffed by college kids. Cheap labor but it adds a c-note and a line to a resume.
So bottom line is that I am here.
To be continued…

The City of Ottawa also just approved a $1.2 M expenditure on two watermobiles to promote more usage of Ottawa drinking water. Logic says residents are paying taxes to move water from toilets to drinking glasses. Yummy! How OfficiallyScrewed [...]
On Skilled Immigration
Today on Lowell Green’s morning show the topic of immigration was up. Some callers supported skilled immigration in areas we need as having a priority. I like this concept in theory and I would even propose having a list of authorized audited institutions for confirmation (if we don’t already). And a group of skilled people [...]
