2 more days of excessive heat ! i hate this shit. it's sept! summer is over. thank goodness cooler temps are coming.

 

and the drug addicted son who sold the old man's gun (i still don't believe all of that story) got nothing in the will. haha

 

skinny-how was the film festival ? Entertainment Weekly posted a article about it this week and the movies coming out. they look solid.

 

Same old every year, if you aren't a hollywood elite, you don't get into the after parties. Outrageous prices for the premieres, I saw lady gaga for 2 seconds.
I really didn't stick around for too long, food trucks and outdoor patios.

 

oh ok. i barely recognized her for the trailer A STAR IS BORN. She looks a lot different without makeup on.

 

in the US, today is the 17th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. A week after the attacks, I felt compelled to write a composition about what happened. My brother in law still says it's the greatest thing I ever written and I've written other compositions, poems, and 7 full length screenplays ! It could've been better, but it was from the heart.

 

What do I know, I just saw a crowd and a security guy told me she was coming by soon.

 

I was driving in the northeast part of the city the other day. I couldn't believe I saw a farm, in the city. I went to google it, it's the last and only working farm left in toronto.
It's a mennonite family that came from Pennsylvania in 1804. They have no intention of giving it up.

 

Man, they had some tiff party last night, the music was blaring, I couldn't sleep. I was gonna go there and bitch slap Michael Moore.

 

i wish you did ! i hate that cocksucker !

 

my sister lives in Lancaster County around many profitable massive working farms. million dollar farms. many are Mennonites. they never leave. Land & farms handed down generation to generation. I like going up there to visit. beautiful countryside. my sister has a small front lawn that overlooks her neighbors 400 acre farm. in the summer, the crops are grown in and all you see are hills and hills of crops.awesome to sit on her porch and smoke a stogie and chat with them. in the winter, it's hills of open land. he owns so much, his house is on the farm side of it. you can't see it in the summertime bc his crops block the view. once they are gone, you can see it. it's far away.

 

I thought every plot of land in the city was developed. My dad was even surprised, and he's been living here 60 years.
This family even has a road named after them, Reesor.

 

nice to see they stand their ground and never uprooted. some of my brother in law's grand father's and great grand father's farms still exist!! one is falling down, but the house his grandfather was born is is still half-standing. amazing.

 

Their name is on a map of 1860, long history. I went to school with a Mckay girl whose families name was on an 1860 plot of land from a map. Her great-grandfather lost 80% of his deed in a card game sometime in the early 1900s. If they still held the original land, it would've been worth well over $100M. An old friend ended up marrying her and they did inherit a bit from the land sale. They had to split it between 18 family members.

 

damn ! a card game ? that's rough. you better be sure to win if that was the bet! damn man. i wonder what the 18 shares were worth of the sold piece of land remaining ??

 

These stories weren't uncommon back then. Picture yourself being a canadian farmer back in those days. It's January, (no tv, radio, car). You're just sitting there waiting for seeding season in late May. There's no going down south, bored to death. It's a choice between checkers or chess, or you could join in on a card game.

It's not one big bet, just accumulated losses over time and you're given a chance to win it back but you dig yourself in a deeper hole.

They didn't mention what their share was, but I think the govt bought it to build a highway through. This is less money than a private developer would give you, and it was 25 years ago.

 

I have no idea who that is in the corner.
