"But they're to it and at it at it and to it-
Ya gotta tune your attitude in!
If ya don't get at it when ya get to it -
Ya won't get to it to get at it again!" - Charles Thomas Connors

One more day... I always see Saturday as the true "ending" of a week... and so far, this week has seen me "dissed" by Uri Geller, picking a bone with Deepak Chopra (for mistaking "non-believers" with "sceptics"... a common mistake...), and last night, we were threatened by another person of some "fame"! (I'd tell you more, but believe it or not, there's a lawyer involved!!! I'm really HOPING it will be ironed out without too much silliness. We made no mistakes, someone else MIGHT have and we're leaving it to those two parties to come to an agreement... and leave us the heck out of it!)
Makes me wonder what today will bring...? {{shiver}}
On a positive note is the weird(?) statement by another "well known" psychic (at least in some circles) that said we were (QUOTE) "VERY CLOSE" to seeing the dream come true and it circled around THREE LETTERS that I had noticed were "following me"...
What's odd about this is that the psychic did NOT specify which letters... and I, as a genuinely sceptical fellow (I DOUBT, but do not DENY without evidence and I am open to examining things!) have to admit, BEFORE hearing this, I had noticed THREE LETTERS showing up a little more than usual in a row... now, in the interest of an experiment (as I'm really always on,) I have told these letters to Sue... and I'm going to share them with the staff of my organisation...
Is this psychic right???
To be honest, right now, I'm feeling VERY optimistic!
You see, when someone tells me I SHOULDN'T do something that I believe I should try to do (like Mr. Geller did,) or someone threatens to stop me or prevent me from trying something (like the person last night,) it only STRENGTHENS my resolve...
That, and despite what some might see as "negatives" online are being almost counter-balanced with really good things offline (in that weird thing called "real life"... no, I don't know where you can download one!)
...and in fact, I do believe that we WILL be succesfull in our quest for the bus sooner rather than later... for some reason, I'm REALLY feeling it right now...
We'll see...
Gee, perhaps I should have saved this news until tomorrow during my usual "How Are Things Going" week roundup... but I just wanted to share it now...
Of Note: Tomorrow's date is 07/07/07... I love cool dates!

Allow me to start with we do not own nor are we selling a bus. Just had to get that out...
This blog was started in April of 2006... during a very bad time for me and my family when money was very tight and life was very hard.
We maintained a happier outlook on life by fantasizing... talking about what we would do when times were better... and as Sue and myself are Anglophiles, England factored greatly into our "plans".
During these bad times, while looking at news items which, at the time included items about London removing their venerable old Routemasters, I came across one photo of an old green bus... and somehow, my whole family adopted it. It became very much "our bus". (Details about "our bus" are available by clicking here.)
Like most of you, I'd heard about the fellow who'd made a million dollars selling tiny ads online... and the fellow who did trades and turned a paper clip into a house... so I thought, since we couldn't make our bus actually into "our bus" (well beyond our means,) I'd try an "online" appeal... to make the focused item of our hopes into a tangible thing in our lives...
More specifically, in a burst of adult/juvenile optimism, I had hoped to show the youngest member of the family, who at the time was still very youthful and impressionable, that dreams really could become reality if you hope and, more importantly, try.
Well, I'm pretty sure you figured it out... we had limited succes in this venture... and the youngest has now reached an age where she is more traditionally "teenaged" cynical than much else about the world, which isn't a dreadful thing... but there's a "good news" portion to this... our personal situation with money is better, life has improved, and some people really liked my rambling here... so, I decided to keep things going... Yes, I will "give up" on asking for help on a bus... and have to give up on even trying as hard to get the bus through online means... and yes, be far more realistic... but I don't mind this "turn" of things as I actually enjoy venting, trying my hand at humour, and generally keeping on online presence outside my usual things.
Thanks to those who were/are "Busly Dream" enthusiasts... I suppose that our buses for now will be single-deck with the letters "TTC" emblazoned on them... but this blog will live as does our dream! (It's just a little quieter on that latter bit...)
