Take this as you will...

A reputable psychic I've worked with in the past through our paranormal efforts has passed on a little info to me about the bus...

Actually, she's gonna kill me if she sees the image I've used above...

Now, I need to make a couple of statements here before going ahead...

I am not a believer in "professional psychics"... those who jam-up a sign and charge for readings... the BEST psychics I've ever encountered... the ones that blew my tiny little sceptical socks right off my enormous and nasty looking tootsies... are NOT "pros". They have day jobs and admit either stuff comes to them... or it doesn't... and they CANNOT turn things on and off regardless of the coin that crosses their palms so they don't "advertise" their abilities... and none of the BEST one's I've come across charge for their efforts.

Hey, let's face it... Uri Geller proved himself to me to be a complete clown in many ways.

That said, I have had those aforementioned tiny socks blown off... and with extreme prejudice at that!

So, now that I've covered that... one of the most impressive psychics sent me an e-mail to me that was "bad news/good news" in terms of things busly...

According to them, 2007 will NOT be the year of the bus... we WILL not succeed this year.

...but...

According to them, they did "see" Sue and myself working on the bus in the springtime... they said they had a "vivid image" of Sue working on the interior while I was working on the engine in either April, May, and June... but not "late June" as Sue and I were both wearing coats or jackets.

Apparently, leaves were green and we were both working ourselves hard at our task...

So, in her... vision(?)... we shouldn't expect anything THIS year... but next.

Oh, and she said that "many" would be "heralding" the dream coming true and that more than a few people would be celebrating and even taking a page from us to try and make their own dream come true.

She did not, however, mention whether the dastardly Ultramantis Black, Hydra, and Crossbones would be successful in commandeering the bus for their nefarious (although somewhat laudable) plans!

Anyway... I guess I'll extend our OTHER friends "vision" thing... at least, as far as making it public... what ARE those "three letters" that may have a lot to do with us getting the bus??? I'll give it until May of 2008 before telling you what they were... unless, of course, the letters and/or the bus pop into our hands before May of next year...

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...)
