It is that time of year when we take some time to count our blessings as we end another year, to look back and say, regardless of our plight ,just how lucky we really are.
With that in mind, here are some of my Christmas wishes.
That Mayor Colin Kinsley will earn enough bonus travel points during this term that he never needs to buy another airline ticket in his life .
That Initiatives Prince George's Gerry Offet has a multi billion dollar developer (who isn’t in the call center business) that would like to invest half his fortune in this community.
That a recount will be held and Dan Rogers will be tied with Kinsley for the Mayor's chair, only this time Kevin Brown will be Rogers campaign manager.
That "Gypsy" will be appointed to the Senate and her first business will be to clean up Conrad Black’s papers .
That all of the WHL teams in the west are kidnapped by a Mexican chihuahua ranch (other than the Cougars) and Rick Brodsky finally hoists a banner into the rafters at CN Centre.
That city hall turns down a Hooters restaurant because …. there are not enough skilled Hooters ?.... and they opt instead to have ... you guessed it... another Hockey Enforcers on Ice.
That my friend and colleague Hartley Miller finally sells 100 of his new book and gives the remaining ones to friends, just for laughs.
That everyone will finally give the Health Care Rally a rest before it receives its 10 year pin.
That Pat Bell , Shirley Bond and Jim Rustad reluctantly take a 40% raise at the insistance of the BC public and when they receive it (with the spirit of giving in their hearts) they donate their entire salaries for the year to the Teachers Union.
That Telus finally moves out of the age of the crank phone and teaches their operators in the Phillipines that Kamloops and Kelowna are spelled with a K not a C , and you really should have a phone that people can reach you at if your going to stay in the business.
To Chadermando a special Xmas wish that we don’t have to cut his commnents, well at least until after the New Year .
To Don Mackenzie , a brand new hunting rifle and a draw to shoot a Grizzly bear in Bella Colla.
To Jethro, please come home, we miss you.
To Owl and to Camoose, Ammonra, Diplomat, Death to Socialism, Chester, Fed Up, Palopu, Tudenom, Ugly Duck and all of you others, the best of the holiday season .
Finally, for all who hope I get a big lump of coal for Christmas, may your wish be granted.
I'm Meisner, and that is one man's opinion.
