Connecting With The Spiritual World
I have written many blog entries on the afterlife.

I believe the internet gives mankind a high tech tool by which signals from spirits can be received by human beings.

Connecting with spirits through a medium and paranormal activity is limited and unreliable. It may make great reality TV programning like "Most Haunted" and "Ghostly Encounters", but neurotic and lost souls make poor communication partners.

It probably takes creative computer experts on the other side to make links and webpages that can be seen by humans.

The experiences of many lifetimes would enhance the survival prospects of mankind.

An invisible army might finish off terrorism for good.

This is a dream that I continue to believe in and promote.

We will all live better lives when barriers between lifeforms are broken down. This is the multiculturalism of tomorrow.

Movie Review 105: Carolina
Mood:  a-ok
I like reviewing something that appears to be missed by both the critics and the audience.

Carolina is a deceptively simple, but complex movie. The young girl, Julia Stiles, has an inferior complex that her grandmother(Shirley Maclaine)tries to solve.

The story revolves around believing in yourself despite everything that happens to you. The ending involving a winning lottery ticket is moving, surprising and focuses on true human values.

Unfortunately, the critics seemed to focus on the pecularities of the characters rather than the story line with it strange twists. People are deeper than they look and this film demonstrates this well.Three stars.

Italy Wins Bragging Rights
Mood:  celebratory
For the next four years. In Toronto and elsewhere, there were massive celebrations of Italy's World Cup Victory. That's because Toronto has the largest Italian population outside of Italy.

As a kid, I loved playing soccer, but watching it bores me to tears. Despite the skill in playing this sport, it's hard to score goals in marathon defensive struggles.(I love seeing soccer hightlights because I don't have to sit through 90 minutes plus of mind numbing ball kicking.)

Personally, I'm a big hockey fan although the Toronto Maple Leafs haven't won a Stanley Cup in 40 years.

Top Blog Of The Week
Mood:  a-ok
This would have to go to Charles Deemer(The original screenwriting guru). He writes about interesting every day stuff and concentrates on superior movies and writing.

He finds delight in the simple things of life like an outing or a favourite sports team.

He also has great links to the film community and other screenwriting websites.

In my favourite blog catagory, his is the only one listed at this time. Check it out:

I Look Forward To The Day
When I'm retired from the Post Office and its labour/management wars of long duration.

Of course, as a responsible postie, I want to leave the management/labour relationship in better condition than I found it. This is a challenging issue which I addressed in a letter to a senior CPC(Canadian Postal Corporation) executive, yesterday.

Here's the letter:

"After listening to your speech on the "Modern Post" DVD, I realized that much of the distrust against CPC management seemed to build up at the beginning of contract negotiations.

The corporation's initial positions on many issues were often rollbacks which seemed unjustified to the union and the membership.

For months, there would be little change in negotiations as each side played "hardball" with each other.

Former CUPW president, Jean Claude Parrot made the cynical observation that management only negotiated seriously when the union was in a strike position.

Eventually, the rollbacks would go and a contract would be hammered out one way or another.

It should be noted that when both union and management understood each other's priorities in the last round of negotiations an agreement was reached fairly quickly.

Please note, however, that months of no progress and confrontational tactics leave a bitter taste in our mouths.

Surely, there must be a way in which the priorities of one side can be communicated quickly to the other.

Serious negotiating should start immediately rather than after the conciliator's report.

Time spent on name calling and posturing can undermine employee morale and productivity. Customers can also be lost during protracted disputes.

Why not start from positive negotiating positions and build on that?

Also, explain carefully all cost cutting measures to union leadership and CUPW members."

I Don't Need To Get A Life. I Already Have One
I'm a fan of paranormal TV shows like "Most Haunted", "Resue Mediums" and "Ghostly Encounters", etc. In my opinion, there are memory energy particles that are left by the departed. It's disputable whether the spirit is actually there, but some of his/her experiences have been left behind.

Human lose a great deal at death, their possessions, their body, their family and friends. The only thing, they carry with them are their memories and unless these are downloaded into a supercomputer, they could be gone as well.

How can you learn anything from an earthly life unless you can remember it?

Fortunately, there are higher beings who are willing to help lost souls recover their memories. The Brotherhood of Christ uses advanced technology for such a purpose.

We don't have to be condemned to endless reincarnations where amnensia and darkness rule.

Movie Review 104: Eight Below
Mood:  a-ok
The title refers to eight huskies in Antarctica, not the temperature.

This truly is an inspirational film about sled dogs who act better towards each other than most humans do to each other.

I'm not going to give anything about the story away except that it moved me to tears several times.

It's suitable for audiences of any age or sex. You don't have to be a dog lover to enjoy this different kind of adventure. Three stars. The humans didn't act as well as the canines.

Taking The Good With The Bad
The Good:
1. My wife's new manager(Donna of Cintas)gave her a pot of lovely flowers. Irene has only been working at Cintas for a week, but this was a nice gesture.
2. From June/29/06 to July/3/06, I will have worked three out of four days as overtime. It's great having the holidays off, but unfortunately, my shoulder is still behind the financial eight ball.
3. Saw a good movie about sled dogs in the Antarctic called "Eight Below". This will be reviewed later.
The Bad:
1. My brother-in-law(Joe Noseworthy)and I lost against our wives(Irene and Laurie)in both Euchre and Cribbage. This hasn't happened in years.
2. England lost in the World Cup to Portugal.

I'm A Big Fan Of Superman
Mood:  special
In the 1950s and 1960s, I read "Superman Comics" faithfully. The stories were well written and the comics were well drawn. I liked the lighter stuff in the series like the elf from the fifth dimension, Myzplytyk and the imperfect copy of Superman, Bizarro. Some of the best stories that I remember were "Supermenace" with a character that was an evil duplicate of Superman, who was raised by a criminal. Superman's attempt to save Krypton by going back in time.(He failed because he can't change history.)The Brainiac story and the shrunken Krypton city of Kandor.

As a kid, the mythology of superheroes applied to me, because deep down inside I was a superbeing too.
From 5 to 13, comics were the gateways to my subconscious mind. It opened up other worlds and other experiences to me. What some might call imagination. Others might call pass life memory.
Six of one and a half dozen of the other.
