When You Smell Like Fish

Filed under: Uncategorized, Business/Career, This Town - Mama BoK @ 10:56 pm

I had said many a times.. this is a fishing town right..?? but i also had forgotten to mention that we have many fish plants in this town.. and half the population of this town.. works in the fish plant. It is hard work. .but pays very well.. plus you get to claim unemployment.. because it is a seasonal job.

But when you are just done work.. in the fish plant.. please go home.. and donch come out till you are showered like 3 times.. because coming into our store.. and staying for 20mins.. just stinks up the whole store for me. .and all my Body Shop’s home fragrance.. will go wasted. So folks if you smell like fish.. please donch come into our store.. unless it is a case of life and death.

Preparing For A Big Storm

Filed under: Weather, This Town - Mama BoK @ 7:16 pm

It’s the hurricane season here in Canada.. and we may be hit by it. We are just a week away from the peak season of this climate change. Newfoundland saw a post tropical storm last week, lots of rain and flooding there.

We were hit hardest in 2003, when Hurricane Juan smashed through NS, we ere very lucky .. because it missed us in Yarmouth, but Halifax was hit really hard. Seven people dead and more than $100 million in damages.

So if you donch see me online for a few days.. or a week.. donch panic.. it prolly means our town is hit by the storm.

Neglecting Yer Kids

Filed under: Uncategorized, Blog News - Mama BoK @ 5:28 pm

Sometimes, when i read on another blogger’s blog about how mad they get.. when they cannot do as much opps .. or that they get all upset.. and cranky.. when their internet is down.. and cannot complete their assignments.. it makes me really sad. Why..?? because shouldn’t our kids be more important above everything else..?? It makes me reflect on my actions.. and check if I am too neglecting my kid..just because i wanna pick up abit of money here and there.

We claimed to spend quality time with our kids.. but are we really kidding ourselves..? I donch have a maid at home.. who could help me .. to accompany my brat.. everyday.. and 24hrs a day nor help me to do my housework. I have a babysitter who comes in 3 times a week.. during the summer because she is on school holiday.. but once school starts, Keegan goes back to her 2 days a week .. for babysitting instead of 3. My MIL comes only when line-dancing starts and babysits for me.. while waiting for her Bingo session to start at 7pm.

So how do one balance it all..?? what is fair to your kids.. and your family and home.. and if you are working.. is it right.. ?? to do paid posting.. during office hours..?? when you are being paid.. to work for someone else..??

Well.. Mrs Untrustworthy is gonna get a visit tonite.. and will be losing her gamecube system.. and whatever not .. that we can get ..! And her bounced cheque is gonna go up my wall of shame..! muahahahah!!

Rostam Comic Book

Filed under: Uncategorized - Mama BoK @ 4:31 pm

Even as an adult now, we all still have the little child in us and comic books are never too young for all of us. Tell me who haven’t had their favorite comic books.. that they stash away to share with their friends when they were in high school or even as young as grade school.

Well, if you are into comic books, make sure you pick up a copy of Rostam Comic Book, it is meant for all ages and an adaptation of tales from Shahnameh into the American Comic book format. It is all about Persian Mythological Heroes brought to life in a graphic novel. The comic is a combined effort by childhood friends, Bruce, Jamie and Cameron and the brainchild came after the project on anti-smoking targettng Asian American teenage who smokes, it became so successful that more than a million issues were printed and distributed. And because of that project, they were inspired to express the action adventure stories they had grown up with and turn it into an art form.

Rostam is the main warrior hero in this comic book, keeping in mind with most comic book tradition, blending rich folklore and tradition into this comic, the first adaptation of Shahnameh was launched. A trilogy was put together after many years of hardwork in research, translation and adaptation. A deeper message and/or fable of wisdom and advice overlays the main story was achieved. A definitely “must owned” comic for in July, Rostam comic book was added to the Asian Art Museum store in San Francisco, California. I’ll have to say it’s a cool comic book to be on display there till mid - September.

Cradle Robbing Doesn’t Work For All

Filed under: Uncategorized, Amusing/Musing, This Town - Mama BoK @ 3:12 pm

I’ve said to all .. about all relationships are ..over in this small town of ours. Ppl get together.. stay together.. and a few months down the road.. they kick their b/fs out.. and then go with another man.

Moreso, this town.. loves the way younger man.. and older woman relationship. In our line of business… we get to know the ppl .. and today itself.. we heard that a customer of ours.. isn’t together anymore. She has 3 other kids.. with someone else.. and 1 with him.. he is but a kid.. when they got together.. and she looks like his mother. I was wondering.. how long .. this relationship was gonna last. And it did last .. longer than i had expected.

But nope.. cradle robbing donch work for everyone. I’m a cradle robber too.. muahahahha!! PB is way younger than I .. about 8 yrs, but seriously i donch look like his mother or his sister.. and thank God.. for that..! coz’ i wouldn’t know how to face ppl if i were like my customer.. who looked every bit like his mother.. and a way older sister. My advice.. to ppl who wants to cradle rob.. make sure.. the spouse looks way older than you .. and must be bigger size ya..! this one.. 3 times his size.. !! “malu-ration..!!”

Save by Building With Metal

Filed under: Uncategorized - Mama BoK @ 3:11 pm

Buildings back home especially warehouses are mostly Steel Buildings, over here buildings made with steel are not uncommon, just like the extension of our house for a garage, it is build from steel because it is cost effective, durable but sturdy. Some folks feel that building with steel gives one such a cold feeling but it’s not true at all, because one should look at the overall cost and how long and how much warranty one gets from building a steel building.

Using only top commercial grade U.S. Steel, a 25 year warranty protection and over 30 yrs of experience, you can rest assure that Olympia Steel Building knows exactly what they are doing. They use only 100% American Steel and they specializes in pre-engineered steel buildings and metal building system. Sold only directly to customer, you not only save time and money, you are getting the best price ever for any project you may be embarking on.

Main reason why we choose a steel building because it is of a highest quality and it last a lifetime. The roof being the most important part of a building needs to be structurely sound, for you don’t want it to collapse on you. A dry building is ensured when you have a steel roof and thus all your stuff stored is very safe. Leaks and maintenance to your building is usually caused by roof rust but with a steel building, you know it will not. And if you didn’t know, Olympia’s Steel Buildings are made to withstand the worst weather conditions, even hurricanes, I heard. You don’t want your garage or your barn to be blown away do you..? Choose something you can rely on for years and years and get your money worth out of it.

Handmade Jewelry

Filed under: Uncategorized - Mama BoK @ 2:28 am

I do not like to buy jewelry that every Mary, Jane and Ann has. When I buy pieces of jewelry, I prefer Handmade Jewelry, and simply because I don’t want to be wearing what my girlfriend, co-workers or my brother’s girlfriend might be wearing at the same time. It can be quite embarrassing to find that you all bought the same piece of jewelry especially if you want to be unique in a cocktail or an dinner party.

Handmade jewelries are made from the heart, and are meant to be appreciated by people who knows how to appreciate them.. and give them value. The artist takes great pride in making those jewelries and alot of effort is put into each and individual pieces, it is truly an art and a masterpiece for each one produced.

Handmade jewelery are memorable gifts you can gift to anyone, because they are original, unique and can reflect your taste and the amount of effort put into choosing it. Anyone receiving a handmade jewelery will definitely appreciate it, I certainly would.
