Planned Parenthood says that they will be “ireparably harmed” if certain information gets out. I wonder what they are trying to hide?

Ok, all three of you who still read this blog. Flu shot – Yes? No? Discuss.
A pre teen girl from Cornwall with no previous illness died of swine flu yesterday. I think this just tipped me from my family not getting the shot to getting it, but I am still anxious about it. I read that the study that Health Canada used to approve the shot only had 130 people in it. That is a very small study.
Think music doesn’t add much to a movie? Think again:

My first successful attempt at needle felting. I’m very pleased with it:

Since when is giving blood a human right? This man deliberately lied about his sexual activity in order to give blood – 18 times! Here is a quote from the National Post:
According to court discoveries, Mr. Freeman said he donated blood in 2002 after not donating blood for some time as a “political statement.”
I see. So he stopped giving blood as a political statement, then since that wasn’t getting enough attention, he decided to lie about his risk factors, and start giving blood again. Why? Here’s another quote:
“I felt the benefit of giving blood would outweigh the political position of Blood Services.”
Giving blood is not a right, Mr. Freeman. How dare you put waving the rainbow flag over and above my right to a safe blood supply. I think the National Post editorial has got it right:
Mr. Freeman’s vanity litigation must not be allowed to prevail. Blood donation is not a human right akin to voting, as Mr. Freeman seems to presume. It is an act of civic altruism that permits the lives of sick and injured Canadians to be saved. Yet Mr. Freeman seeks to give blood in a situation where medical professionals have gauged that the medical risk to public health exceeds the medical benefit. Apparently, he believes societal validation of his sexual orientation is more important than public health — that waving the rainbow flag is more important than protecting the blood supply. What a repellent commentary on the excesses of identity politics.
A dear friend refinished and painted my aged Louet S-10 spinning wheel. Didn’t she do a wonderful job?


I’ve shed a few tears this morning. Rest in Peace, Mary.
