FREDERICTON SOUP KITCHEN NEEDS FORKS AND SPOONS!!!!!

My God? It’s terrible out there.

Tomorrow it’s suppose to be the Indianapolis 500 and usually it’s very hot in New Brunswick during the race but I don’t believe this will be the case in this year.
This cold cloudy weather must match today’s voters attitude towards the Lord Government.
The weather is such a downer that a person feels like jumping from the bridge.

It feels like fall out there.

OK…I volunteered at the Fredericton Soup Kitchen today and it sure was funny.

I decided to clean the dishes and trays and I would pass it to the guy next to me.
Charles 04_11_05 021
He would spray the dishes before pushing them in the dishwasher. Team work at it’s best!

My God? I take my hat off to the people who volunteered before the dishwasher came along. Can you imagine washing all those dishes by hands???

GEORGE PIERS, MIKE< COOK > AND ADHDMAN!!

Anyway, this time around I ran into a little problem.

The guy beside me was a guy name Mike. He’s a tall individual 6,2 and weights close to 280 pounds.

So what’s the problem you asked?

Mike is blind!!!!

THIS IS MIKE
MIKE
Can you imagine a blind man working beside a person with ADHD????

All you could hear was sorry and excuse me?
Charles 04_11_05 003

Mike is a religious person and on a few occasions he lost his temper with me or the machine. As for me? I am the hyper type and he makes certain everything is in place in a slow way. So you can just imagine the situation?....lol

Yes…ADHD and blindness don’t go hand in hand!!!..lol…all in fun!

Anyway? I found out something very interesting at the Soup Kitchen today.

I noticed many plastic spoons on the trays. I threw some out but I asked the reason we had so many plastic spoons?

Usually the volunteers always serve the poor with silverware but they’re almost all gone!

The reason? The Junkies steals the spoons to do their drug habit! The do their Crack Cocaine and Dilaudid with the spoons.

Certain part of the year, forks would be stolen for their marijuana use.

So if the Fredericton Police Department wishes to know what kind of drugs are in this City?

Just give Georges Piers a call because he can tell by which silverware is missing!

Georges Piers did tell me that only 15% of the people who goes at the Soup Kitchen do have a drug problem.

Therefore ruining it for the other 85%! It doesn’t seem to be fair.

Do you have any silverware such as Spoons and forks?

Please drop them over at the Fredericton Soup Kitchen.

They sure need some.

Ok here’s the statistics from the Soup Kitchen for the month of April!

Noon- 167 meals a day.

Supper-117 meals a day.

Lunches are given out to the poor. 183 lunches were given to the needy.

The Soup Kitchen also gave a helping hand to 67 families and individuals with Food boxes.

I would love to know the stats in the rest of the Province?
THIS IS JEROME. A PERSON WHO ALWAYS VOLENTEERS AT THE KITCHEN.

This evening, I was invited for a coffee with a dear good friend of mine.

Once outside, we began a little chat then suddenly I noticed this guy with a grey Leather jacket given me a very stern look.

I will say that he was in his late 50s staring at me with a dirty look and shouted - Charles Leblanc??? You don’t know me but I know you Charles LeBlanc!!!!

I quickly ran behind my female friend and said - When they come out with a leather Jacket looking like a hitman? I must run for cover!

I’m certain that the female believe that I was a coward…lol…

He told me that he listens to me all the time on Talk of the Town in Saint John.

He quickly added that all the regular callers should get a life!!!

He continued by defending the Irvings!!!If it wasn’t the Irvings? This province would be dead he shouted!!!

I reminded the guy if the Irvings wasn’t here? Someone else would be in their place.

His wife came out and he continued to his vehicle while still debating with me.

I shouted- Did you dedicate your life and soul to the evil Irving Empire?? < In a Hitler salute >
irving
He replied - You must do that with all big companies and quickly jump in his vehicle and left the area.

Before he sat in his car, I shouted - When you hear my voice? Do you put the volume down or do you listen?

He shouted- I listen!!!!

LOL..I get this all the time. I just can’t disguise my voice. It’s impossible. You can hear my voice at?????

Then you’ll know what I’m talking about!...lol…

Ok….It’s almost Midnight and I’m tired. So please excuse the style and grammar of this blog because I just write the darn thing and send it along the information Highway. Don’t be afraid to voice your views because many people do read it!!!

Bye bye

Hi Charles: I don't think that I get so out of shape I don't yell and scream I do how ever seem, or I should say that when you and I are on the dishwasher, we seem to go faster than the dish washer and believe it or not, that thing only has a cycle of about a minute and a half. Well catch you Sunday at about anytime after 15:00/300pm I also think that more needs to be done to the drug adicts and acoholics fighting and arguing when they are either too stoned or too shit-faced to conduct themselves in a responsible way. There needs to be an emphesis on getting these people out of the area when they are like that. so they are not a Danger to other persons who have to come to the Kitchen for their meals.

Cheers for now.

Debates aren't very constructive when they have to be yelled across a parking lot-of course political debates here are often like that partly because people know their opinion doesn't matter anyway. Unlike the states or switzerland the people have no political power over ANY decisions. We don't have 'citizens initiatives' like those two places, and the province has only ever held one referendum which was run very badly.

Thanks to the Irving media New Brunswickers are pretty much retarded when it comes to politics unless they get their news from other sources. Your 'friend' is quite right that 'you must not support ANY big company'. That's exactly right. Globalization, or corporatization (whichever you want to call it) is being fought in every country of the world and every city and province of those countries. Here in New Brunswick it simply has a single face-Irving. Or you could call it Irving-Mccain.

Just because somebody criticizes a company doesn't mean it never does anything good-nobody has said 'let's throw out the Irvings', although you can just go to Manitoba and notice that there is no Irving there (yet) and they're standard of living is higher than New Brunswicks.

The original idea of creating businesses here so that decision making power and profits 'stay here' is a very good one. Centralizing it so that all those profits and decision making powers go to one family is not (in effect you simply create a new level of 'government'). Out west the wheat board regulates prices, this is all that has kept most farmers in business, here in NB there are no such things for any industries and you can see where it has led-lowest standard of living in the country. There are now only 9000 farmers left in the province when even ten years ago there was 26000. Ok, I forgot my point, see ya...

You talk about poor and then you mention Bernard Lord. He does not need any soup kitchen. He went on a joy ride again. He went to Toronto on the Muchmusic show. Why should taxpayers foot the bill? Then he went to New York to wine and dine and then off to Washington D.C. for more wining and dinning on taxpayers expense and promoting himself. How many other Premiers waste so much taxpayers’ money on their travels. NBers are the only patsies. What did taxpayers got in return, a big fat bill? At least Irving pay from their own pocket for their trips.

Do you think taxpayers should pay for his expensive travels and vacations? And what he has for poor and children, VLTs and Ritalin. VLTs keep the money coming for his travels and other luxuries and Ritalin keeps kids under control. Some may commit suicide and die in the process but that is not of much concern to Bernie.

Irving we cannot fire. But this guy must go. What are your thoughts Charles??

You wish me to comment on your views about Bernard Lord vacations? Sure! Didn't Richard Hatfield did the same actions before Frank McKenna won the election 58-0? Need I to say more?

So in another words Bernard Lord pikcked up the old itinerary of Richard Hatfield in 1999 and have been following it since.

Richard Hatfield at least did few good things but what Bernard Lord has done other than screwing the province and squandering our tax dollars.
