Me and, me and me and Max
(Hugga mugga, hugga mug-ah)

In 1997-ish there was a promotion where you could send away for Max mugs. I owned two. They are long gone and my taste in coffee has changed too, but coffee is still my number one morning priority. Although I don't drink Maxwell House coffee anymore, that jingle in the link is the one I drink to.
According to my internet search, the S.S. Beaver was a steamboat owned by the Hudson's Bay Company and used to service trading posts. This mug, however, made me smirk when I saw it. Aren't there like, marketing people employed by such companies who, say, nix certain designs because immature people like me will only see it in terms of the slang? It's like all those Canadians who go down under wearing their Roots sweatshirts and having the Aussies snigger behind their back.
Beaver.
HBC should really hire some young punk who's hip to these things...

Self-assigned creative shoot - part of a larger art piece that is forthcoming (not for a while). Thanks Nick! Strobist: one flash into umbrella, about 1/8 power. Upper camera left placement.
Steps in Shrewsbury Road Sheffield used by drug adicts and others with syringe and condom packets. These steps used to lead to tower blocks - all now demolished.
Back in 2007 Missy received a parcel from the States containing a selection of balls for dogs. One of them was a Huck. Hucks are very hard and heavy but they float on water Within days Missy was addicted.For the last 8 years a Huck has accompanied her on her Forest walks. She is very upset if one should get lost down a rabbit hole and cannot be retrieved. For a long time they were not available in the UK and I had to get replacements sent from the States or stock up on my visits to Canada,

I was listening to a documentary on CBC radio about how the Canadian health care system doesn`t take lung cancer seriously, they don`t value early diagnosis. They were saying that 70% of those with lung cancer smoked tobacco . As a result , there was no sympathy.
The way I see it, these people, by smoking, have cut short their lives by as much as 25 years . And just at a time when they are entering retirement and being a burden on the private and public pension systems. It`s just another conspiracy theory but it almost seems like tobacco is a way of killing off alot of people at a time when they are no longer contributing to society.This includes all other cancers caused by tobacco.
Then there is the 30% of lung cancer victims that don`t smoke and carry the same stigma.
Ok I can see tobacco as a very profitable form of population control by government and big business, but I can`t believe so many people are so stupid and have gone along with it. And even if they see what is going on, they won`t stop. They can`t stop, they are addicted.

I don't know just how it happened,
I let down my guard...
Swore I'd never fall in love again
But I fell hard.
Guess I should have seen it coming,
Caught me by surprise...
I wasn't looking where I was going,
I fell into your eyes.
You came into my crazy world like a cool and cleansing wave.
Before I, I knew what hit me baby you were flowing through my veins...
I'm addicted to you,
Hooked on your love,
Like a powerful drug
I can't get enough of,
Lost in your eyes,
Drowning in blue
Out of control,
What can I do?
I'm addicted to you!
