Michael Jackson the self proclaimed "King of Pop" has died at the age of 50. EMS responded to a call at Jackson's LA residence and found the singer not breathing. CPR was performed on scene and Michael was transported to the hospital.
The cause of death has not been determined at this time.
Michael's Bizarre life created endless supply of material for the media to report on.
Regardless of what what said about the Man his contributions to music and the world remain unmatched. Now all the noise in his world will stop and maybe he can finally enjoy the happiness he desperately strived to achieve.
Peace be with you Michael.

Tori Stafford, Where is She
Tori Stafford, a name that dominated the media almost every minute of everyday now just a memory. With suspects in custody, court dates set there is still one thing missing. Where is Tori Stafford?
You really don't hear to much about her anymore. The odd time we hear the police are still looking for the remains of the little girl and that's about all.
It strange that the police are 100% sure she is deceased but really have no clue where the little girl lies.
It must be very hard for the family to accept she is gone with no physical evidence supporting the outcome. The whole Tori Stafford story has been very sad and was really a wake up call that this kind can happen anywhere at anytime.
Look after your children and let them know everyday how much they mean to you because in a heartbeat things can change.
Peace and Love to the Stafford family.

Wings&Wheels Flying High Again
Being an Airshow buff I decided to give myself a Fathers Day Gift and to the Wings and Wheels Airshow in St.Thomas this past weekend. Going in to the weekend the weather did not seem like it was going to be very good but one thing I have learned is that can change quickly.
Saturday was rough starting off but then cleared up enough to get the Airshow off the ground. Even though the show was delayed and abbreviated it was still a good one.
Sunday was excellent! Great weather along with an amazing list of performers made this airshow one that will be remembered for a long time to come.
We may not have the London Airshow anymore but those missing it will find the St.Thomas set up even better. I find you are closer to the show than ever and airspace seems better there as well.
Hopefully we will see a Wings and Wheels 3 in the future!!

LONDON ROADS A NIGHTMARE
What a Mess
On Monday I had to go into the City and I could not believe the mess that London is in right now. A person can not go anywhere without running in to Road Construction. It happened that I was in the Exeter Rd/Bradley Rd area and it was horrible. Long waits, signs not posted far enough a head caused major confusion on the road.
One has to wonder why this stuff was let go so long? Timing my little experience on Monday I discovered that I can drive from Strathroy to London in less time than I can cross the City, that's the truth.
London on a good day has major traffic issues so this road work is not helping. It's easy to see how Road Rage starts when one has to deal with this kind of stuff.
Hopefully when all is said and done the city gets these roads into good shape, stops these water mains from bursting and what ever else they are doing. Maybe it's a good think that the City has ditched almost every Summer Event they use to have because nobody likes sitting in traffic jams.

SNOWBIRDS REMAIN GROUNDED
Those anxious to see the Canadian Snowbirds fly over the skies in London will have to wait. The Snowbirds still remain on an operational pause after a problem was found in the planes ejection seats last week.
The team is scheduled to perform at the 2nd Wings and Wheels Airshow taking place in St. Thomas this weekend. At this time there in no confirmation that the Snowbirds will be at the show.
Although the fate of the team is still unknown, the Wings and Wheels airshow is still a go.

How to Survive the Recession
As more and more people lose their jobs or get their hours cut back at work people are really starting to come to terms that this is no joke, we are experiencing tough times. There are still some under the illusion that it is not that bad or that it is just in the Automotive Sector but that's not true.
So what do you do if this happens to you?
First off and I know this will sound impossible - Don't Panic, the good thing is that the problem is wide spread and because of that there is help.
Then you must examine the Situation. Are you laid off, is this temporary, do you have a back up plan for now. Most people do not have a plan because they were under the impression " this won't happen to me"
What do you have to offer and who do you know. There are still some industries like Construction that are actually doing quite well right now and you just may land a job in one of these. Remember that the job won't come to you, a little effort is needed in order for you to push ahead.
Don't expect the world on a platter. If you do find a new job there is a change you may not make what you were, this is where some people say "no" or "walk away" instead of using their brains and being thankful that they have an opportunity to work.
If you are a home owner or bill payer like most the the adult world people you owe are willing to work with you and help in tough times but you must communicate with them. Some people just stop paying bills or making mortgage payments DON"T!! This will catch up with you and ruin the solid relationship that you have built with these people.
If have have to cut back on some of the luxuries in life for a while so be it. This economic crunch will not last for ever so suck it up and live lean for a while.
Most of all do not let this ruin your family because they should be the most important thing to you. A strong family will conquer any obstacle thrown at them and that is exactly what this is an obstacle.
