    c.s. Wave Venture at Ogden Point, Victoria B.C.
    Photo taken on a bright, sunny but windy day in, 2007. This photo marks the end of an era - not only for the c.s. (cable ship) Wave Venture but for the old Cable and Wireless Marine, (latterly Global Marine Systems,) Victoria Station. At the time this photo was taken, Wave Venture was loading cable from the depot and preparing to leave Victoria - probably for the last time...

    The gay, macho cowboy joke! Subject: TREATMENT PLAN A rugged cowboy from Brokeback Mountain, Wyoming, goes into the doctor's office and has some tests run. The doctor comes back and says, "I am not going to beat around the bush, You have AIDS." The cowboy tugs at his Stetson and sets his jaw and says, "Doc, what can I do?"
