Herman took this photo of a Typical Alberta Sunrise - Oil n Grain
and decided to share it with some interesting Alberta factoids
1. The phrase "trick or treat!" first began in Alberta.
Halloween's history goes back hundreds of years, but the earliest known use of "trick or treat" didn't occur until 1927 in Blackie, Alberta, when a newspaper reported on costumed "pranksters" uttering the phrase at different houses. (Before that, were probably just saying "gimme candy.")
2. The world's longest beaver dam is in Wood Buffalo National Park and measures 850 metres (or 2,790 feet) long.
The enormity of the dam wasn't noticed until someone spotted in on Google Earth in 2007, but apparently several generations of beavers have worked on the dam since 1975. The dam beat the previous record set by one in Three Forks, Montana, which was 652 metres (or 2,140 feet) long.
3. Instead of a key to the city, honourees in Calgary get a white cowboy hat and have to say the most stereotypically Albertan pledge ever.
Keys are nice and all, but cowboy hats are way cooler. The lucky recipients receive a white Smithbilt hat and, with their right hand raised, must recite the following oath:
"I, [recipient's name], havin' visited the only genuine Western city in Canada, namely Calgary, and havin' been duly treated to exceptional amounts of heart-warmin', hand-shakin', tongue-loosenin', back-slappin', neighbour-lovin' Western spirit, do solemnly promise to spread this here brand of hospitality to all folks and critters who cross my trail hereafter. On the count of three, we will all raise our hats and give a loud 'Yahoo!'"
4. The town of Vulcan, Alberta has totally embraced the whole Star Trek thing.
To promote tourism, Vulcan features a Star Trek museum and has its own 31-foot replica of the Enterprise next to a spaceship-shaped visitors' centre. The plaque at the base of the replica is written in English, Vulcan, and Klingon. (But not French?!) Advertisement
5. Oh, and the town of St. Paul features a UFO landing pad (you know, just in case).
And in case that's not good enough for you, there's also a UFO tourist information centre, where you can see "actual photographs of UFOs, crop circles, and cattle mutilations."
6. The city of Lloydminster is shared by Alberta and Saskatchewan.
Lloydminster straddles the border between Alberta and Saskatchewan, and instead of fighting over the territory, the provinces agreed to just share it. Aww, typical Canadian cooperation.
7. In 2012, 54 male babies in Alberta were named after Mortal Kombat characters.
The 2012 list of registered baby names in Alberta includes 39 boys named Jax, 13 named Raiden, one named Stryker, and one named Smoke. OK, maybe some of those were just coincidences and had nothing to do with Mortal Kombat, but let's just pretend it was all on purpose. Advertisement
8. Wolverine is from Alberta.
OK, this is less "adorable" and more "brutally, brutally sexy," but it's true: According to Marvel history, Wolverine was born in Cold Lake, Alberta in the 1880s. You'd think he'd have learned to keep a shirt on by now, but let's hope nobody ever ever teaches him.
9. A homeless woman in Calgary once found and returned a purse that had more than $10,000 in it.
In 2012, the woman saw a vehicle drive off, leaving a purse behind — and when she looked inside the bag, she found $10,400. She didn't think twice about surrendering the purse to Calgary police, money and all. "It never crossed my mind to keep the money," she said. "It’s not mine to keep. I didn’t think [about] keeping it at all." 10. Boston Pizza was actually founded in Edmonton.
Don't be fooled by the name! The first Boston Pizza was opened by Greek immigrant Gus Agioritis in Edmonton, and it was called the Boston Pizza and Spaghetti House. Nothing screams "Boston" like Alberta, right? (Not that anyone's complaining — mmm, pizza.)
11. Every Canadian can thank Calgary for inventing the delicious and dangerous Bloody Caesar.
Tasked with creating a signature drink to celebrate the opening of a new Italian restaurant, bartender Walter Chell invented the Caesar at Calgary's Westin hotel in 1969. He remembered going to Italy where spaghetti would be served with tomato sauce and clams, so he decided to mash some clams up and mix them with tomato juice. And so began a delicious Canadian tradition (that occasionally gets a little out of hand).
12. An Alberta man once tried to eat his own underwear in order to pass a breathalyzer test. (Maybe he had too many Caesars.)
In 1985, an 18-year-old in Stettler, Alberta was stopped by police under suspicion of driving under the influence. Believing that the cotton in his undies might absorb the alcohol in his stomach, he ripped off part of his shorts and stuffed them in his mouth. The kicker? It turned out that his blood-alcohol level was under the legal limit anyway. Oh, honey.
13. A ranch in southern Alberta once employed The Sundance as a ranch hand — y’know, before he got into robbing banks and stuff.
Before he teamed up with Butch Cassidy and the Wild Bunch, Harry “Sundance” Longabaugh was employed at the Bar U Ranch in southern Alberta. Why he’d choose the excitement of robbing banks over shoveling cow poop, we’ll never understand.
14. And every year during Stampede season, Calgarians serve and consume more than 200,000 free pancakes.
A lot of attention goes to the horses during the Stampede, but the real treat has nothing to do with the animals. Every year, hundreds of businesses and volunteers offer their time and resources to put on free pancake breakfasts for visitors during the Stampede — and you can even get some free bacon and coffee out of the deal. Yum.

Ronnie lead me too their room, pausing to kiss me deeply as she opened the door.
" If you don't mind we will keep the lights on so shelly can see better". she patted the bed for me to sit "I would perfer you do not talk to shelly, he gets his pleasure from what I do. Also please do not try to eat my pussy, other than that anything is fair game. Is this all OK with you?"
"Oh yes" I grin " I find this all to be very exciting"
She walked to stand in front of me , leaning down our lips wet and as our tongues danced wildly together, my hand her inner thigh, delighting in the discovery of stocking tops, her moans goading me on as my fingers lightly tease her soft skin, the a loud groan rushes from me as I find her wet bare pussy, with a moan her hand suddenly grabs my own forcing it against her wet mound
breaking the kiss she bit her lip, looking deep into my eyes as my fingers pushed into her wetness
she pulled the dress up over her hips just as the door opened and her husband came in. her legs spreading slightly as I started to fuck her pussy.
looking over her shoulder "STRIP"
"Yes Mistress"
Kneeling by the bed and fumbling with my belt and zipper until she pulled my hard throbbing cock
" so much bigger than you little Shelly, he is going to fill me so well"
"Yes Mistress"
She pulled my pants down over my hips as her mouth sank over my shaft, I undid my shirt as she pulled my pants down
Her head bobbing up and down on my cock until it was slick and wet
pushing me onto my back she looked down on me
"I'm gonna fuck you now"
I shuffled into the center of the bed as she straddled my body, rubbing my shaft with her slick hot pussy
looking at her husband
"guide his big cock into your wifes pussy shelly"
scrambling to the side of the bed, holding my cock firmly, he watched as she slowly lowered her pussy over my hard shaft
"good boy" she moaned as my cock filled her "now WATCH"
thrusting her hips down hard on me moaning loudly, my hands squeezing her breasts through her dress, pushing up to meet her
"So big.... yesssssss"

{ Fantasy Story } The conference was over, but my plane didn't fly out until morning. Sitting alone in my room did not appeal to so down to the lounge for a good whiskey and some people watching.
One advantage of the visiting the city was the variety of people, Business men and woman, romantic couples, people just passing time like me.
I watched a very pretty curvy blonde walk through the lounge, late thirties, black dress with matching stiletto's , I think every man in the place was watching her. She sat down in a booth with an older gentleman at first I thought work colleagues, but I could tell from the way the looked at her it was something more.
I went on with my people watching nursing my drink for mins or so, contemplating heading back to my room when suddenly a drink was set down in front of .... looking up I saw the lucky gentleman from the blondes table.
"Hi,mind if I join you?"
without waiting he sat down....
"Sorry to bother you, I noticed you when you came in, and it didn't look like you were waiting for anyone?"
"Nope, I'm just having a drink to avoid a lonely hotel room"
" I figured something like ... would you care to join us?"
well now thats better than a lonely room.... "sure that would be great"
Moving back to their booth I sat across from him with the blonde in the middle
offering her hand the blonde introduced herself " Hi I'm Ronnie, this is my husband Sheldon"
"Pleased , I'm Herman"
We visited for about an hour... idle chit chat, laughing and enjoying our drinks
Suddenly she turned to her husband "shelly go the !" she ordered
He got up quickly and left us alone
Putting her hand on my thigh she looked in the eye
"would you like to fuck ?" she asked very directly
"ummmmmm" I stammered "your married .... and he is HERE"
"its not cheating if he is watching!" she squeezed my swelling cock as she said it
"watch?"
"Yes shelly likes to watch" Taking my hand she pushed me out of the booth and lead me across the lounge to the elevators
'Shouldn't we wait for your husband?"
"He knows where to find us" standing close as we wait for the elevator he hand started to rub against my cock
the doors open and she pulls me into the elevator, dropping to her knees as the door closed
undoing my slacks "floor 28" as I press the button she slowly licks my cock " I was right.... so yummy"
Sliding my hard cock into her mouth... sucking it up and down 3 times
then standing up and kissing me deeply... "better put away until shelly catches up... now if this is to out there for you I understand... "
the elevator opened on floor 28 and she stepped out and turned to face
without hesitation I stepped out with her watching her face break into a very sexy smile
