Letter to Dr. Russ from the PM
I have never voted for the Federal Liberal Party. I do not know how I ended up on their mailing list, but I play along as a good Canadian. I even commented to them by email during the election. Someone suggested I was contacted because I have Dr. in front of my name.
40 pizzas in 30 days?: I like pizza, but in moderation

Meantime, a clip from the interview with Schnatter explaining his pizza consumption has gone viral ― for quite a few reasons. Here’s what people are saying:
Mans said he ate 40 pizzas in 30 days. Papa John’s sweat is 63% pepperoni at this point. https://t.co/7vAk7KRzOD — You Slander My Mother’s Baked Goods!!!! (@PBS_Impulse9) November 26, 2019

Quote: You are a real polymath!

You are a real polymath! A Gmail comment today from an associate and someone that almost finished his British, PhD thesis. Instead he focused on business pursuits. Polymath, is not a term I have ever used, but I appreciate the kind words. I prefer polymath to polytheist, polymorph, polygamist...
Well, whatever I know, by God's kindness, it was a new word to me...

I look out for 'everyone'. I eat much fibre and much protein. I do not digest much carbohydrates and sugar.

Like canned dog food
Quote
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to tell that this is truly a horrifying product. I think I would rather eat sushi bought from the back of a Honda Civic. But hey, A+ for creativity! While it gives back hours of cooking duty on Christmas, I think I'll wait for the turkey to cook.

This reminds me of my old German Shepherd-Husky and his canned dog food. I will either be invited out or have homemade chicken dinner...

Maple Ridge could use these?
 |
| Bored Panda |
If I was not recently paying attention, by God's grace, I could have been struck at a certain 224th Street, crosswalk, twice now.
One lady in a vehicle 'roared by' and waved to me. A previous time, a vehicle kept going and just missed striking the pedestrian in the wheelchair, just in front of me.
Seems to me, with many drivers, locally, there is an overall frustration with too many vehicles on the road, not enough road and not enough reasonable alternate transportation.
Add to that a recent more aggressive law enforcement in regard to speeding and traffic violations.

Another thing, I have mostly avoided
Another thing, I have mostly avoided...I use a paper towel when available. Especially after the movies and all that buttery popcorn.

The academy awards?
 |
| I lost a British PhD appointment for not conforming to the views of the academy. My scheduled and supportive, tutor, was away for a year. By God's grace, I moved on to somewhere in the United Kingdom more open-minded. |
Never heard do not touch the cubs?

| I personally would not imply a negative critique of immigrants, nor would I desire to be understood to be doing so. I support legal immigration and do not expect immigrants to have the exact same values as current citizens. But, I do not think Mr. Cherry should have been fired for exercising his freedom of speech, which upset many people that heard him. Being upset should not cancel the freedom of speech of others. Freedom of speech should be prohibited when it negates law and order (Romans 13 on law and order). I suppose it can be stated that Mr. Trudeau repented and Mr. Cherry did not, at least not fully... |

Saturday Bullets: Ontology
 |
| I personally do not care because, virtually universally, Mahavishnu Orchestra or Rush will not be played, anyway. I would appreciate serious classical music as an alternate to some of the repetitive Christmas music. I really enjoy Brahms, Wagner, Stravinsky, Vivaldi and others. |

| The previous barber, was her daughter...New 'hairstyle' for me. |
T. Patrick Burke (1999) describes ontology as dealing with the doctrine of being.
• Seems to me, a person ontologically, cannot change his/her ethnic origin/race.
• Seems to me, a person ontologically, cannot abstain from his/her ethnic origin/race.
(Cultures change, but ontological ethnic origin and race cannot change, or be abstained from, in a person. It is biology. At least with present medical science.)
• Seems to me, a person can ontologically abstain from act and action in regard to sexual preference.
• In this philosophical, ontological context, ethnic origin and race is not the equivalent to sexual preference.

Flawed heroes?
 |
| Facebook: I am not denying human progress (scientific, medical and social, as examples) with increased knowledge over time. I also accept that corrupted humanity is always tainted with worldviews and related paradigms within this fallen, sinful, realm. When the realm is divinely perfected through the atoning, resurrection and restoration work of Jesus Christ via God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 15, Revelation 20-22), we can consider humanity to have finite, perfection. Even heroes are flawed... |

| Facebook: I am not denying that scientific evidence for global warming, exists, but the current doom and gloom in the media has me wondering about the specifics! |

No definitive judgement here, but what I heard
X: My friend Y told me not to stay at a hotel in Maple Ridge, because the hotels there are filled with drug addicts.
X: I will probably stay in Langley; Pitt Meadows is a possibility.

No definitive judgement here, but what I heard.
I am also not deducing or stating that all (local or universal) homeless are drug addicts.
Any solution to this problem (these problems) will be tricky. May God help, Maple Ridge. At our complex here we have also recently faced more intense bin-diving, including the theft of recycling containers. Months ago, the Strata President and myself made a trip to a tent city to reclaim one of the containers from a security guard, outside of the compound.
A few weeks ago there was a 'panted bum' (thankfully, 'panted'!) sticking out of the locked main trash bin, and when I unlocked and opened the lid and placed non-recyclable trash inside, the gentleman left...

I will take that
X: Russ, I do not always agree with you, but you are very learned. As well you back up your arguments.
R: (I will take that...)
