Not for me...

Image one: Facebook, That ain't right, November 29, 2021

Not for me...My low carb, low sugar diet would allow me to eat the beef and maybe one cookie. 

It is amazing to me that as the guy nicknamed the Kingpin (like the Marvel villain, but with hair) by Mr. Bobby Buff, I have never been motivated to attempt eating that decadently and I am also turned off by eating competitions.

My Dad is the cook (for now anyway, he may move somewhere warmer) and a very good one...this is all on the Zombie. (Two December events with the Zombie coming over should be interesting)

That cat is yet another happy customer...

One liner comments my friend, Mr. Bobby Buff says I should share

• I do on this website....

• The photo is from last evening downtown Maple Ridge, just prior to the version on My Story on Facebook.

• Paraphrased from the drive last night, which included taking the photos.
---

• I am only actively interested in true love, not true lust.

• I am finite and sinful.

• Denying God will grant a good thing, does not equate to denying the goodness of God.

• x = God as good

• y = good thing

• x ˜   y 
(God as good does not entail a good thing)

• x ˜ ⊃ y
(God as good is not the same as a good thing) 

• The point stands, logically and reasonably, but if God promises a thing, God will grant it, eventually.

• 1 John 5:14-15 from the New American Standard Bible 

• And this is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked before Him.

• True enough, God usually answers my prayer with a fix. 

• I have been 'whitening' my teeth, slightly with product, not 'pretty girl' white though.

• I am not interested in white as snow teeth, for myself.

• My teeth are more shiny as opposed to more white.

• A top of a bottom tooth has recently become translucent, I was concerned.

• The dentist assured me today it was not enamel erosion.

Message from Santa

Not that I am perfect, but I will add, bible dictionaries, biblical commentaries, theology texts, philosophy texts, and for some, science textbooks.

1 Billion from Quebec government for the Nordiques?

Sporstnet November 20 2021: Nordiques return?

Well, that would solve many of the Quebec is too small of a market objections. That 1 billion is not including potential corporate support and ownership of the franchise. Plus a newish arena already exists.

Arnold...

I am hoping to see Steve in Paradise when my life is over in Jesus Christ and his applied gospel work.  Paradise: Luke 23, 2 Corinthians 12,  Philippians 1

My friend told me last night, if our minds were in a (Gold's) gym, my mind would be like an Arnold Schwarzenegger (in body). No, he was not stating I would have a mind like Arnold's.

I am finite and sinful, everything good and bad that happens to me is primarily from God, that is infinite and perfectly holy.

Brief Monday Images: Contrary opinion

Image A: The Rhino, The Bull

Image B: I have studied psychology as a hobby for several years. I subscribed to that gentleman's related You Tube channel last week and that question came up tonight.

To be clear, I really have no particular interest in a waitress (server in Canadian language, he is from Australia) or a lawyer/attorney.

I am not going to try and deduce clearly the psychology behind the two choices, because I do not want to guess. However, I am attracted to Christian intellectuals, and although both a lawyer and a server could be a Christian intellectual, career-wise, in general, a lawyer would more likely be an intellectual.

I do think, based on my years of studying psychology as a hobby, that this poll indicates that many men are not that interested in intellectual women, or highly intelligent women. My contrary opinion has me in the minority.

Trusted might not be too trustworthy


Photo one: My setup
Photo two: London Drugs

I do quite a bit of work on my computer and online. The two previous USB hubs I have owned were plastic and seemed to overheat. This new one is aluminum, which might work better and last longer. Last night, my computer keyboards began malfunctioning. I eventually determined that one of the USB ports was dead. I have three USB ports on my laptop, but I need at least four-five more  ports on a hub, at this point.

I went to the local London Drugs today. The representative suggested a hub system about the same price as the one I purchased, but it only had three two ports in total, not enough. I therefore, bought their own London Drugs 'trusted' brand, hub, which has  seven ports, plus two connections for power. I now have three extra ports.

The representative said to keep the box, because (paraphrased) 'trusted' might not be too trustworthy.

I live in the wilds of Maple Ridge, if someone lives closer to a larger city, closer to Vancouver or Abbotsford, and can suggest a better option, for a USB hub, if this one fails me soon, please feel free to comment or email me at

The blue led indicator (or red) reminds me of the impressive flashiness of keyboards and headphones from The Rage...

• I can sort of relate to the image...

• Friday, January 05, 2018 It's a miracle? (PhD Edit)

• A friend of mine today on Zoom, Sir Robin from Florida (originally England), a history teacher, told me (paraphrased) that I cannot help but state complex things when I teach philosophy of religion, because philosophy of religion has significant complexity.

• Sir Robin stated that I do not make something more complex than it needs to be.

• Complexity is a problem for anyone in complex academic fields, whether science, psychology, philosophy, theology, etcetera that attempts to explain his/her findings and views.

• The gospel here within a Christian worldview assists in particular...

• Ideas should be presented in both love and truth.

• New American Standard Bible (NASB)

• John 13:34-35  34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” 

• I John 4:20 If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.

• Jesus Christ within the great commandment (Mathew 22, Mark 12, Luke 10), mentions that the second commandment is to love all persons as neighbours as one loves self. The first commandment to love of God with the fullness in mind and spirit. 

• This is the God of the Hebrew Bible and New Testament.

• Unique video and advertisement, for sure...
