Watching Larry King live, watch the World Series, Game 3. (I keep wondering if he is going to head home for bed)

When there is water in the middle of the floor during a fire?

This just happened:

@work in Vancouver

Man (a colourful character, let us state) wearing a reflector vest pops head through the door and basically yells.

Paraphrased:

Man: What do you do here?

Me: We are the 'name my employer'...

Man: What do you do here?

Me: We are the 'name of my employer', we provide bibles.

Man: What do you do when there is a fire?

I walk towards him because he is quite loud.

Me: We call the fire department.

Man: What do you do when there is water in the middle of the floor where there is a fire?

Me: (Ending this) I have no idea.

Man departs...

Two NHL Canadian teams on US national television, first time ever regular season?

While at ministry work at my home office, I was also watching Prime Time Sports on Sportsnet and Mr. McCown stated, and had checked (paraphrased) that the game documented above will be the first regular season, National Hockey League game ever shown on American national television featuring two Canadian clubs. It will be on NBCSN. In other words, if this is correct, in the 100+ plus year history of the National Hockey League, the last half having significant television, this is the first non-playoff game.

NBCSN Maple Leafs vs. Jets Hockey Wed 4pm PDT

Imagine that, a blue maple leaf versus a red maple leaf. I will refrain from a cultural critique, but philosophically, it is beneficial to embrace the good from foreign cultures. 

I will now finish, as I need to make dinner for myself and the Boss and watch the World Series, Los Angeles Dodgers @ Boston Red Sox. I am not a baseball fan, per say, but have been hoping for this match-up for years.

Wait a minute...is neither club Canadian???

Anonymous Weekend Bizarre

Maple Ridge: Last week

This last weekend

(Paraphrased) We are late night dining with a group.

Dr. Russ: So, (friend), how many times a week do you go out for a meal?

Anonymous: About five times.

Anonymous: For years it used to be about fifteen times a week, but I have now cut back for health concerns.

Recently similar paraphrased conversations with this Anonymous and another Anonymous, repeated several times.

Paraphrased 2 Anonymous: Why don't you lock down (friend) for dating and marriage.

Dr. Russ: There is a long (fatal) list...

I do not have significant romantic attraction to her.

She is ageist.

She is in obsessively in love with a friend.

She thinks she is in a looks class above me.

(Something I and the 2 Anonymous deny)

She is anti-Reformed theology, not just non-Reformed theology, on several key points.

She mainly calls me for information in regard to our mutual friend that she is obsessively in love with.

She is liberal and I am a moderate conservative.

There are many other women I would prefer.

Paraphrased 2 Anonymous: Well, don't close the door.

Dr. Russ: The door has never been opened or slammed shut. It is shut.

Dr. Russ: These are fatal problems. I am interested in someone that actually has a spiritual, intellectual, physical mutual attraction with me and prayerfully considers and ponders on it.

Dr. Russ: Say you 2 Anonymous, why do you not pursue her?

2 Anonymous: (Both state similar reasons as me)

Vancouver, Saturday

Walter Thomas Franklin: (In the recent mayoral election)

I voted for all the male candidates, just as (wife) told me to.
