It Makes Sense
You don’t expect spiritual truths from the daily comic strips in the newspaper. But this one yesterday, from the Pickles strip spoke to me with its understanding of God, humans and the relationship between us. He likes it when all we want to do is say hi, and maybe get caught up with each other.
Labour Day 2026
Today is a holiday in Canada. In the US also, though they spell it Labor Day. I guess the extra ‘u’ was too much like work, so they dropped it. Given that it is a holiday, I thought I would take today off – especially since today is a salute to workers, and posting here […]
Take A Break
I don’t remember how I wound up on the mailing list, but I admit i enjoy the emails enough to glance at them. Even if I have never bought the products.

Think About It
I thought about writing a commentary to go along with the image, but it really does speak for itself.

Some Assembly Required?
Cheaper than the chicken with bones, but the taste is rather different.
Darwin Was Wrong
There’s a certain amount of truth to that. If there was such a thing as evolution, it seems to have stalled. We don’t see apes becoming human. Though some humans do behave like apes, so maybe evolution reached its peak and is now being reversed..
