I Samuel Chapter 8, King James Version. Note that God did not want man to be ruled by man. God predicted taxes, wars, and conscriptions if Israel should have a King: 1 And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel. 2 Now the name of his […]

Had a very interesting chat with my brother about the proposed bicyle helmet law in Ontario. My brother attends a Brethren Gospel Hall (the Brethren don’t like it to be referred to as Church). The Brethren believe in the absolute inerrancy of Scripture (The Holy Bible). My brother mentioned that he would never ever wear

I didn’t make it tonight. Which is very unfortunate, especially considering that Bob Tarantino and I were kind of organizing the thing. A whole bunch of things came up including some interesting things with my landlord. These “interesting” things have included an original proposal from him to raise my office rent 50% (not going to

I have received an email from Warren Kinsella that has a much more conciliatory tone, and for which I appreciate. He has asked me to post a note to the effect that I did not mean to imply, or insinuate, that our father and mother were “retards,” and in with that, any legal action will
First, my condolences to Messrs. Warren and Lorne Kinsella on the passing of their father some months ago. My own father passed away and I do know the pain of that. I had no idea that the Kinsella’s lost their dad recently. Having said that, Mr. Kinsella seems to have a different interpretation of what

It’s amazing the logic of some folks, especially whoever wrote today’s editorial in the Star.

Now I’m curious. What in the world would start Warren Kinsella’s legal team off threatening folks with “defamation” law suit notices? He does babble an awful lot, don’t you think? Apparently both Shamrocks and Damian from Babbling Brooks have been “bullied” as one of them said, by the great Warren. Personally, I think Kinsella has

“The fight against terrorism will only be won if the rights of individuals are respected” ~ Prime Minister Paul Martin According to The Star, that’s what Paul says. But the same article states Paul is heading off “to Budapest, Hungary, to attend the Progressive Governance Summit, a gathering of left-of-centre world leaders.” I wonder if
It seems to me that the quality of health care, in a single tier system, should somehow (I have no freaking idea how, but those that know better than me can explain) should mean fairness of all. Apparently it means no one jumps the queue based on wealth. Uh huh. Yes.. unicorns and mermaids exist.
