It’s official — fracking is no longer a swear word!

Fracking is officially no longer a curse word. It became official last night when Kamala Harris – the Democratic Party presidential candidate considered by many to be environmentally “woke” – reversed her former stance by saying in a televised interview, “As president, I will not ban fracking.” Phew — now we can talk openly about the incredible evolution in energy production that fracking is. Misguided environmental activists must now choose another word to get behind. Ideally, it would be something...

Portuguese comic rising even faster than global sea level

I have always been a fan of stand-up comedy, and have even taken a turn at the mic a couple of times. I have great admiration for comedic greats such as Jerry Seinfeld, Robin Williams, and Dave Chappelle. But there is a real up-and-comer on the comedy scene that you must check out. He is absolutely hilarious. I don't believe that he realizes how funny he is, which is part of the comedic genius. His name is Antonio...

COVID Amnesty Day – it’s time to accept and move on

"How did it happen?" you might be saying. "How did an intelligent person like me get suckered into believing that the lock-down-and-vaccinate approach to the COVID-19 pandemic was a moral imperative? "It's not like I didn't know that politicians, medical officials, and health agencies have a rich history of corruption, deceit, and collusion (CDC). So, WHO on Earth is to blame for me giving them a free pass and blindly accepting – and even promoting...

Water-Main Whac-A-Mole – coming soon to thousands of cities throughout the world

Last Friday, Canadian city Montreal joined the exciting game sweeping the western world that I call Water-Main Whac-A-Mole (WM-WAM). Montreal took its turn with a pipe rupture that created a spectacular water spout, flooding streets in the south-central neighbourhood. City crews are working around the clock to repair the line while residents wait to see which section of pipe will burst next. Endless excitement for all ages! Thirty-six hundred kilometres to the west, Calgary has been playing WM-WAM for...

Alleged murderous moron sticks to facts like flies on … flypaper

I admit it – I am not the brightest bulb in the toolbox. In 2020 and 2021, as I was imploring people to stay active, continue connecting with people, and to think twice about lining up for new vaccines, I was ridiculed and attacked by many. I was given all of these lovely titles and more in online discussions: idiot, moron, loser, conspiracy theorist, killer, murderer. On numerous occasions, I had people in my network ask...

A call to arms … er, make that brains!

It is time to demand more from your brain. I believe that most people in my LinkedIn network are fairly intelligent. Yet far too many are led down the garden path by news media organizations, politicians, and other influential officials. For example, many believe that they are well informed because they are followers of such popular news sources as the New York Times, the Economist, the Globe & Mail, the Times of London, and the Telegraph. As soon...

Head for your underground bunker – a solar eclipse is on the way

On April 8 of this year, a total solar eclipse will be witnessed in many parts of Mexico, the United States, and Canada. Dubbed “The Great North American Eclipse” by some in the media, the hype brought me down memory lane … August 21, 2017, was still a sunny day when I pulled two cereal boxes out of my kitchen pantry, stuffed one plastic interior bag into the other, and cut a small rectangle out...

I have an important tip for the millions of new fans tuning in to watch the Super Bowl today: If you are rooting for the National Football League team on which Taylor Swift's BF Travis Kelce plays, any of the following cheers are perfectly acceptable: "Go Kansas City!" "Go KC!" "Go Chiefs!" However, unless you are cheering for a rock band formed in 1973 or you are giving Dorothy directions on a trip home from the Land of Oz,...
