The Last Jedi

After the clusterfuck disaster that was The Force Awakens, I decided never to watch another so-called Star Wars movie. This review of the next installment in Disney's cash grab, The Last Jedi, is to the point and hilarious and makes me long for days past.

Each of us, by our existence, invokes a universe ... from the space, matter, time and energy around us ... that would otherwise be formless. As we pass, so does that universe.

Time Will Tell

Damn ... these lads are good. A performance that is gorgeous in its message, depth and simplicity.

Luna on her cushion

It's not actually HER cushion, but she likes to think it is.

Now I've been crazy, couldn't you tell?
I threw stones at the stars, but the whole sky fell
Now I'm covered up in straw, belly up on the table
Well I drank and sang, and I passed in the stable

Trouble brewing

Some very nice pics taken in Canada's north.

The nice thing about -40 is that you don't have to ask "Is that celsius or fahrenheit?"

McCulloch Peak

A nice pic of the Cascades from McCulloch Peak with fog over the valley, by Peter. Of all the places I have run, none has changed my life like McCulloch Peak. The Hike was such a wonderful gift. I will always be grateful. I hope it goes on forever.

I've gotten as used to Vancouver as I'm gonna.

Anna's Hummingbird

A beautiful picture of an Anna's Hummingbird, in the care of Wildlife Rescue of BC. On the mend after striking a window. Expected to make a full recovery. Good luck little one.

If I ever figure myself out ... that WOULD be special :) Most of me hopes I don't.

Still ... falling.
Breathless and on ... again.
Inside ... today.
Beside me ... today.

Dad. I wish you were here. Your beautiful granddaughter Kayla has had her own beautiful daughter: Darcy Quinn Schnekenburger. You would be so proud of both of them. Darcy is simply wondrous. A new sunrise on so many lives. Keegan is a good man. Together Kayla and Keegan will raise a wonderful person. I know you would add Darcy's picture to your wallet, right next to Rydra and Kayla :) We miss you.

Darcy Quinn

Marilyn and I became grandparents today! Her name is Darcy Quinn. A beautiful name for a beautiful girl. So very, very happy. Cannot wait to meet you angel. So very proud of your mother. You look just like her.

I just found out sir. I remember the first time we met ... in RB 1042. I remember taking your multivariate stats course, the only course I had with you. You called me into your office after the first class. You said … and I quote … “I don’t like your attitude!” What you didn’t like was me chewing gum and drinking coffee during your class. So I stopped doing those things. It was a tough course, but you were always available to help. You offered to help with the stats on my thesis. I remember taking walks with you on the campus to talk about my numerical problems. You always had good advice. I remember playing squash with you. I remember drinking liquor with you in your office, from the bottle you hid in your desk. You never called me Frank. I never called you Tom. They don’t make them like you anymore sir. So very, very sad that you are gone. Rest in peace dear Herr Hazenberg.

This is your brain on data

It is imperative that you always remember ... you are loved.

Time Room

Time Room: A room within which the rate at which time passes (time flow) may be arbitrarily increased or decreased, relative to local time flow. Within a time room, all processes (physical, chemical, biological, quantal, etc.) occur at rates proportional to the room's time flow. Consequently, from within a time room, there is no way to tell whether the room's time is flowing faster or slower than local time.

Marilyn gets odd days, I get even :)

I don't do data.

My boss: "Do you procrastinate?"
Me: "Can I get back to you on that?"
