Re: Mall has gone to the dogs, . I spoke to one of the merchants in Denman Mall and a lady was bitten by a dog about two weeks ago outside the mall. They looked for a security person but no one was around so the lady left. What next? Who does one call if this were to happen to them in the future?

Re: No joy in global warming, . Oh man, someone finds the pretty little hummingbird joyful and you have have to dump on him? Global warming isnt just an ecological disaster thats looming, its here. So the fact is you have to deal with it. Go out in the sun and get some colour and enjoy the birds that are coming your way. Do your part to introduce species that will be part of our lives.

My sincerest sympathies go to whose lives are totally being ruined by theonly companion many elderly people have left in their lives (their dog) and have the nerve to take theminto Denman Mall; by theatre goers who have the nerve to sit behind you with a bag of popcorn; by people who have the nerve to contribute to cleaner air by using their bike; by homeless people who have the nerve to ask you to help them out or whose dumpster diving wokeyou from your well deserved sleep in your comfortable warm bed. Apparently there are still huge lots of Crown land available for lease where you can build your own little privatenirvana. Just be careful you dont suffer an early demise from... boredom.

A couple of Sundays ago I got home and realized I had left my black change purse, with more than $40 in it, in one of three places Id shopped that day. Imagine my surprise and delight when I asked at Whole Foods (Broadway and Cambie) and Brian C. in customer service handed it to me with all the money in it! My appreciation to him, for sure, and also to the person who turned it in. I had plans for that money which I was able to fulfill.

Ive continued watching the Occupiers around the world and the responses of the police, compared to Vancouver, have been ridiculously brutal. When police are hurting people instead of protecting them, theres something very wrong with a society. Im really proud of Vancouvers police. They were very restrained and professional.

Re: Dont sit behind me, . We live in a very ignorant and self-serving society. The good book tells us that in end times, people will be lovers of themselves. In other words, the majority of society doesnt give a rats ass about anyone other than themselves. We see this every day. The good book also tells us hearts will be waxed cold with one another. Its happening. People are so miserable, one could say its a case of misery loves company. So much for respectful, quiet times at the movies.

The urban gardens look horrendous 90 per cent of the year. Theyre just a museum of dead weeds. Is there any way we could just put a picture of a flower or carrot up?

I was just thinking about how the right wing and left wing in B.C. co-operated after Gordon Campbell brought in the HST attack. What if (former Newfoundland premier) Danny Williams, who never got along with Stephen Harper, wanted to lead an alternative conservative party? He could tear Stephen Harper in half like a tissue paper in a debate.

Last year, six months of the year, I had to wait for my disability cheque for a week. Its not enough to live on for even four weeks but they figure five weeks is what you have to wait. When you add it up, they didnt even pay us for a month.

Re: Youre killing me too, . Im a reformed smoker who doesnt mind second hand smoke. I still enjoy the smell but will never have one again, that would make me puke.
