IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN: QUESTIONS I CANNOT PRESENTLY ANSWER


- If we can talk about a recently (September 2017) discovered skull of a species of present day muskox, the helmeted muskox, that was hunted by First Nations before becoming extinct about 11,000 years ago? Any connection or is this a politically incorrect question?

- Whether “celebrity” Beyoncé’s assertion that the recent September 2017 earthquake off Mexico’s coast was caused by climate change can be proven by science or remains just the moronic assertion of an equally moronic celebrity?

- Whether Millennials and subsequent generations will ever consider the wondrous world around them to be more interesting than their phones?

- Now that the last letter of the alphabet has been used to identify a generation, what appellations will be used to identify future generations?

- How heavy must become the irony before it is recognized that a binary gender union is required to produce a so called non-binary offspring?

- Whether Justin Trudeau’s voluminous rhetoric will ever contain anything of greater substance than a vacuum?

- Whether now dividing into “upper” and “lower” the label “middle class” contradicts the concept?; like having hips and a chest without a waist.

HEAD TREKS: Icing The EV Some months ago a journalist for a prominent Canadian newspaper published an article in support of battery electric vehicles (EV) as a more environmentally friendly alternative to internal combustion engines (ICE). This blog serves to rebut his thesis. The journalist’s argument falls flat for a number reasons. Firstly his statement “in an age of global warming” presupposes as yet unproven scientific “fact” rather than opinion, thereby invalidating his underlying argument of the absolute superior morality of the battery electric vehicle over the internal combustion engine. Furthermore, the current diminishment in sunspot activity may actually be signalling the onset of a minor ice age, with future global warming being required to cope therewith; but that remains for another essay. Secondly, in delineating his operational savings, he fails to take into account the massive government subsidies being thrown at the electric vehicle industry that completel...

“BUT I DIGRESS“  consists of  “HEAD TREKS”  that represent the conversion of random thoughts, sometimes in the form of  “QUICK TREKS” , observations, philosophies and rants into a form of modern cursive expression better known as computer keyboarding. From time to time these thoughts are also summarized under the heading  “IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN: QUESTIONS I CANNOT PRESENTLY ANSWER.” IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN: QUESTIONS I CANNOT PRESENTLY ANSWER -Whether today’s celebrity worship is an ongoing mental illness or merely a fad that will at some point, if not suffer a deserved demise, then at least, be blessed with the curative medicine of a society of higher intelligence? -Whether in temperate climates the normal passage from spring to summer to autumn to winter and back to spring again will be viewed as an historical pattern of climate change or alternatively, a barrier to the ideologies of many climate “scientists”? -Whether I will ever be able to com...

QUICK TREKS Canadians undergoing the after effects of recent Caribbean hurricanes certainly deserve our sympathy. But why do they think that their government has to rescue them from their personal misfortunes? Oh, I forgot. Entitlement operating within the parameters of the Nanny State mentality. If America is so racially unjust, how is it that some 70% of players in the National Football League and 74% of players in the National Basketball Association are black, and for the most part multi-millionaires? Perhaps their kneel-downs should be in thanks for the opportunity they have had to flourish within, however imperfect as are they themselves, a democratic environment that offers the opportunity for achievement through personal effort and not the myth of government handout. If America is so racially oppressive, why do these players stay? Could it be, dare I inquire……..the money? Just asking. Did Jerry Jones, owner of the Dallas Cowboys NFL football team, the world’s wealth...
