There is no issue of such great importance to the public, that some politician cannot possibly make worse. DIRECT DEMOCRACY is the only answer.

Snow on a tin roof...

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 26 Nov 20

Some snow slid off the roof today. It made a loud WHOOMP noise and shook the house. No big deal most times, but this time I realized just how vulnerable a person is when they are on the biffy with my pants around my ankles. For...

American Thanksgiving. And these people have nukes?

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 21 Nov 20

There is a case to be made for American stupidity. Certainly not on an individual basis, but rather collectively. During the recently passed election campaign, Trump's rallies were often referred to Super Spreader Events. Making a...

Rick Sanatorium. Fool for money.

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 5 Nov 20

Watching the election results for the US presidency is entertaining if you are a junkie like me, and as a Canadian it's needful. Because when America sneezes, we get a cold. I watch CNN because it's most often informative. But not...

Woooooowww!!!!

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 4 Nov 20

I am blown away that the American presidential election is as even as it is. That so many people would support a habitual liar as my head spinning so much that I'm nauseous. I know votes have yet to be counted, but...

A very good friend posted this picture on Facebook. And I grabbed a picture of it. It contains my new favorite word useable here. How nice.

Presidential race for $1M.

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 21 Oct 20

Trump or Biden? Who will win? Biden is probably going to mop the map with dead republicans. What do you think? Are all republicans self abusing morons? Or do you have unpleasant adjectives for Democrats? Kamala Harris will end...

I hate some TV shows

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 15 Oct 20

During the pandemic, there is more than the average amount of boredom going around. My wife is easily bored. Soooooo... Her escape is TV shows. But right now she's binge watching Lucifer. It is an offensive show in the dramatic...

Corvid Corner in the morning.

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 13 Oct 20

Nothing says morning for me that getting recognized as the feeder of the Corvids by the crows. They are patient, but I have one that screams when I go out. Sqaucks up a storm. I don't know if it's thanking me or telling me to F.O....

Stock trading

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 12 Oct 20

I don't understand how to trade stocks. I understand the actually monetary exchange in buying and selling. What are you investing in? How do you know that assumptions are correct and true? I don't trust people. I have been...

Long weekends. How i dislike them.

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 12 Oct 20

In Canada, it is the Thank Giving weekend. Monday, today, is a holiday. I normally suffer through them, but with COVID-19 making the rounds, having killed 215,000 in the US already, we are not in lock down. Some places probably...

My van is 8 years old.

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 9 Oct 20

I have a Dodge Grand Caravan. 2012, with an astounding number of kilometers on it. Clearly, we are high mileage users. :) I was driving it today. 83,3xx kms. That 51,7xx miles. The xx is a number I don't remember. And the worst...

Some of Trump's finest.

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 8 Oct 20

Today some of Trump's finest supporters were taken down by law enforcement for plotting to kidnap the Michigan governor, and overthrow the Michigan government. And while the guys may be Trump's finest supporters, they are equally...

I forgot how much fun this place can be.

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 7 Oct 20

Where else can you get paid for sticking some pointed words into a hornet's nest and stirring the nest to get things buzzing. Rebuplicans and Conservatwits (same thing in Canuckistan) are fair game. I've been away from this too...

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 7 Oct 20

This is my first time using a microphone to post. Well here we go. I can't imagine why I'd want to do this. This is amazing. Speech context is kinda neat. It does however require some getting used to. Having to think ahead of...

Been a while...

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 6 Oct 20

Sitting here, drinkin' my Coughee, I'm deep in thought. A British Columbian more than a Canadian. Yes, I know BC is a province of the country. But I am a westerner first. But with the COVID-19 I have narrowed my hearts home to...

What does Canada do about Trump?

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 28 Jan 17

So many on here and Facebook are equating Trump to Hitler. With cause I believe. BUT... Hitler was a disgusting jerk. The world ganged up on the axis powers and we did what we had to do to win. Including Hamburg and...

16 years after my sister was diagnosed and treated for breast cancer, she was biopsied for a nagging cough. The tests of lung fluid turned up cancer cells. After surviving breast cancer for so long, SURPRISE!! I have MS, my...

An accountant. My kingdom for an accountant

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 14 Aug 15

I am not in business, anymore. I am fully into politics. But Canada, like most 3rd world countries, seems to hate democracy. Oh we vote, at least some of us do anyway... And we have elections to select parliamentarians to...

Cancer doctors and the system

Mike Summers @BCRMike (355) • Vanderhoof, British Columbia 13 Aug 15

While I appreciate the fact that doctors have gone through years of hell to get to where they are now. Eight years just to become a GP, more if they want to specialize. It's a long hard slug through the cesspools of other...
