    I saw it a while ago and enjoyed it.  I knew it was an Irish civil war satire though.  Still, not a feel good movie but then, that is what Hallmark is for.

    ..and I don’t use different words in the vicinities of my daughters and they have excellent coping skills. 
     
    The bigger problem isn’t the word I used, it is that I used it.  It triggered an unreasonable reaction with team liberal, and as always, Razor, Sue and you have to jump on the hate caravan to squash the big mean conservative.

    Okay, a story you will either like or hate.  
    My best friend through elementary, high school and university is Chinese descent. Like your parents, his immigrated from MLC and owned a convenience store in Burnaby. Raymond and I did everything together and played baseball and soccer on the same teams.  He was an excellent athlete.  Raymond has a law degree, actuarial degree and is a CA.  He attended UBC for 12 years and I did a mere 4 and went to work.  I had just finished my tour in the AF and was back living in Vancouver flying for an airline and running a construction company.  Ray called me and asked if I could have a look at his mothers stairs from her deck.  I looked at them and said yes, these are hazardous but there is no point in fixing them unless we fix the deck which doubled as her carport roof.  
    She had some money but not enough that I could pull a framing crew off other projects so I offered to do it myself.  It took a couple of weeks to demo the existing structure, haul it away and rebuild the 25 x 30 deck and stairs.  Every day, mamma would cook me a fresh lunch and even though she barely spoke English, we had some interesting conversations.  She told me in one that "Layman"  was a stupid, stupid boy.  "He go school 12 year, then university 12 year and he can no build mamma deck".  I was thinking, it was kind of skewed logic that she placed hands on skills and knowledge over his very superior education.  It was because he lacked the life skills of basic construction.  Those were paramount to her and her husbands survival. 
  22. Wilbur's post in Are you ready for an economic recession -- if it happens? was marked as the answer   
    I am not at all worried about a recession.  They come and go.  I am worried about the US dollar and its losing ground as the reserve currency now that Russia, China, Saudi, Brazil and Pakistan are willing to trade in Chinese currency.  That may really affect us. 
  23. Wilbur's post in No correct answers. was marked as the answer   
    One does have to pre-qualify so it isn’t like she is a dummy.  Not her areas of knowledge or maybe nerves.  Either way, it won’t bolster her confidence.
