Xmas Breakfast next Week!
Henry is back at Birds! He’s looking pretty good but says he has a way to go before he fully recovers.
Xmas. Christmas breakfast is next week, Thursday December 14th. Bring a Christmas present (@$20). Yes, we will be having what used to be called ‘A Chinese Auction’. It is still called that until we call it something else.
Dues are due: Birds to pay $562.50 for 2018 membership. If you bring a cheque next week, Don Doolan will happily relieve you of it.
For a good read about Green House Gas and how Canada is ruining herself (himself?itself? zeself?) , take a gander at Gwynn Morgan’s feature in the National Post.
Members:
Brett Bain. Apple is going bananas. They’re reading the riot act (well, the warranty act) to Brett for being proactive about warranty work. Want to see what a pissed off Scot looks like? Come to breakfast.
Sean Baylis. Everyone wants to know about Bitcoin and cannabis stocks. Sean reminded us that good investment choices are companies that have earnings. Real earnings. He pointed at Aurora with a market cap of $2Billion and revenues of a million. Shrug. As for Bitcoin, Sean prefers the underlying structure called Blockchain Technology.
Jim Bladon.
Paul Boucher. Doing some localization voice work and birding about in cool, new wheels: a Honda CRV.
Ian Campbell. Recommended Rake on HBO. (Also watch Mindhunter and Godless on Netflix – Jim Bladon.)
Matt Dart.
Don Davis. Likes Victoria but senses an anomaly in the housing market.
Todd Dean. Son Alex is considering Medical School. Todd is considering adopting Alex out.
George Doherty.
Don Doolan. Delivered a pretty good rant. Had to be here.
Tony Fisher. Knows what Brett is going through, vis-a-vis warranty rollback.
Gord Forsyth . “I got nothing”, he said.
Mel Gibson. M el says the darnedest things in the nicest voice: “ Efficiency Alberta is an … oxymoron.”
Henry Heuver. One minute I was hammering a nail into a tree and the next, I awoke in the hospital.
David Hicks. Very impressed with Dwayne’s son. He has a great work ethic. Rare these days.
Dan Kennelly. Before switching from halogens to LEDs on dimmer circuit, change the dimmer to an LED version. Otherwise … • Husky spending $3B on drilling pads. LNG plant in Squamish heating up.
Matt Litke.
Andy Lockhart. Bugs, I tell you. Bugs! Andy’s AZ property needs termite and black widow spider suppression.
J.D. MacDonald. Business is up one week, down the next.
Michael McLennan.
Ross Mikkelsen.
Mike Mikkelson . Flames games attendees are mostly ticket users not owners. Only 20% actually own their own seats.
