Long live the beaver, eh.

With the Olympic Winter Games almost done I would like to give an Olympic sized hug to the Canadian women athletes that made this game so enjoyable.

With a proven track record like this and an incredible showing in Italy, I can't wait for 2010 as it should be declared the year of the beaver.

The Trampification of Mother Teresa.



Paris Hilton as Mother Teresa, hey it wasn't my idea.

What about John Goodman as Ghandi or Keanu as Albert Einstein? Please fell free to offer more really bad casting ideas in comments.

David Emerson, enough already.



Ok, ok, enough already. I'm sure Vancouver-Kingsway really wanted a member of the opposition so badly that they are willing to spend all kinds of money on a by-election to get one. So Ian Waddell, if your still interested in sitting opposite the government on behalf of the constituents of Vancouver-Kingsway in a re-do, have at it.

I'm sure David Emerson could easily sit in one of the seats surrounding Vancouver so he can get some work done on a very important file. Or, the Liberal riding association and other parties and MP's can shut the hell up so Emerson can get on with the work he was doing in November.

PM Dilbert.

Andrew Coyne wants a nickname for our new PM Harper. I read this cartoon during the election and thought this would be a good nickname for Harper if he became PM. Going from Dithers to Dilbert works for me.

Muhammad, The Prophet, The Best Beloved.

Given the unbelievable insensitive nature of some of the cartoons being published that depict one of the great contributors to human civilization, I am reminded of something I read ten years ago.

First one needs to remember the climate in which Muhammad lived.

Muhammad appeared in the desert of Hijaz in the Arab Peninsula, which was a desolate, sterile wilderness, sandy and uninhabited. Some parts, like Mecca and Medina, are extremely hot.Pg 22(1)


The people that Muhammad lived with were gripped in the deepest of savagery and barbarism.

the people are nomads with the manners and customs of dwellers in the desert, and entirely destitute of education and science. The Banu-Tamim tribe would bury their daughters alive, glorying in it as an honorable thing to do. Thus many of the men would threaten their wives, saying, "if a daughter is born to you, I will kill you."Pg.19 (1)


The mission of the Best Beloved Muhammad can only be described as the work of the Holy Spirit. In my opinion, a work that should be likened to a return of the Christ.
His message of love and community and some scientific fact to these people was met with the severest oppression and cruelty as the nomadic tribes united against him.

The first question which He put to them was, "Why do you not accept the Pentateuch and the Gospel, and why do you not believe in Christ and in Moses?" They argued," Our forefathers did not believe in the Pentateuch and the Gospel."
In such a country, and amidst such barbarous tribes, an illiterate Man produced a book in which, in a perfect and eloquent style, he explained the divine attributes and perfections, the prophethood of the messengers of God, the divine laws and some scientific facts
.Pg.23-23 (1)


Muhammad's contribution to humanity is well documented and worthy of everyone's respect. During the middle ages, While Europe was in the lowest depths of barbarism , the Arab peoples were superior to the other nations in learning, in the arts, mathematics, civilization, government and other sciences.

Our Best Beloved Muhammad was the Enlightener and Educator of these different Arab tribes, A Founder of the nation state form of government and Illuminator of human perfections through justice, a corner stone of western civilization.

I'll end this post with Muhammad's direction to his followers about a community of Christian people that lived in Najran and were under his care and protection.

"If anyone infringes on their rights, I myself will be his enemy, and in the presence of God I will bring a charge against him." In the edicts that He promulgated it is clearly stated that the lives, properties and honor of the Christians and Jews are under the protection of God.Pg.21(1)
