why am I in Blubber Bay?
Our so-called friends 🙂 dumped us at the Powell River ferry landing 5 hours before our departure.
What to do?
Another ferry for Texada Island was just leaving. Why not joy ride over and back in our spare hours?
Though it’s the largest island in the Strait of Georgia of British Columbia, nobody has ever heard anything about Texada. Very few tourists have visited. For good reason. 😦
The only ferry lands in Blubber Bay. In 1970 there were 35 families here. Meg and Jennifer Tilly once lived here before fleeing to Victoria. The day we arrived there was one guy in a gift shop. And a few squatters.
The whale flensing station is closed. The quarry looked closed.
Despite having no active employees, some Union members are still seemingly drawing disability insurance.
The highlight of Blubber Bay was sitting on some rocks. Watching dogs fight over sticks.
farewell David Letterman
Late Show with David Letterman debuted on August 30, 1993 …
I was an early fan.

Ron Shewchuk and I liked how he revered the trivial. And trivialized the famous.
Jessica Winter was a bigger fan:
His subversive comedy transformed the entertainment landscape—and made me who I am today.
But it’s been decades since I’ve been able to muster enough interest to watch more than a Top 10 list.
I’ll certainly be following the Late Show with Stephen Colbert starting September 8, 2015. But I’m assuming my interest will dwindle quickly. Unscripted celebrity interviews are like torture.
Peele and Key – Negrotown
In “Negrotown,” main characters Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key imagine a utopia for black people where “you can walk the street without getting stopped, harassed or beat.” …

comedian Scott Vrooman for Canadian Senate
Any comedian is better than the entitled, unelected Senators we have now. 🙂

Most Canadians support either abolished or reformed Senate: poll:
About 41% of Canadians would support abolishing the Senate, Ottawa’s greatest wellspring of gossip, scandal and outrage. Another 45% want it reformed, while only 14% think it should be left as it is, according to an Angus Reid Institute poll.
I want it abolished. Only the NDP is calling for abolishment.
Archie Bunker on Gun Control and terrorism
This is still as funny today as it was when this satire was first aired. Gundamentalists agree with Archie. There’s no reasoning with them. Or with Archie Bunker.
