Jesuits run on doubt, so I wasn't surprised but always appreciated Francis's message to atheists. When asking for prayers, he added 'If you cannot pray, or do not believe, think of me' - and in general, the non-believer should 'confront themselves with their conscience & the wisdom of their people.'

At work today we got a roll of quarters from the bank and inside it was mostly US quarters with a few Austrian Schillings and German Deutschmarks thrown in.

Cycling to work this morning @ Quadra and Johnson and a guy in a mobility scooter runs a red light and comes literally within inches of getting completely smoked by an oncoming car. I yelled at the dude but he just kept going, completely oblivious. Incredible to watch. #yyj

A local election candidate was walking around with his nomination papers & stopped a random guy and asked him to witness the document with his signature. This guy was confused--it was clear English was not his first language but to be polite he signed them, not knowing the candidate was a dick.

I was concerned about the increasing amount of moss in the lawn until I realized if it completely takes over I can sell my lawnmower.

This is a fun little short story--it's a quick read--about an exasperated clerk. The plot was later borrowed for a Heinlein book that was in turn borrowed for the most famous episode of a classic '60s TV show which will become obvious to you by the end of the story.

I'm thinking about abandoning mowing my lawn and maintaining the landscaping but eventually it would get overgrown and abandoned cars, railroad tracks, stray dogs, and drifters would appear and I'm certain Tom Waits and Harry Dean Stanton would be involved somehow.
