Scientific Journal of a Renowned Anthropologist

9:29 AM - I arrive at Tim Hortons for my 12 o'clock shift

9:30 AM - I discover the civilization has advanced since my last observation. Wireless internet is now available. What could this mean to the traditional northern culture that resists such advances as the "box store"? Could this mean the breakdown of all life as they know it?

9:31 AM - Once I have recovered my composure at this discovery, I check my email and observe that I am not the only one with wireless high-speed at my workplace. Apparently this is a common phenomenon (note: which needs to be further investigated, once I receive the government grant).

9:45 AM - I begin to wonder if this is what it feels like to be a retired person. Although the stereotypical RP would not be surfing on their brand shiny new MacBook.

10:15 AM - I am visited by my friend Shellie the Baker (last name withheld for scientifical reasons). She is a curious creature, very friendly toward humans. Tame but not to be taken lightly or trifled with.

10:16 AM - Our conversation is interrupted by the arrival of an endangered species: The Mulleted Trucker. His camouflage proved too effect for me to snap a photo right away. I did manage one once he had retreated to his cave, but the detail is very minimal.

10:18 AM - Shellie leaves and I am left alone again with my anthropological scientific hypothosizations. Will the Mulleted Trucker ever realized his need to adapt to avoid extinction? Only time will tell.

A Long Time

Well, it has been a long time since I posted on here. Duh, you say. Well Trisha if you still read this thanks cause you are probably the only one.

I've be debating whether I should take the YWAM logo off here. I haven't really been with them in a year, but its sort of final to take it off so I won't for now. We'll see.

I'm not exactly sure what this year will bring for me. I'm still working at Tim Hortons (got a Christmas pin yay, my collar will look official now). It's still fun. This January I think I might take some correspondence courses from a Bible college. It all depends though.

So really this update has no solid information. Just speculation. It's kind of like watching FOX News or reading the Toronto Sun.

Would You Rathers (late night chocolate induced antics)

By Steph Kerr (typed by emily duffield)


Would you rather be pecked to death by a chickadee or suffocated with the slime of a snail?

Would you rather have no hair at all anywhere or have toe nails grow out of your head?

Would you rather be covered head to toe in boils or permanent cream cheese? (Herb and Garlic)

Would you rather be stuck to a Muskoka chair for the rest of your life or every time you sit down its always a cold concrete surface?

Would you rather sweat fish scales or cry mustard?

Would you rather eat a light-bulb or eat a giant clump of hair from the drain?

Would you rather be stuck in a car with Lindsay Lohan or Kelly from Regis and Kelly?

Would you rather have Thai food come out your nose or spend eternity only eating snails?

Would you rather be stuck in a barrel (about to go over Niagra Falls) or swing from vine into a pond of hungry hippos?

Would you rather be forced to send all your money to Oprah or have to be neighbors with Micheal Jackson?

Would you rather eat the computer you are reading this on or have it eat you?

Would you rather be told that you talk about your crush in your sleep or be told that you fart in your sleep?

Would you rather laugh like a hienna or Tickle-Me-Elmo?

Would you rather slide down a slide covered in fiber glass insulation or do the worm all the way to work (everyday of the week)?

Would you rather be a judge on "So you think you can dance?" or Clay Aiken?

Would you rather punch Sally Jessie Raphael or Dr. Phil?

Would you rather be questioned by Jack Bauer in a bad mood or go on a speed date with Chuck Norris?

Would you rather have no thumbs or a three inch outtie belly button?

Would you rather be forced to stick your fingers in a power outlet or read this over again?

Adventures in Manitoba

Hey Everyone. I am in Winnipeg right now, cooking food for people who don't have enough. It's pretty cool. I like it.
Right now we are just having some time for reading and relaxing. Tonight Matt and Kristie (our hosts) are going out for Matt's Birthday. We are taking care of the kids (doing crafts with them and then watching a movie).
When I get home I'll put up photos and explain more about each ministry. We fly home on Friday at 3pm EST with WestJet.
Thanks for your prayers!
