Just send me a cheque. Or an e-transfer. Forget bitcoins

posted in humour |

Hard to keep track of everything, but someone has to do it: the first case of the Omicron variant has been detected in a nose swab. That’s not good news, but sometimes we  are better off being aware. I will remain leery of any nostrils that get too close. The lapse of time between the first reports, anywhere, and now show that we might live on an island, but the rest of the world is close by. Personally, I blame the bridge.

With the quality of our internet stream, listening to a broadcast from Health Central is enough to give one pause (yes, that’s what happens). I could catch the virus before the word is heard. Not good.

The federal government has allocated “millions in new spending”. Does that mean I can expect a cheque in the mail? Got nothing from the previous dollar dumps. Not even a tee shirt.I accept that as a sign that I’m still living… within my means. No, I don’t want anything more from the government right now. Already got a tzx bill earlier in the year. Although, if the munificence is  generalized, I could use that file being marked “paid in full”. Just a thought.

Hold on; I understood millions, but the correct modifier is billions. Now I want in on the “seasonal greeting”.  Send cash, or a cheque. Forget that bitcoin foolishness, because the hackers will just find a way to siphon off the value and leave me with some empty e-wallets. My current folding nylon envelope is sufficient for my single tenspot. And a coin for a payphone (do they still exist, outside of an airport?)
