Me: trying to explain the pending school strike action to my 6yo
6yo: Why don't they do a big rock, paper, scissors for it?

Wouldn't it be great if the world's conflicts could be solved so easily?

Today I called a coworker 'Tom' because they kept showing up in my space. They didn't get it.

Feb 14: @JustinTrudeau declares a state of emergency that will not continue one day more than necessary.
Feb 20: @fordnation declares the occupation ended.
Feb 21: parliament votes to extend the state of emergency.
We are now into day two of days more than necessary. #cdnpoli

Thank you to @OttawaPolice, @OPP_News, @rcmpgrcpolice and services from across Canada for your work in ending the illegal occupation in Ottawa. Your professionalism, patience and perseverance were critical in bringing it to an end.

Had to take my satirical car ad down because I was getting too many interested parties. Apparently honesty is key in these situations.

@JustinJDean I feel like we need a #prayforCanada movement. Things are getting wild up here.

The award for the most Canadian speech throughout this entire pandemic goes to @PremierScottMoe. No matter where you stand on the Covid front, promoting #unity and #respect is the way to go.

@111jameswilliam Read the job description and I feel like you'd be better suited with a butler, a housekeeper, and an assistant. You could still pay all three very well and be better served. But for $1M/year, I'd take that challenge.

@JustinJDean I think it was actually on order for Parliament Hill in Canada, but got shipped to the wrong address.

[Sam Vanderwood @SamVanderw]

@JustinJDean But do you accept Grimacecoin?

[Sam Vanderwood @SamVanderw]

@justinjdean My dad always said a job worth doing was worth doing well and if a job wasn't worth doing, do it well til you find one worth doing.

[Sam Vanderwood @SamVanderw]

@justinjdean I primarily work with teenagers, so I feel that, but I also believe that I have an obligation to invest in teaching them these things because I know they aren't learning it at school where you can now turn in a paper three months late and still get full marks for it

[Sam Vanderwood @SamVanderw]

@justinjdean They pullin' out all the stops on this one.

@aussiedave This breaks my heart. I'm thankful my church leaders prioritized connecting with people - we had all our leaders calling around to ask how people were doing, what we could pray for, and how we could practically serve them through this. If we had your contact info, you got a call

[Sam Vanderwood @SamVanderw]

@aussiedave A church that intentionally focused on community and discipleship for in-person gatherings and their online communities equally.
I like the thought that our church model needs to adapt, but I think the focus needs to be on discipleship and community, not musical worship.

[Sam Vanderwood @SamVanderw]

@justinjdean We made the decision to homeschool based on everything going on here in Canada. I was anti-homeschooling for a long time, but I think with the right curriculum and resources, it can be a good thing. My oldest is in kindergarten, so the jury is still out though.
