Hobo Unbound


Normally when I disconnect the chain that usually shackles my ankle to my computer desk and go out into the so-called real world I always have the feeling that people looking at me probably assume I’m some kind of homeless bum.

But this morning I got a shock.

This morning I was standing around in a medical building, flirting with the nurses, and one of the nurses I hadn’t yet gotten around to flirting with walked over and told me that while I was standing there first a senior citizen woman had approached her and pointed to me and asked if I was the new dentist on the second floor, and then a few moments later another senior citizen woman had approached her and pointed to me and asked if I was the new cardiac specialist on the ninth floor.

So I said to the nurses, “Well, there you go, see, if you go out to dinner with me you get all the benefits of looking like you’re out with a doctor but without the whole downside of, you know, actually having to go out with a doctor.”

I was just talking and I don’t know if there is a downside to going out with a doctor but all the nurses seemed to think that was pretty funny.

My takeaway was that apparently I look like a professional kind of guy to senior citizen women.

Hmm.

I still keep a piece of electrical tape over my webcam lens so the cool young women looking out can’t see me.

  2. Immigration on a whole is very beneficial to Canada and its residents. History tells repeatedly that it is human kind that loses its previleges. Immigration is good for Canada and its people in any way you consider but the undeue advantage taken by a few people in the name of refugee act bestowed by Canadian government is being highly misused. We have to wait and see how far Canada can allow people in the name of refugees. Of course, humanitarian concerns are to be given the highest priority for human kind’s development and survival but misuse of a syustm is highly deplorable. Let us all pray that the gates of immigration be not closed for all those good people and eligible aspirants just because of the refugees who infiltrate this country and can be a bigger and unsolvable problem. As of now Canada is large in heart and resources.
