To John and Diane:  Thanks so much for the visit. It sure makes me keep looking forward, though I talk a lot about the past! ...9/23/2023

What will I do when you're gone?
Who's gonna tell me the truth?
Who's gonna finish the stories I start
The way you always do?
When somebody knocks at the door
Someone new walks in
I will smile and shake their hands
But you can't make old friends

"Life is never dull when you live it".  George William Smith, September 15, 2023

Actuarial Tables give you the rate of death from ALL causes.  OneAmerica have kept them since at least 1877.  When Covid vaccines became available, the rate of death rose by 40% from pre-pandemic levels.

OneAmerica is a $100 billion insurance company that has had its headquarters in Indianapolis since 1877. The company has approximately 2,400 employees and sells life insurance, including group life insurance to employers in the state.
Davison said the increase in deaths represents “huge, huge numbers,” and that’s it’s not elderly people who are dying, but “primarily working-age people 18 to 64” who are the employees of companies that have group life insurance plans through OneAmerica.  Read the article linked here, which shows that the deaths were not caused by Covid-19, but the vaccines sold as the cure.  Cause deaths, then sell vaccines to cure, but causes more deaths and more vaccines.
“Just to give you an idea of how bad that is, a three-sigma or a one-in-200-year catastrophe would be 10% increase over pre-pandemic,” he said. “So 40% is just unheard of.””

If the COVID vaccine really worked to protect you from death, how is it possible that nobody has ever measured how long it takes before you achieve peak protection? Could it be because it doesn’t provide any protection at all? Is that the reason nobody can measure it?  Steve Kirsch

Science has reversed itself.  Recent results now show Oils derived from animals (butter, lard, etc.) is actually far better than Vegetable Oils.  When man, believing that vegetable oils were more healthy than oils derived from animals the switch to vegetable oils over 100 years ago and especially in the 1950's caused rates of heart attacks and cancer to skyrocket.

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing.  The worst thing you can do is nothing.

…Theodore Roosevelt

 

When my dad (1903-1998) was really happy, he would always say, "Hur-rah!" (emphasis of first syllable)
From his university days, he loved to say, "Zis, Boom, Bah!  Rah, Rah, Rah!" while watching his favorite sporting events.

My Mom was a redhead.  When she got really mad, her face turned beet red.  I quickly learned her face was a "STOP" sign!

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

My dad always said, "Look for the good in people.  Because if you start looking for the bad, you'll spend the rest of your life finding it." 
He lived his life always looking for good in people and finding it.

The Western Canadian Championship Baseball Team of 1926.  My father, George Rayburn Johnson Smith is 4th from the left.  Their pitcher, Frank P. Minckler, is 7th from the left.  My dad played 2nd / SS/ Outfield. Note: there will only ten players on the rooster and that Minckler pitched every game in the season and playoffs.  Minckler was 42 years old at the time. Mink is famous for beating the Chicago White Sox 2-0 and 1-0 in a double header.  The photo was taken in the Abbottsford Baseball Stadium after winning the Championship.

How I got this photo is an interesting story.  The short version was that mom and dad were traveling up to see me in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.  This time they drove first to New Westminster, BC to visit his sister (Abby) and husband (Merv), then east across British Columbia to Edmonton.  They stopped for lunch at a restaurant that was filled with photos of famous athletes who had once ate there and whom had autographed their photos.  While they were eating the manager came over to their table and started chatting with my dad.  In the conversation dad (then 83) mentioned that he played Semi-Professional baseball with the Abbottsford Team and they had won the Championship in 1926.  He then said, "I have something you might like."  He and dad went over to the walls that were filled with photos.  On one of the walls was the picture I posted above.  For quite awhile, dad just wanted the picture to stay where it was.  That is until the manager said, "Didn't you say you were traveling to Alberta to see your son?"  Dad said, "Yes".   "Well then, maybe your son might like it to see what you looked like in the prime of your youth."   Ever since then it is one of my most cherished treasures in my house and proudly displayed next to photos of me in my youth.

1985 Photo at Aunt Della's with Dad and Mom celebrating my 3 World Master Gold Medals in the 400m, 400mH and 800m in the Rome World Championships. 

I was selected '1985 World Outstanding Master Male Athlete from ages 40-44'

DadGeorgeMom1985 

My Rome times were as follows:

400m: 49.95, which is still a Canadian record. 400m Hurdles: 56.74, 800m: 1:56.92.  
I still hold the Canadian Outdoor Records from Age 35-49 in the 400m Hurdles. 

I am most proud of the range of my indoor records: from the 50m hurdles and 200m (Age 35-39), 300m (40-44), 400m and 600m (35-44), 800m (35-49) and 1000m and 1500m (35-39).


Rex Murphy: Jordan Peterson's foes need their heads examined. 

Rex Murphy is old school (tells the truth) and tells it straight!

What are the marks of the non-functional mind?  They are three.

...The inability to learn.

...The incapacity to take wisdom from past examples.

...To recommit at the cost of vast humiliation and public mockery, actions that infinitely extend the effect those actions were intended, with grim finality, to suppress.

 

Christmas 1990 from Ted Nugent, who has never changed his moral direction from what really matters.
