“Equity sends questions to law, law sends questions back to equity: law finds it can’t do this, equity finds it can’t do that: neither can so much as say it can’t do anything, without this solicitor instructing and this counsel appearing for A, and that solicitor instructing and that counsel appearing for B; and soContinue reading “Passage of the Day: Charles Dickens “Bleak House”: A Sarcastic Poke at the Law”

“Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 77 “Jiber Fabricates and Transforms into René Hecklevesque”
The Jiber continued, “The Brits arrived in Quebec after the French and after a long struggle culminating in the Battle of the Plains of Brahms defeated the French. But they were calculatingly polite letting the French retain their language, schools and religion. The Brits should have crushed them like flies and wiped them out butContinue reading ““Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 77 “Jiber Fabricates and Transforms into René Hecklevesque””
“Building A Life Worth Living: A Memoir Marsha M. Linehan”; Trying to Control a Suicidal Person
“Later, working as a therapist, I fell into the same trap. When you become afraid that a client may commit suicide, you become anxious, and as your anxiety increases, your urge to control the client increases, too. So for awhile, my experience with clients was the same one the Institute had with me. I eventuallyContinue reading ““Building A Life Worth Living: A Memoir Marsha M.

“Mutantism on the March”: Chapter 76 “The Jiber’s Infiltration Plans”
Jiber thought it was time to give his crew a talk and hand out some orders. He spoke to them under a grove of maple trees in a deserted part of the Montreal suburb Hudson. “Comrades. It is apparent that if one day we are to conquer Zortixia we require an army. We are awareContinue reading ““Mutantism on the March”: Chapter 76 “The Jiber’s Infiltration Plans””
“Building a Life Worth Living: A Memoir by Marsha M. Linehan”: An Introduction to Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
“Two things make DBT unique. The first is the dynamic balance between acceptance of oneself and one’s situation in life, on the one hand and embracing change on the other. (That is what “dialectics” means-the balance of opposites and the coming to a synthesis.). Traditional psychotherapy focuses primarily on helping people change their behaviours, replacingContinue reading ““Building a Life Worth Living: A Memoir by Marsha M.

“Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 76 “Why Don’t Those Idiots Simply Take Over Canada?”
According to the Jiber’s reading of the history of Quebec the British invaders failed to impose a strict conformity of the British Empire on the defeated French. A big mistake! Now the USA economically and socially was in command of Canada why not wipe it out as a country and make it part of theContinue reading ““Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 76 “Why Don’t Those Idiots Simply Take Over Canada?””
“Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 75 “Montreal in a Panic”
Montreal was in a turmoil if not in a panic. Wild rumours spread of space creatures on a rampage. It had started at Expo 67 and spread to McSwill University where the “invaders” had attempted to initiate a “civil war”. The Quebec government declared a provincial state of emergency and school and business establishments wereContinue reading ““Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 75 “Montreal in a Panic””
“Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 74 “Jiber Causes Havoc at McSwill University”
Jiber ordered a quick retreat from Expo 67 and they landed on a green field surrounded by majestic buildings. A sign nearby said “McSwill University”. Soon students arrived for their morning classes but initially they showed little interest in the craft as the students in the Faculty of Engineering were always building strange contraptions, whenContinue reading ““Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 74 “Jiber Causes Havoc at McSwill University””
“Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 73 “Panic and Terror at Expo 67”
Lucien Loup awoke to the shrill bells of his Bestinghouse alarm in his suburban St. Laurent duplex in Montreal. He rolled over a little too far to turn off the alarm and crashed to the floor tangled in sweat-soaked sheets. He picked himself up and staggered to the shower to see if some cold waterContinue reading ““Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 73 “Panic and Terror at Expo 67””
