I feel compelled to share this story with you. When a client, whom I hardly know, and who, I have the feeling is a bit "sketchy", started to tell me about disaster coming to our city - I had to bite my tongue. I really just wanted to tell him that he was a loony toon. But hey, you never know. He seems to be quite a successful businessman, speaks many languages...So, what if I do just shrug it off, keep it to myself and then suddenly, what he told me would happen, did? Ahh, now you get it and so this is why I'm writing this. Apparently, at the Petro Canada station on Adelaide and Jarvis, there some new artwork. REVOLUTION in huge letters is drawn on one of the white fences that surrounds the station. And as my client mentioned, this word was what was written at the beginning of "Les Miserables"...and look what happened there. He had also witnessed the riots in L.A. years ago. He said that the feeling he felt there 2-3 weeks before the rioting, is exactly what he feels in Toronto today. He told me to prepare. He said, Remember the Black Out?, that was only 3 days, make sure you have enough bottled water and canned food in your house to last you 2 weeks". Maybe this has something to do with Gaza and the action starting up there. I don't know. But apparently, "it" will be coming to our city in 2-3 weeks time. He also mentioned that he has a generator with him, and that he can supply my business with power in case we lose it over that time. How generous of him, I guess. At least, I have a backup plan. So, part of me may be wanting to stock up on some extra water and canned tuna on my next grocery trip.
