Not A Newspaper Columnist

When I say "Not a Newspaper Columnist" I'm not referring to the guy in this photo though he may not be a columnist anymore. He used to be the Calgary Sun's Page 6 columnist. Jim Davies is his name.

When I lived in Calgary in the 1980s I met him and if he's still alive today, I'm sure still is)a very nice guy. He went out of his way to help me giving me advice in regards to writing. Since reading his Page 6 columns religiously(the best Page 6 columnist out of all the Sun papers as far as I'm concerned--and yes I admit I'm biased saying that), I always wanted to be a columnist as Mr. Davies was. Occasionally he'd focus on one topic but I liked besides being helpful, and a genuine good guy, in his columns he'd talk about different things. All unrelated to each other. So since there's no way I'll be able to catch up writing everything I want in a separate post, I decided from time to time I will do just that. As Mr. Davies used to. Write on different things in one column(okay this isn't a newspaper but pretend it is--just humour me will you? And pretend this is a newspaper column):

TTC GETTING RID OF TICKETS: The people making decisions at the top of TTC(Toronto Transit Commission)sure aren't smart. Due to a rise in counterfeit tickets the TTC has decided later this year passengers will only be able to pay a fare with cash or tokens. What? You mean the TTC has never received a counterfeit token or a counterfeit bill?
