The Unpredictions

We are into the white-knuckle phase of football for CFL coaches (those who are still standing). Sunday will see both the Eastern and Western Finals, deciding which teams will meet in the Grey Cup. Sports prognosticators (don't you love that word?) have made their informed predictions, but none will issue here, for fear of jinxing the teams.

And in the Anglican Diocese of New Westminster, a bishop is to be elected November 30. We have made our private guess on the voting, but won't reveal it. The last time we made some cautious public comment on the probable outcome of an electoral synod, a peace-loving priest, known for his warm, pastoral care, offered to punch our lights out.

So looking forward to action on the gridiron and in the pews, but no predictions. (Maybe the odd private wager.)
