Roy to the World… Odin has come. Let Earth receive her King. Happy Holidays! It’s the end of December and it’s Blog Post #126. Xmas trees and Xmas lights have been up for a solid two months now. Only two and half months more to go.

Thank you to everyone who sent me messages after the big announcement in Blog Post 125. It was nice to hear so many people saying they’re going to miss the blog and that it actually did mean something to them. Much appreciated.

What’s Next?

To review, my last Blog Post will be in May as I will put Write or Wroy to bed after a 10 year run. I don’t know what’s next. I’m not finished with writing. Maybe I’ll start a travel blog, a travel joke blog, or an anti- A.I. Blog where I explain to A.I. overlords what writer’s block is. They have no idea.

The Religion Thing

Maybe I’ll start a blog about the downfalls of religion, how it’s not real, and how we’re just some two legged creatures wandering around on a tiny rock that is hurdling through space. The three followers I get from doing that could be worth it.

I’ve actually been re-thinking my atheism lately. Am I truly an atheist? Am I more of an agnostic; believing that there’s more to this life than what can be seen, observed, or proven? I’m not sure. I don’t know… and neither do you.

To continue with the religious fun… I was doing my usual ‘wandering the earth’ earlier this year when I came across this amazing building. It brought a smile to this atheist’s agnostic’s face. Look at the address and raise some hell.

The New Year

While I don’t have much in the way of new year’s resolutions, there are quite a few plans in the works. My wife and I are looking at going to Spain and Portugal in May. The World Cup of soccer will have games in June just minutes from where I live in Vancouver. I will be getting tickets in exchange for my kidney. We have also been looking at exploring more of Canada this summer including Halifax and Toronto. It’s going to be a busy year.

Robot Nurses are coming to take our jobs.

Robot nurses? There’s no way that robot nurses are going to put up with these working conditions. They’ll take one look at the workload and transition to robot bankers or robot politicians.

The Future of Air Travel

Two separate sole survivors of plane crashes revealed that they sat in seat 11A. Last time I took a flight, I was in seat 11A – 6 and my wife was in 11A – 7. Everyone was seated in 11A. #scienceatwork

Words of Wisdom

1. Celebrate.

Celebrate the holidays. Celebrate a new year. Celebrate life. Even celebrate the birth of a fictional child in a barn, who became a magician, a talented speaker, and a cult leader who would become the most famous human to ever allegedly walk on this planet.

2. Travel.

A study says people need at least 7 trips a year to stay stress free. Makes sense… because trips are never stressful.

3. Love your life.

”Take photos. Tell people you love them. Do things that are scary. Talk to random strangers.”

If I talk to random strangers, there’s a good chance I’m not going to love my life anymore.

Thank you for reading the last blog post of 2025. All the best in the year to come. Happy 2026! It’s now time for the ending joke. Enjoy.

My wife works at Vancouver’s Rogers Arena where she is catering server for concerts, sports, and special events.

This year I asked her, “The concert tonight is for the who?”

“Exactly”

“Exactly? I haven’t heard of them. What kind of music do they play?”

”No no. It’s The Who.”

”Oh ok. The Who… my mistake…but I won’t be fooled again!”
