We're going to run out of oil one of these days, trumpet the headlines, Not to mention gas, coal and practically everything else that provides heat. I have visions of self, ten. years from now, sitting in front of the fireplace, feeding the last bit of .the grand piano into it, turning to the old lady and asking, "What now, baby? Go fetch the dyanide pills." ' ' Various ministers of health tell me menacingly that if I keep on smoking, I'm going to die a horrible death; if I don't give up the drink, I'll lose so many brain cells a day that. there'll be nothing but a pack of putty behind my eyebrows. Economists claim that if 1 don't save some money for my old age, I'll wind up eating tinned dog food. Other economists inform that if I do save some money for my old age, inflation will erode it to the point where I won't even be able to afford. dog food. , From one of the revenue department's lackeys comes a stern Ming that if I 7a don't produce within 15 days some abstruse document wh'ch I already sent them two y ears ago, something mysterious and dreadful will happen. They will "make an adjustment". I wonder which part of me they will adjust, and how painful it will be. My nose could use some straightening. „." = , if Quebec separates; according to the pundits all kinds of ghastly things will 'happen: my Bell bill will rise, along with my blood pressure; my arthritis will soar to new heights; I'll have trouble raising a few billion 'next time I try to float a bond issue in the States; my wife 'will probably leave me, because 1 spent, the, first two years of • my life in Quebecs.I'll have to deal in funny money, with Saint Rene's picture on it; my roof will catch fire because of nationalized asbestos; and there won't be any French on the back of my cereal box. A fate worse than death. Unemployment is rising, and I am .assured that nobody is going:to. hire an old, lazy, highly-trained guy like me when there are all th ose young, lazy, highly-trained people around. They tell me that when the anti-inflation controls come off, there's going to be such an almighty; all -Canadian grab for the buck 'that even GOd is:going to wake tip, grumbling, and wondering what's going on down there. And I'll be' left in the lurch, because teachers, on the whOle, will' let themselves be dumped on rither-thanfight in the streets and be thrown, in the paddy wagon. . Even worse• things are • threatened,; George Chtivalo, . Canadian, heavy-weight • champ, having disposed at one sitting of a fat turkey called Pretty Boy Feldstein, might .decide to start a comeback and demand a rematch with Muhammad Ali (at the age of 40) And speaking of turkeys, I have another fear. Toronto, with one of the worst football teams in Canada, and an equally inept hockey team, has now -acquired a major league baseball team. It will inevitably be "promising," "threatening," and "scrappy" for the first 10 years. Alter that, when it soars from last place in the league to second-last, it will instantly become the. "pennant-bound Toronto Bluejays.." So' much for sports. fears. Advertisements constantly frighten me. They tell me I have dry skin, hem,morhoids, falling hair, crumbling teeth, bad breath, and high armpits. They suggest -I am stupid if I don't rush right out, buy a lottery ticket, and become an instant millionaire. And just the other day I read in the paper that the South African doctor who started the, heart transplant game is prepared to, use baboon hearts, if there are no human ones available. No thanks,- doc,-Your can give me the heart of a pig or a chicken. Either would suit my personality. But have you ever seen a baboon from the rear? Who wants a great, flaming, orange bum? Newspapers tell me that the Canadian farmer is going down' the drain. I go out for a quart of milk and it's gone up a nickel since yesterday. Some drain. Everybody is talking about forthcoming elections. This scares me Joo. I can't stand • the politicians we have 'now. Why replace them with losers? Well, today I decided that I've had -enough. I'm sick of being frightened half 'to death . If the human race, at least in the Northern Hemisphere, is going 'to perish for lack of heating, I'll move south. I'm • going to go on smoking, and will donate my lungs to a chef who will write a cookbook specializing in,,smoked lungs on toast, with' truffles. Maybe I'll get senile . from drink, but it's a lot more fun tha n just getting senile. If I'm going to die, why worry about my old age? take a steak now ,and let the dog food look after itself: 4 Let the feds throw me' in jail over my income tax. I'd enjoy eating at somebody else's expense for a...change. And you get weekend •-leave, -anyway,' • If Quebec separates, I'll rip out .the phone, which I'd love to do, and stop floating those billion-dollar loans, which' I seldom do anyway.
