The strange case of the anomalous artifact that fell from the sky
A chance discovery in a Sooke parking lot led Daniel Marshall to do some archaeological sleuthing.
by Daniel Marshall: A few months ago, I went to visit a friend who lives out past Sooke, on the west coast of Vancouver Island, who had made a most mysterious archeological find. Traveling into Sooke one day (named after the T’Souk-e people), he parked his car outside an office, opened his car door, and immediately heard an object hit the ground from the sky. Stepping out of the vehicle, he cast his eyes about to discover that a seagull had dropped something from the air – and was now about to retrieve it. At first, my friend thought it a piece of plastic, and thought it best to liberate the object; perhaps the bird thought it a nut to be cracked, or a shellfish to be opened? To my friend’s surprise, it turned out to be some sort of arrowhead. He asked whether I could assist in identifying it. I took a few snaps on my phone, and borrowed it to conduct further investigations.

WILL THE CRAZY LEFT RE-ELECT TRUMP?
Donald Trump is a lucky man. First he got to run for president against an almost unbelievably bad candidate, Hillary Clinton, who couldn’t win despite having the FBI and CIA laboring on her behalf. Now it appears that he will run for re-election against the nominee of a party wholly in thrall to its most extreme and juvenile elements.

No astroturf in anti-tax initiative’s grass roots
I-1648 has no paid signature gatherers. No paid staff. No millions in out-of-state money buying an astroturf campaign. Neither Eyman nor Condotta could recall the last time a 100% citizen driven initiative made it onto the ballot.
