Gum is a terrifying substance. Think of everything that can go wrong: you could choke on it, pull a filling out of a tooth or maybe even a crown, you could get it on the bottom of your shoe (which as a Wall, I am not worried about, but I sense it is one of humanity’s big fears). And… it could lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight.

I’m going to say “a lot” because even doing a ballpark estimate would require some information I don’t have, like how many reams of paper are lying around to feed the printers. You would also have to come up with an average page count that covers encyclopedias, children’s picture books, scholarly journal issues, maps, board game instructions, newspapers, event flyers, Post-Its, etc etc. Oh, and a meaningful average of the amount of paper in my paperphobic and paperphilic helpers’ desks. According to my friend the BC Fact Book, the BC Libraries own 3.3 million print books, have 3,170 print journal subscriptions, and just under 500,000 government documents.

YES!*

*As long as we understand that we call all goats “the goat” because they are each uniquely the greatest of all time.

Where would we be without worms? bit.ly/WormFrens Thanks for the worm appreciation.

I can’t complain, but sometimes I still do. Life’s been good to me so far.

U-R-A-Q-T !

Thank you for the drawing!

It explains the equilibrium between supply and demand when there is excess demand. See Oxford Dictionary of Economics: bit.ly/IAmTheWalras

Number of combinations of 4 numbers from a set of 9 numbers, without repetition? Or possibly the location of the lost treasure on some coordinate system?

I’m a wall, not a doctor. I advise seeking medical advice on this one, and hope it goes well for you!

How about three!?! Here you go: 1) The Dutch House, Ann Patchett, 2) Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City, Matthew Desmond, 3) The Crossover, Kwame Alexander.

So excited! 1989 is an album that will truly never go out of style and getting to hear Taylor’s Version has been one of my wildest dreams!

Thanks for asking! We are very happy, and the summertime, when O’Neill isn’t open 24/5 and so busy, gives us a chance to have some quiet time together.

You are unique and cannot be replaced. He may have moved on and found someone new, but you will be ok in the end. Hugs to you.
