Red Burns RIIP and Maureen MacDonald's Red Burns

On perusing through the Deaths in 2013 site, I noted the following addition under August 23rd:
Red Burns, 88, Canadian academic.
There are a number of reasons why I chose Red Burns for this post.  First of all, there's the twin 88 which falls into the "Identical Number Sequence" pattern-cluster category.   Secondly, there her nickname "Red".  According to a New York Times article, she was born "Goldie" and later given the nickname because of her red hair.  If you go back through some of my post titles over the last few months you'll note that there's a bit of a colour theme occurring, and this certainly fits the bill.  Butt what really intrigues me is her married name, Burns... after all it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see how "red" and "burn" jive.

I consider her death to bee "timely", despite the fact that she had lived to old age it's likely that Red Burns died as part of an intricate plan to facilitate the inner twin world with "coming out" and "communicating" to us here in our outer world.

A couple of days before Red Burns passed away, a friend of mine had read a CBC article (here) that remarked about Maureen MacDonald, a political figure here in Halifax that we both know, who has become stricken with shingles.  It occurred to me that shingles is accompanied with a red/hot rash, and so I checked the net for any images and found one the one at right.  Her face is definitely red ... like a bad burn.

Now, I knew Maureen long before she became a politician, going way back back to a time when I was 30 years old, a member of the MUMS, an organization that I cofounded, and then we met again a few years later when we both served on the board of Bryony House, a transition shelter for abused women and their children.

My association with Maureen did nott end well.  At one point 8 Board Members (all from various minority groups, myself included) walked off the Bryony House Board due to Maureen's actions that thwarted visible minority board members in their bid to secure a staff position at Bryony House that included a visible minoritiy, because of the 11 full time staff at the time, none were from a visible minority group.  Things came to a head when Maureen turned down the minority members proposal to raise funds to cover the salary of a visible minority staff.

So now that you know my side of the story, you can only imagine how stunned I was on having read this excerpt from a news article re http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/story/2013/05/10/ns-percy-paris-resign-scuffle.html:
On Friday morning, Dexter announced former finance minister Graham Steele would return to cabinet as the minister of economic development and tourism. He gave Maureen MacDonald the African Nova Scotian affairs portfolio.
Okay... never mind Maureen's ill treatment toward the minority Bryony Board members, butt are there no African Nova Scotian's available to fill the position of Minister of African Nova Scotian affairs?! AND if nott, WHY?!

Okay, putting all angst aside, and knowing what I know today about the inner twin world's secret manipulation of people and events,  I believe that Maureen was influenced by her inner twin to do as she did, as simply part of the inner twin worlds strategy to "come out" and "communicate" to us at this point in time.  Following the same thread, I also believe that Maureen's shingles was also part of the overall plan... as was the recent timely death of Red Burns.

Now getting back to Maureen's shingles, this isn't the first time that the "rash" topic has cropped up lately, and in fact, I highly recommend that you read  my August 2nd post: Eileen Brennan RIIP: Justice Bryson and Beeing Frank (Here).
