Quicksilver Boomerang!! (Tumbler Ridge Mass Shooting Part 3)

Kylie May Smith 

Continuing on from my previous post, and leaving no stone unturned, I noted Kylie’s sweat shirt that has the word “Quicksilver” on it.  This no doubt has cryptic meaning that we need to investigate.  Before venturing in that direction, I’d like to bring your attention to the following recent Notable Deaths added to Wikipedia’s Deaths in 2026 site yesterday: 

• Roy Leon Face (February 20, 1928 – Feb 12, 2026)baseball player (Pittsburgh Pirates).
• Lionel Fogarty (1958 – 12 February 2026) 68, indigenous poet, political activist.

First of all, they’re listed one right after the other, AND they both have  “lion” in their names, which is meaningful given the “ROAR” in the Shooters surname re “Rootselaar” when applying the newly formed “First and Last 2 Letters in Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster.   Also, note the other words found in their surnames by applying the “Word in Name” pattern cluster , re : “face ace” and “fog art”. 

 

 Lets now take a moment to investigate the origin of the name Kylie: 

Kylie (name) : It might be derived from the Aboriginal Australian Noongar word kiley, meaning 'curved, returning stick, boomerang'.

Also mentioned on the Kylie(name) site, is:  

Australian novelist Kylie Tennant (1912-1988) was an early bearer of the name.

Note the surname Tennant is also an addition to the First and Last 2 Letters in Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster , and so making “tent”.  The “boomerang” stood out because I recollect mentioning boomerang in a recent post.  So using this blogs search box I discovered that of the thousands upon thousands of posts in this blog, only one mentions the word boomerang, … and it was meaningful enough that I included it in the post title, note these 3 excerpts from my December 1, 2025 post, entitled,  Twin Ass Cheeks And Boomerang: 

Continuing on from my previous post that involved a recent notable death re: 

Sir Andreas Whittam Smith, 88, British financial journalist, co-founder of The Independent  

• Sir Andreas Whittam Smith (13 June 1937 – 29 November 2025)

                          __________________________________________________  

 Note the following recent addition to Wikipedia’s Deaths in 2025 site: 

Judy Cheeks, 71, American singer ("Reach").^[7] (death announced November 30)

• Judy Cheeks (February 13, 1954 – November 2025)

                         ____________________________________________________

I researched a bit more and the origin of letter “c” is a curved throwing stick.  This reminds me of the boomerang and so I asked AI if there’s a relation, this is the response: 

Yes, the original shape that evolved into the letter 'C' is widely believed to have been named after a hunter's stick or a boomerang

                        ______________________________________________________ 

As you can see, boomerang is found in the 3rd excerpt above.  The second excerpt has Judy Cheeks February 13 birthday highlighted,… because it just happens to be TODAY, and so an addition to the “Timely” pattern cluster.  As for the first excerpt, we have the surname “Smith” cropping upp again!!  And note Andreas Smith’s birthday is also my own!!  And note that his middle name Whittam is an addition to the “First and Last 2 Letters in Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster, and so making “WHAM”!! 

As for Kylie’s sweatshirt that says “Quicksilver”, with a little research I came across the clothing company Quicksilver.  On investigating I discovered the name of the two founders: 

• Alan Green
• John Law

Note the cryptic “green law” in their surnames!!  Meaningful especially given the recent “Green Theme” and “Court… Law/Theme” pattern clusters.  So what would be the meaning behind the cryptic “green law”.  On googling, AI provides: 

Green Law, often termed environmental law, refers to the body of treaties, statutes, regulations, and policies designed to protect the natural environment and manage the human impact on ecosystems, resources, and pollution levels. It integrates ecological principles into legal systems to promote sustainability and, more recently, combats deceptive "greenwashing" claims.

The word quicksilver is a reference to Quicksilver (mercury), note from its wiki page: 

Like the English name quicksilver ('living-silver'), this name was due to mercury's liquid and shiny properties.

On investigating notable persons mentioned, I compiled the following:  

• Joseph Priestley (24 March 1733 – 6 February 1804).                                               (Priest)  *prey
• Heike Kamerlingh Onnes (21 September 1853 – 21 February 1926)                                       *ones
• Abu 'l-Jaysh Khumārawayh ibn Aḥmad ibn Ṭūlūn (864 – 18 Jan 896)         (jay mar way mad)
• Hamilton Young Castner (September 11, 1858 – October 11, 1899)             (ham ton young cast)
• Carl Kellner (1 September 1851 – June 7, 1905).                                                            (Car, call)
• Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (24 May 1686 – 16 September 1736)                                            (gab) 
• Alexander "Sandy" Calder (July 22, 1898 – November 11, 1976)               (ale, sand, and, caller)

On perusing the names, I discovered two who are additions to the new “First and Last 2 Letters in Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster, where Priestly provides us with *prey, and Onnes with *ones.  .. so, “prey ones”.  When checking out the dates, I generally choose the cluster that stands out the most.  In this case I noted a “September 1, September 11, September 21” pattern cluster … each being 10 days apart … and so ending in “1”… so *ones becomes much more meaningful!! The other words in their names (see list at far right) are derived by applying various other clusters ie: “Word in Name” pattern cluster and the “Exchange Letter in Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster . 

Also, Quicksilver is another addition to the  “First and Last 2 Letters in Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster, and so providing us with the old word “quer”, note the following etymology: 

quirk (n.), 1560s, "a quibble, an artful evasion," a word of unknown origin, perhaps connected to German quer (see queer (adj.))

OKAY…, so this does tie in to the fact that Jesse Rootselaar is trans  and so related to queer via the LGBTQ+ community. 

Note the etymology of queer: 

 queer (adj.) c. 1500, "strange, peculiar, odd, eccentric," from Scottish, perhaps from Low German (Brunswick dialect) queer "oblique, off-center," which is related to German quer "oblique, perverse, odd," from Old High German twerh "oblique" (from PIE root *terkw- "to twist")

On visiting the Tumbler Ridge Shooting wikipedia page, I see that we now know the birthday of the shooter, Jesse Van Rootselaar— August 4, 2007.   So he was a Leo… yet another LION  *ROAR!!  

Note the following info on another victim: 

Jennifer Strang, identified by police using her legal name, Jennifer Jacobs, was the mother of the shooter. Originally from Lawn, N.L., Strang, 39, was found dead in the family home along with her 11-year-old son.

Her legal surname, Jacob’s, is an addition to the “First and Last 2 Letters of Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster, and so making “jabs”. 

jab(v.)

1813, "to thrust or strike with a point," a Scottish variant of job "to strike, pierce, thrust," from Middle English jobben "to jab, thrust, peck"
