I have it diagnosed as Zuikophrenia... one of his other personalities....
that's it: he has a 2X, 3X, or 4X or higher multiplier in his mind... alter
egos are created to explain away, rationalize, justify continued collecting,
hoarding. He talks to them. They talk to him. Encourage.
As for the P*n*t*x gear, it's really OM, mislabled intentionally for
self-delusion, so he doesn't have to face the extent of his fall into
Zuikophrenia honestly. To us, he's lying. To himself, it's a normal,
healthy life.
Pretty soon, he'll start speaking Cajun, not Canuck.... sound kinda like his
Prime Minister with the funky crooked mouth....
Maybe we should just leave him be, and observe. After all he's a great role
model. He's getting away with it right under his wife's nose.... er, ah, I
mean, oh shoot! Busted!
