The other Albert (Camus, for all you literary geeks) would have a field day!

Is this another start of a existentialist crisis?

Are any of you for "real"?

Are you for real?

Is that for real Ed?

See you folks Tuesday. And, for Monday, remember, "We must go forward, not backward, upward, not forward, and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom." Feel free to change governments whilst I'm gone.

Hello,

I booked crosshairs for 2pm Friday, so anyone who is interested in playing some games is welcome. Bunch of new stuff is out so i think it'll be fun as hell. So to anyone reading who enjoys computer games, come out to crosshairs tomorrow. Its on 112 st and 82 ave. I'll be in CAB if anybody wants to know what the hell is going on.

First things first, hell yeah.

Also, I think I'll skip over the juxtaposition of "lame" and "horse analogy" (although mentioning it doesn't help my quest to skip over it.) As for the substance, I agree, but we're all idealists. We seem to think just because he's running out of steam, he can be replaced. We're out of step with the rest of the province, who believe that, since there's no alternative, he's all we've got. It's funny, really, how this election mirrors the June one. Albertans couldn't believe the East elected Liberals, and the East felt they had no alternative but the Liberals. That and my vote won't matter anyway because I live in Riverbend. The civic election was so nice because I actually got to vote for the winning mayor. I miss that.

So I was looking at the BSE thing. There really seem to be two reactions. The "oh my god, that burger will kill me!... er, that is, it'll kill me in a different way than I thought", and the "problem? what problem? it's just alarmists. Yeah, that's the ticket." I mean, I love an article I read at Mad-Cow-Facts.com, where, upon discovering that BSE was covered up in France, they conclude that they should have more confidence in the US food supply. So much for my confidence in the objectivity of the Center for Global Food Issues (their name sounded so rational...)

Oh, yeah, and speaking of horses, don't forget Hartley's First Law:

You can lead a horse to water, but if you can get him to float on his back, you've got something.

good for TVOTR... I'm surprised they beat out the likes of Dizzee, Franz Ferdinand and The Streets, but no doubt they're entirely deserving of the award.
