happy birthday Canada!

anyone know, when did they start shooting the fireworks off from Kinsmen and not Shaw? it's funny what happens when you're away during the summers...

Okay I'm going down to Kinsmen pretty soon. I should be down there at around 10. So if any of you are still around, which I suspect is no one since I wasn't contacted in anyway... whats the point, I'm only documenting where I'm going to go just in case I die the authorities will have a good idea where to look for my body. I've told my parents to read this board if I don't return home at a certain time.

Whoops! I can't believe no one has posted this already.

Happy Canada Day!

A liitle story if you will...

28 years ago my dad came over with his brother and settled in a small town called Biggar in Saskatchewan. He started in the basement of someones house with no heating in a space a little bigger then my bedroom. He only had $400 in his pocket and a small suitcase full of summer clothes. No winter clothes. It was a tough start. Now after all these years my dad owns his own buisness and lives in a large house. He also has a ungrateful, spoiled son who has too much money and time, and apparently he doesn't know what to do with it. To say the least my dad is very grateful that the country of Canada took him in and made him a citizen. He doesn't regret it one bit that he moved here. He is also grateful that this country gave his children more opprutunity then he originally had. I think this is a little something to think about today.

Apparently most of the people here are too partied out to do anything on saturday. I just said 10:30 PM so they could feel that if they couldn't make it by a certain time they wouldn't feel guilty for not showing. Not trying to make them feel guilty right now or anything, I know most people have lives. Like I stated before I'll be staring up at the sky alone.

Albert, all I'm going to say is that 10:30 is way too late to meet up with people and decide on a destination... if you want anything more than just to stand in a crowd and stare at the fireworks as they come up. I'm meeting my lab friends at 8 so we can get a good spot and play some frisbee before the show really starts. We're probably heading down to the Kinsmen area to see the waterfall and fireworks. Maybe I'll see y'all down there.

Huh.. I guess thats why world militaries are looking at octopus skin cells and such. Nature sure is ahead of anything we can currently do. But when we catch up you better watch out.

I thought this video was fuckin fake, but after doing some research on it, turns out it's REAL:



That is fuckin FUCKED! That's like the PERFECT fuckin camoflauge! Not even chameleon's got shit on that bastard. gawd-dang.

Thanks, Jess. Now I can begin work on the arduous process of fixing things for IE7. w00t.

Roloson re-signs. The page I read this on linked to RDS (TSN's french sister station). I love the translation provided by Google:

Roloson, 36 years, led Oilers to the finale of the Stnaley cut after being acquired of Wild of Minnesota at the time of the deadline of the transactions. Before woundbeing wounded at the time of the first match of the finale, Roloson presented a card of 12-5 with an average of allocated goals of 2,32 and one percentage of stops of, 927.

Paras - I could login without the remember me click. Thought you might want to know

Albert - I'd join you but I'm going to Calgary to see my Gramma (she always whines about how the younger people go off to BBQs and she always spends Canada Day alone).

Dan's skipping town, so he's gotta leave the band.

Hey, isn't that tree-background in the Our Mercury picture from the back wall at Halo? I think it is...
