come on summer stop teasing me

today i am cold... hurry up summer...


i have a couple things brewing in the old gray matter box today so here we go......

first i guess i will talk about London police.....

last week the police were arresting someone in front of the high school down the street from my work.... when the students of said school ATTACKED the police .... now maybe attacked is a bit rash but from what i understand the students started it by taunting police and interfering in an arrest. when the fight started between one student and one cop it quickly turned into a riot (as much as any Canadian scuffle can be called a riot i guess).....
worse then this the next day the students protested the police for assaulting the students them selves.... that's right a bunch of students attacked cops and then cried when the police fought back.

it doesn't matter if the person punching a cop is 34 or 16 the police must be aloud to defend themselves. no one was hurt in this fight and the students are in the wrong.... mostly

i guess the cop pushed the student first.... now i know how annoying high school students can be but we musent shove them.... least that is what my lawyer tells me.... lousy kids........ where was i ... oh yeah cop should not of pushed the kid but now matter what you don't hit a cop, they are under appreciated enough with out getting punched in the face by stoner teens..... if you see a cop arresting someone... let them do it ok they probably have a good reason.

then just yesterday London police spent hours dealing with an armed hostage situation (also not far from my work.... i work in a shitty part of town.....)

they managed to arrest the suspect and free all hostages with out injury ... good going boys



ok now something WAY less serious....

FUCKING WOW (and i mean wow as in world of warcraft)

i have stayed away from it as i am poor and monthly fees are stupid... and i hear it is highly addicting.... i am also weak :(

but i noticed that you can download a free 10 day trial so i figured what the heck give it a try.... apparently today they are shutting the whole damn game down today so i guess i get a 9 day trial.. freakin jip! i got it today because it is my day off and i did all my cleaning right away and i wanted to relax a little .... i normally don't have time to play games anyway ...... so of my 10 day trial today was the only day of it i could even guarantee i could play it at all...... hopefully i will get to try it but if not.... DAMN YOU BLIZZARD!!!!!!!!

fair well humble healers

last night was the last episode of er. i am not a huge fan of the show but my wife watches it regularly and thus i had an interest.

i was a little lost as i haven't seen any of this season and only part of last but the general idea came through.

i enjoyed the passable parallel they drew to the aids victim who was diagnosed with cancer. he didn't want chemo because he had a good long life, longer then he may of been meant to. 15 years is longer than 95% of tv shows. so i don't know if they mean to say this but it is what i got from it.

they went out on there own terms and the end scene was perfect. all the doctors doing what they do best saving lives ... congrats to all the cast and crew of er.

and to Michael Crichton... yes the guy who wrote Jurassic park, he also created er... good on ya

creepy people

the Duggars









ok maybe i should go into more detail there from the show 18(17) kids and counting.

i watched there show last night with my wife and they are creepy, i would never tell anyone how to live and the fact that everyone in there family seems happy makes it a whole lot better.

but it was the episode where there 20 year old son gets married.

he and his bride to be live such strict religious lives they they have never kissed or even been alone just the two of them.

add that to the fact that there wedding had no booze and no dancing.

my biggest problem is that apparently when they get married the man is totally in charge

i feel bad that i disagree with there way of life, that is normally not like me but i can't help but disagree.

i am worried about people forming a lasting relationship with out ever spending alone time together, with out getting to know who they are marrying.

even though i don't agree with they way they live i do wish them well
