Seventy Virgins Or A Cruise.

I wonder who else writes a Blog at 7 A.M?  And it is darn cold outside. -15C/5F. Windchill makes it -19C/-2 F.

And the Oscars are over. Oh darn! I missed it.

Another thing over is the Canada Games. I hardly noticed them. If I had not seem the section in the newspaper every day, I would not have known about them. Not a mention on TV, that I saw.

On Libya this morning, I saw a photo of open graves, and guys laying in them. It is supposed to show their willingess to die for their country. I wonder if they know that if you die, you actually do die. It's not like on TV. Maybe they are thinking about the seventy virgins. Don't they realize, after the first time, they are no longer virgins. Now they are wives. Cranky wives who have to share with seventy-nine other women.

Van Dyks's Blueberry Juice. There was an article yesterday and another article today. It appears there was an article in The New York Times and now the bottles are flying off the shelf. Seems everyone wants it now. My wife buys it and it cost $9.95. She thinks the price will probably go up now. The owner is eighty years old, so I suspect it will be bought out by some big company. Then they will screw up the recipe to make more profit. 

Saw an ad yestersay from LumberMart. If you buy all the stuff for a new kitchen, you get a free Caribbean Cruise. (I'm glad my computer can spell.) But the cruise is only for one person. So the thing is, you can enjoy the cruise, and your. wife can enjoy the new kitchen.

Euthenasia Again!

Temp is 0C/32F. Just looked at the weather map and there is a big storm coming. Rain for us, snow for everyone else. As far as I am concerned, winter can stop anytime now.

Today's newspaper is concerned with euthenasia. You know, letting your relatives do you in. It seems an elderly man confessed to killing his wife because she had cancer. She didn't know it was going to happen. He also said he did it by mixing the drugs she was already taking. He confessed because he felt guilty. Since she was already taking the drugs, it might be wishful thinking on his part. Maybe she just died of cancer.

The other article was about Latimer from Sask. who killed his twelve year old daughter because she had Cerebral Palsy. He ended up serving twelve years. Now he is the poster boy for euthenasia. My daughter is thirty-eight with C.P. and is worse off than his daughter was. If you preach that crap to me, you're talking to the wrong guy. I wonder if his daughter knew, sitting in the truck, that her father was murdering her?

Down in New Jersey, an airport security guy stole at least $30,000. from passengers during checks. I guess everyone was so concerned about their radar image, they forgot to keep an eye on their wallet.

The Canada Games are still going full bore. I like the speed skating. I find it amazing they can go so fast and hardly move their legs. I've skated and it is not as easy as they make it look. Everyone in Canada have skated, haven't they? Well, maybe not immigrants.

Oscars on TV Sunday. Hope there is something else on. Maybe the red carpet will have snow. San Francisco is getting snow on Saturday. They are all excited about it.

Charlie Sheen is ranting again. Not grateful for what he has. His show has also been cancelled, at least for the year. Doesn't bother me, never watched it anyway.
