A beautiful sunday in Toronto
Today is a beautiful day. I'm gonna go biking again. so far I've biked around 110+ km (if my calculations are correct) I think from my house to the end of commissioners island and back is around 35 km.
I've been meaning to comment on the National Post's Self congratulationary ad campaign that's going on these days. I suppose that is in response to a rash of "Fascist" graffiti vandalizing the National Post newspaper vending boxes in the GTA lately. Phew. that was a really awkward sentence, but I'm not going to go back and fix the grammar. Try to make sense of it if you can. But I only kid. I don't think its cuz of the kids writing "fascist" on NP boxes, but its because of loss of readership due to the extreme stance that National Post has been taking.
Then you get these N.Post employees singing the praises of National Post. My contention is; Why can't National Post find a set of dedicated users who can say these nice things about the National Post? I find it a bit tackey that the paid employees of an organization are acting as if the company is the best thing since the sliced bread..
There is this thing on the tube about "Jarhead". The author, a marine had some interesting things to say. He still wants to go back and kill. He never did kill during the last gulf war. And he admitted that he pee'd in his pants the first time the shells started coming in.
I guess most everyone would, knowing that the next piece of metal flying thru the air at crush-skull speeds could spell the end of the thing that you call yourself!
ola!
