An interesting, yet vexing, perplexing article I just read. What sayeth thou. Dead man charged for running faucet – Canada – Canoe.ca.

This is the 2011 fireworks display from London, UK. Spectacular. The Brits definitely did it right. I really wish I was there watching this. I would love to have posted the 2012 version, but am doing a scheduled post (Life has its own commitments), and really wanted to wish you all a Happy New…

Amazing video from a few months ago. I hadn’t seen it and figured others hadn’t either. The power is incredible. The guy who took this is one lucky man.

Interesting article about China’s scientific community. They are planning to pull an asteroid into earth orbit, mine it, research it, then send it on its way. I am thinking, what an excellent idea, there is probably no chance that this plan could screw up at all. http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2011-08/chinese-scientists-hatch-plan-pull-asteroid-orbit-around-earth?cmp=tw In related news, a major satellite the size…

With righteous indignation, the peace loving government of North Korea lambastes Canada for it’s decision to boycott the UN Conference on Disarmament for the duration of North Korea’s chairmanship. In response, Canada’s Foreign Affairs Minister, John Baird said that Canada would wear the criticism as a badge of honour. Simply put, this is a major…

There are leaders and then there are people who think they are. Bob Rae thinks he is. Canada’s Liberal Party leader (for now) has a rather warped sense of self importance. Imagine the situation as described in this link and then think “sense of entitlement” The taxpayer foots the bill for most, if not all,…

A Happy Canada Day from what may be the dumbest news organization on the planet. A poll, conducted by an Ontario University (funded by my tax dollar I assume) lists Canadian cities in order of their Canuckiness. Guess how many are West of Sudbury. If you said none, you would be correct. Apparently true Canadians…
