Hello my peeps…
Well it’s Monday (YES!) and I am so happy to be awake right now (11:18am). OK OK, so I’d rather be in bed sleeping…so sue me!
I’m not sure what to blog about today so I’m going to go with a pretty “broken” blog if you will and discuss a few things that have made their way through my head this morning…
First off, the election is just around the corner (2 weeks or so) and I (along with Matt) are feeling a bit ill to hear that the Conservatives (Steven Harper – Bush luvin’ bastard) are in the lead. Anyhow, this drives me nuts because the only reason people are (as far as I can tell) even considering voting for the Conservatives is because the Liberals were caught with their hand in the cookie jar! Perhaps there are a select few who actually agree with the points the Conservatives are pushing but in reality a large part of their campaign is riding the fact that liberals gave away a few million bucks. Alright, I don’t agree with the fact that the Liberals were stealing from us, and I think they should be punished (and I believe they are being punished right now by having the polls “scare” them), but I don’t agree with letting the Conservatives take power because – and let’s be honest here – whoever is in there is going to steal! As much as I hate it, it’s true! And with that being said, at least the Liberals were giving it to Canadian companies (as far as I know)…BUT, if Harper gets in there he’ll sell the whole country to the Americans! If Harper was in there during the Iraq fiasco our troops would have been over there and our economy would be doing about as well as our neighbour’s to the South. Bottom line is they all steal, so why go with that blue eyed FREAK SHOW and risk having him sell us to his good buddy Bush rather then let the economy continue to be the best it’s been in years and allow health care to continue receiving funding…my two cents…discuss!
Next on my mind is the weekend…I had my mortgage meeting. The meeting went well, found out what my borrowing power is as well as some good tips about renting. I also dog sat, which, was an adventure! 
Ummm, oh and then there was the fact that my brother has ALL the luck in our family (trade off I guess, I got the looks and the brians – OHHHH, can’t wait to see what you guys say to that). I say that because he won all $460 that was in the pot this weekend for poker! That bastard…he couldn’t lose!
And finally, I read an article detailing how some archaeologists in Guatemala discovered the earliest Mayan writing beneath some pyramid! They dated the sucker using carbon dating (like Lavalife I think – just a little different) and the writing was 2300 years old! DAMN that’s old…apparently they are having trouble deciphering it (YA THINK!?) but they think there is a word representing “ruler” in there some where. My guess is some guy was bored and wrote “Jo Mamma was here” or “For a good time call Chaaktemal” or something like that.
Cheers!
Andrew
