Road Trip Craziness I

On the weekend, the family and I kicked it to Kingston to see The Arctic Sunrise (Greenpeace boat). On our way home, we stopped to get something to drink. We pulled up next to this red pick up truck. It's bed was full of some neon green something... Turned out it was full chainsaws. No kidding. So while the hubby went in to get a drink, I stealthily devised a way to snap a pick of the thing for proof - but the guy in the truck kept staring at me and my son. It was weird.





So when my man finally got back to the car, I told him about all the staring, and then for shits and giggles, I took a picture of him (because I'm awesome like that). Only upon downloading the pictures off the camera did we realise that The Chainsaw Enthusiast was staring at us the whole time!







So the long and short of it is that it was crazy, yet admittedly kinda awesome, as I've never been witness to a truck full of chainsaws before. These are the stuffs that dreams are made of.


*NOTE: GMA wants me to add that the Chainsaw Enthusiast was from Quebec and had a moustache. 'Nuff said.

The Yuletide season is upon us. For the better prepared portion of our community, you've finished your x-mas shopping. For the bulk of my readers, you probably haven't even begun. For most people, x-mas shopping involves wracking your brain for -the- gift that will compliment your loved ones. For others, a last minute dash to the dollar store will suffice. Then there are the people that shop for their pets. These are not only the people that buy for their pets, but also give from their pets as well. From: Mittenz Major corporations make millions off of these chumps pet owners by milking them for everything their worth. From holiday themed pet toys, to pictures for your best friends with Santa Claws (heh heh) Today I received an e-flyer from PetSmart about some handy-dandy last minute gift ideas for my pets. I am the disgruntled owner of two disgusting cats. Regardless of the fact that they are ungrateful bastards, I wouldn't buy them presents strictly on the principle t

Okay, right off the bat - Approx. 17% of Canada's population is children/youth under the age of 15. A survey conducted in 2003 by the Canadian Teachers’ Federation says watching TV is a daily pastime for 75 percent of Canadian children, both boys and girls from Grade 3 to Grade 10.( ... ) Thus, the average child in Canada spends on average 42 hours a week in front of the television or computer.( ... ) That is a huge demographic. A huge demographic of children being subjected to not only the tripe that's on the tube, but gallons and gallons of information that's being processed through their developing brains on a daily basis. Television stations make millions off colourful, musical shows that get kids hooked. And if they promise a jump on a learning curve, parents will eat that shit up with a spoon. Anything to make their kids smarter and give them that 'edge' and parents forget that they're propagating the problem of hours in front of the boob tube. That said,
