B.C. Liberals Are Promising A New Era Of Prosperity
TVforBC.com - B.C. Liberals Are Promising A New Era Of Prosperity
I like just about everything on the list except declaring education an essential service (thus making it impossible for teachers to strike).
Teachers voices should be heard. Schools are in disarray. The vast majority of teachers care deeply about their students' futures and have a lot of very constructive ideas to help the situation.
I don't think the Liberals are TRYING to silence the teachers, but that would be a consequence of taking away teachers' right to strike.
Protesters storm B.C. legislature
CNews: Protesters storm B.C. legislature
A largely left-wing province full of (extremely corrupt) unions, and maybe some non-corrupt unions, elects a center/right wing party with a 76-2 seat margin, and now they're protesting because the government is doing what it said it'd do. HA!
Back Button battling
E-Commerce News: Locked in and Can't Go Back? Sites are 'Mouse-Trapping' Us
As Mr. Mackey would say: "Disabling the back button is bad... Mmmkay"
more about G8 death
Flutterby has a lot of information about the person killed in Genoa during the riots.
Death to David Coursey
David Coursey is a moron.
David Coursey: Death to virus writers! -- "My proposal is simple: When you find a virus author, kill him (or her)."
Coke Machine Accidents
Check this out: Coke Machine Accidents
The site goes on to say that it should be a legal requirement that pop machines be secured to prevent any further accidents or deaths.
Uh, perhaps he tipped it, trying to steal a can of Coke, and it fell on him?
The above should not be in a Report purporting to present the facts. It is pure speculation and supposition. Did Dr. Belanger interview any of the students who shook the machine in the Lobby? It would not seem so from his Report."
And then this:
Ah, so his family thinks he was CHEATED by this pop machine?
Uh, perhaps if he hadn't tried to tip the machine, faulty or not, he wouldn't have crushed himself? Maybe there was a loose pop can, but someone saw it laying on the ground next to the tipped over pop machine and took it.
This is just too stupid.
Oilers vs. Coyotes, October 6, 2001
I called the Oilers ticket office today and inquired about tickets for their home opener. They don't go on sale until September and there might be so few tickets left that they'll have a lottery for them. 
Anyway, I begged and pleaded, told them how I would be coming all the way from SF, Jari Kurri was my favourite player (she confirmed the sweater retirement ceremony would be that day), and that Todd McFarlane is my favourite artist, that I had to be there to get the new McFarlane Oilers jersey and see the ceremony, etc.
I HAVE TO GO TO THAT GAME!!!
