Copyright to fight Intelligent Design quacks?....Monarchist League - I read this message board and almost pissed myself laughing...Found an east-coast scala processing lab, yay!...After surfing wikipedia, I discovered that I am a lollard! - amazing how one can find oneself through random surfing - Thank Goodness it wasn't something wierder.

Wierd series of dreams last night - dreamt about ex-girlfriend Danielle, the guy she cheated on me with Tim, a wierd hillbilly car race that I was taking part in, scary, creepy death-like creatures (hood, black face, skeletal arms coming at me through a portal in the wall.

Not playing ultimate this year, too pricey ($65 for the fall season - bit rich for frisbee)...enclosed picture is of a guy welding girders into place at the top of the Blue Cross building extension...new nhl rules rock...somebody came to my blog with search parameters about "last guy in nhl to not wear a helmut" - ansewr is "Brad Marsh"...my iso800 pictures turned out really well, much to my surpise - I was under the impression that the grain would be much more noticeable...can't believe that idiot (I used to like him, to my shame) Gille Duceppe said that Moncton is not bilingual - half of the conversations that I overhear in Moncton are bilingual, usally with all parties in the conversation switching leisurely between the languages

I'm so f@#$d
I'm so f@#$d at work. They want us to help out with a project at a remote location that is out of time and out of budget, but the pinheads on the project don't seem to understand how bad the project is and they are being real pricks about accepting help. Time to fire some f$%#%g consultants. Just once, I would like to start a project myself instead of coming in after a project is already f#@$@#$d and cleaning up someone elses f@#$#g mess...I need to drink . Pairie Fire shots and B-52 shots, alternating, for about 4 hours is about what I need. It's been too long since I had Tequila. Too long. Damn...discovered that my cousin has a serious gambling addiction. In deep, too deep to loan sharks. Beyond my ability to easily remedy, and you don't want to become an enabler. But ya gotta do something, just not sure what...I gotta call in sick tomorrow.

One of those days
Interesting picture. I like the disparity in attitudes - the redhead looks all intense and serious. The girl on the left seems to be laughing. The redhead's hand on the throat of the girl on the left seems like a subtle power move. I like the flesh tones in this picture. Large round earings vs small, appears to be diamond earings on the redhead. Classy brown outfit on the girl on the left and appears to be more unkempt, bra showing, mismatch on the redhead. I like how the photographer has gotten right in on the action, filled the frame.

Sunday
Doublespeak of the Month - Reg Alcock has the cajones to say that the Conservatives that are embarrassing the civil service by "mentioning" the scandals - it couldn't possibly be the government or civil service for engaging in scandalous behaviour, could it?....Eli Manning was a brilliant fantasy pool pick on my part, 4 tds today...really nice, warm, Autumn day today

Saturday
Male Models die by jumping over fence in the dark trying to avoid paying a $40 taxi fair, but died because in the dark they couldn't see that there was a 60 foot dtrop on the other side of the fence...darwinism at work....how the #@$@#$ can Paul Coffin not get jail time for stealing 1.5 million dollars in 15 fraud counts?...if Roger Clemons isn't the gratest picther of all time, I don't no anything about baseball - he has won twice as many cy youngs as anyone else, and is currently leading the NL in era at the age of 43...by the way, I was wrong about the Red Sox signing of David Wells - who knew a 41 year old fat guy with a bad back would win 16 games?...Weazled out of flying to Vancouver for 2 weeks for work, I hat eflying to Vancouver...if I am going to spend 7-8 hours in a plane I flying to Europe, dammit...Wild Gorillas seen using tools - take that, "Intelligent Design" losers...for the love of god, please let science and darwinism win the Intelligent Design court case, or else the western world is headed towards another dark age, kind of like when the greeks bugged out when they discovered irrational numbers

Wensday
Google Search beta released...My fantasy football team won it's first game! Pretty good, considering I don't watch football. To celebrate I cut my starting quarterback and kicker. Lefty QB Mark Brunnell is my big hope now...great poster by the Switchblade Valentines...More people come to my blog by searching for Rona Ambrose than anything else - Rona, you will be PM in my lifetime...ok I know my blog sucks, but NO MORE SPAM COMMENTS FROM WEBSITES SELLING CRAP - leave comments if you like my site (please?) but I will never buy anything (I am very poor) from spamsters

8 bucks for Grand Theft Bus, bit much for a club band...I might just go postal on a know-it-all in the back row of the camera course I'm taking at Ivan's Camera - I mean why does a guy take the course when he knows every@#$@!!thing about cameras?...Mulroney sure stepped in it, eh?

Monday
Great headline that you don't see often - "Nukes if Necessary" (seen on front page of today's National Post)...WHA era finally over - Mark Messier, last active player who took a shift in the WHA, retired today, age 44, after 25 years in the NHL - I always remember him as the one player that the Soviets could never contain in the 84/87 Canada Cups...Paul Martin's idea of building refineries in Canada is actually a good one, I would like to here more details on it - if you could actually do it by building the refineries where it made the most economical sense without political considerations I might actually vote for the man...I officialy hate my job today, reasons withheld

Reversing Falls Bridge
Went to the Rolling Geriatrics (Stones) concert in Moncton. WellI didn't actually go as in pay, or as in enter the gates, but I went to the area leading up to the entrance gates to people watch. Saw this incredibly hot number (picture to follow once I get the slides developed) wearing tight little daisy dukes and light-brown cowboy boots and a nice little straw cowboy hat...unfortunately, her boyfriend looked tough enough to pound me into left-over spam...as I was phoning a friend near the magnetic hill gates I saw a guy, completely wasted, wearing no shirt, shorts + undershorts down to his knees, walking casually and blissfully to the main road...I wonder how that turned out...a lot of babes going to the concert...one statuesque babe wearing a string bikini top and a cowboy hat leaped out into the road and tried to thumb down a ride....in a first for red-blooded males, the guy drriving the car actually turned her down...organizers did a fantastic job of organizing things, no true signs of chaos

Some geek I know
Back from vacation. Went to Fundy, hiked a lot. Went to Buctouche, very pretty there. Was given a very nice 70-300mm lense for my retro Nikon FE SLR, which is very nice. Going to take a photography course from Maurice Henri in September, another gift for my birthday. Trying hard to ignore the whole governor general nonsense, but this is what you can expect when one person, acting alone and without consultation, can appoint the head of state. Andy Savoy attacking Bernard Lord for the latter's criticism of the GG selection is amazingly dumb - any citiizen in a democracy has the right, nay the duty, to question any action of the government that they deem suspect, and last time I checked, Bernie was a citizen. My ultimate frisbee team finished dead last in our ultimate league, not helped of course by my feeble come back attempt from my fractured foot. Amazingly hot girls in the Saint John city market yesterday for some reason.

Path
Drove to Halifax, worked the morning, then drove back to Moncton, all by 4:30...stopped by downtown Amherst on the way back - the turn-of-the century buildings are very well preserved - I don't know where the money comes from though, doesn't seem to be any serious businesses in town...enclosed picture is from the Sackvile Waterfowl park, using my beloved Agfa black and white slide film...World's second largest cruise ship in Saint John, that's kind of cool

Journey
Funny - just as I was criticizing Asimov's Foundation series, along comes this - Cell Phones Predict the Future - basically, using math + previous data (in large quantities) to predict human's behaviour - exactly the premise of Asimov's Fuondation series...This scares me - Canadian Telco Admits to Blocking Union's Website - the willingness of an internet provider to censor content for no other reason than they don't like it - well that just gives me the "big brother" corporate willies - BOYCOTT TELUS !!!...The new NHL rules rock...I can't believe those dinosaurs actually had the balls to make these changes...no-red line rule (I almost typed no red loin which might have been more interesting) might have the extra effect of forcing teams to choose more-mobile defencemen over less-mobile physical defencement to avoid getting burned, which should also help cut down on the clutch and grab...shootout rule might tempt teams to give that last lineup spot to a sniper instead of a plugger, which also should help scoring.
Second Foundation
Found my copy if Asimov's Second Foundation behind my bookcase, rereading it...I like it, but the foundation series tends to re-use the same plot devices with small variations over and over...can't put it down, though...gorgeous girl in tank top leaned over in front of me today, I had such a good view that I could see through the cleavage to the inside/bottom of the bra-bridge, as seen from the top...not that, as a gentleman, I would notice...do women who wear tank-tops not know what happens when they lean over?...enclosed picture is from Saint John, N.B....I liked the colours...

Tuesday
Got my black and white slide delivered today - they look marvelous, kudos to Toronto Image Works...got them back 6 business days after sending...two phot contests upcoming, Sandpiper Festival in Dorchester (due July 22), and one in Hillsoborogh, date unknown (around the 20th)...problem is, these contests usually want pictures of people and nature, and as anyone knows, I usually take pictures of buildings only...part of the reason is that I don't have a devent telephoto lens...or any telephoto lense, for that matter...interesting court case out west - some guy is suing the government under the charter of rights because he can't allow smokers in his bar yet the native-owned bar can...basically saying laws have to apply to all or noone....interesting if he won, as some of the natives don't pay taxes either...wouldn't that be neat - against the charter of rights to pay taxes

Dreams
I had a dream involving Danielle, my first girlfriend again...it was wierd, different than the others...he hair was all dyed, stringy, she was wearing loose, raggy clothes...unlike other dreams where she is very sensual, coming on to me all the time...very stand-offish, in and out of the dream, and I kept telling her honest things, which of course I never did when we went out...took pictures of a nice church (built 1825) in Grand Barachois today, a place I have never been...Funny quote of the day - Mariah Carey has wardrobe malfunction , and the link is quoted as saying "..Quick-thinking organisers plunged the stage into darkness to protect the star's modesty..." (when her dress fell apart)...ok, I saw the dress (don't feel like posting the picture, kinda humdrum mood today), her "great tracts of land" :) are spilling every which way out of the dress, no way can you describe this as being modest in any context, and this is before it fell apart.

Confederation Bridge
Damn foot is fractured, have to wear an air cast and use crutches for a month...was supposed to go to Halifax tomorrow, that's off now...Atlantic Nationals car show is out, as well as ultimate frisbee...

Twisted Ankle
Twisted my ankle playing ultimate tonight. We were getting killed 14-2 and I twisted my ankle trying to block a pass - I'm beginning to think that I'm a real pinhead....saw the hottest chick today riding a harley, clad head-to-toe in leather, bomber helmut, tight blonde pony tail sticking out from back of helmut - I actually had my camera on me but froze...Checkpoint Charlie Torn down - historians will rue this day. The exact point where the counter philosophies of democracy/capitalism and communism stood toe to toe, armed to the teeth, with the collective firepower to wipe out humanity, for 40+ years - gone. What are they thinking?

Sackville "Waterfowl Park"
Sony confidant you'll work harder (more hours) for their PS3...PS3 at $500, IPods at $500+...wouldn't ya rather take the time you would have to work to get these toys and go to the beach? I would...Liberals hit funding wall - I could care less about the sponsoship scandal - I think we should have the RCMP check and see what the Liberals are stealing right now - they obviously think Harper is more dangerous than Satan and have already stated in the sponsoship inquiry that they think it's legit to bend the rules if they think it's good for the country, of course loosely defining good for the country as them always being in power.
