Elevation
Let him know that you know best Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Give him a list of what is wrong
Things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you
- How to save a Life, The Fray
Friday are when my Humber midterm marks officially get submitted. I have a rough idea of how things will look, and so far, so good. Let's just hope I can keep it up, knock on stainless steel. Why stainless steel? Get with the times, people :P
Speaking of getting with the times, I find the recent uproar in the Canadian press over Peter McKay supposedly referring to Belinda Stronach as a 'dog' in parliament. Putting aside the argument of whether or not this actually happened--I'm pretty sure most of the people on all parties were asleep at the time; there is a reason CPAC is not a very popular channel, you know--the attention given to it is rather ridiculous. A bitter ex? Now I've seen everything! What's next, cop eating a donut? And somehow, the opposition has managed to spin this into an attack on all women, as if Belinda Stronach is somehow representative of the average Canadian woman. Because, you know, the average Canadian woman is the daughter of a multimillionaire entrepreneur with blonde hair who has affairs with popular married hockey players. I walk down my street, I see ten of them. The most absurd part of all this? That this is the most important issue in canadian news right now. Seriously. This is important? Is there no real pressing issue for these elected government officials to handle? Is everything in the country in tip-top shape? Okay, then. Let's work on stuff that actually affects people then, eh?
More later. I'm suffering from a combiantion of writer's block (blogger's block? Blogblock? Blogck?) and lack of time. Enjoy!
