Very lovely! The "outside" worker's in Toronto are on strike. That's the problem with these first world countries, anytime they're not happy, they go on strike. It gets me very mad.

I understand in the bad old days of non-unions, people were treated like slaves. But times have changed, haven't they?

So now, our city, with the heat and humidity, mixed with curbside garbage, is going to smell oh-so lovely. "Where are we to store our garbage?", cries the average citizen.

The government will designate locations for temporary garbage disposal; and they've done that. However, since the picket lines are on public property anyway, why not set up the new dump sites right next to the picketers. See how quickly they end the strike and go back to work!

I think it's fair. All they want is job security and cash. If I screw up at work, I'm likely to get fired. If I do well, I stay. How simple as that? These unions are all too encompassing. You almost have to kill somebody to get fired. That's what I hear.

Our paycheck comes out of our tax dollars. It is a finite amount. Agreed?

So this is what I say. Give in to their demands this one time, but install personal recording devices on their bodies, which retains every word they will ever utter. I better NEVER hear them whine about how high the taxes are. Becaues that is grounds for termination. You inflate taxes each time you demand for more money, it is a direct result of your selfishness that each time I buy a burger, I have to pay 15% on top of that!

Garbage collectors do not need a degree. There is no Sanitation Collection 101 offered anywhere that I know of. Yes, it's not a pleasant job, and I appreciate everything you do. But the skillset involved does not justify your salary. I heard from a teacher in grade 8 that garbage-workers get more than they do. How wrong is that? They should be paid way less. Heck, maybe kids will even start studying again, when they realize jobs like that both suck, and pays crap.

Right. I won't give in. I'd rather have the city smell like dirty underwear than to give them more of my hard earned salary.

I told Bon-bon about my website, so she checked it out. Not realizing I sounded like a psycho from my previous posts, she replied in email: Man, you're scaring me. (or something close to that.)

I realize I'm not exactly the cheeriest person this side of the lollipop, but oh well, what can I say? At least I'm true in my feelings, and not ashamed to express them.

Life's full of surprises, and sometimes it snaps at you like a hyperactive mousetrap. Fingers may break, bones may shatter, but usually, it'll heal up eventually. Just give it time.

I'm sorry (actually, I'm not) that you have to read my psychotic ramblings, but chin up ol' chum. I'll be better soon, promise.

The Dream. has been editted. I began with only wanting to fix grammar and spelling errors, then I decided to flesh out the time travelling schtick. In my dream, I knew I shouldn't have picked her up at the end.... but there wasn't a solid reason why. Well I tried to make it a little more believeable, if that is possible.

I had a weird dream last night, and it plays like a short story. It isn't original in concept, but still I found it interesting. I would like to write it for you. It might be a long read for you. Also, I don't remember any names in my dream, so I'll just invent some. Bear in mind my dream does NOT by any stretch represent nor mirror real life individuals. Infact my mind "made up" the main characters in my dream.

Guess who will be in the LPGA next year?

Click the chick

Nice swing, especially the finish. Very pro looking. I think I'm gonna need some tips from you.

....where'd the ball go?

It's been a while since I've wanted to crawl into a hole and die. But today, that sounds like a good idea.

Okay, so I'm being quite melodramatic. But seriously, didn't you say there was a hole around your backyard I could sleep in for a bit?

Sorry kiddies, I'm just feeling like my worth to humanity is in the red. I think I'll go and juggle razor blades and chainsaws.

....thanks for nothing. posted by losir at 10:48 AM
