Today I finally got around to watching the debate; the enlish one, at least. I must admit that I fell asleep during the third theme, but woke up just in time to here the fourth, about unity and sovreinty. One question was asked what the leaders would do if the Bloc won an election and declaired themselves their own country (despite the fact that it's against the law nationally and internationally). Gilles Duceppe said that he would negotiate with the rest of Canada, and that he would seperate. This made made Martin sooo upset and told Duceppe that he would never be aloud to seperate Quebec form his family (who grew up there). While saying this, Duceppe looked strait at the all the Canadians (at least the Quebec ones :) ) with a look on his face as if to say "My God, look at this crazy mother fucker!" i thought it was funny.
I actually quite like Gilles Duceppe and his political views, except of course his most valued view which is to seperate. but aside from that i think he's cool and agree most of the time.

Bus Serise #3 The Elderly
As stated in one of the comments, some bus drivers can be reckless. Although I personally prefer that the driver goes fast, he must pay some attention to the fact that there are elderly pepole taking the bus.
On one occasion, I was riding the bus whose model has a single seat right behind the bus driver's pit. These buses are not very common, but on this day an old lady happend to get on this type of bus. She chose to sit on this lone elivated chair which requires a step to mount.
The bus driver took no heed and drove quickly around the corners. Most where left turns, pushing her into the seat. But one was a right turn thrusting her out of the seat and landing on the ground. Of course every one on the bus rushed to her aid. She turned out to be fine, but the vibe on the bus was obviously that this bus driver was in the wrong, especially for not moving from his seat, nor making any appology.

Bus Series #2 Donaughts and Cigarettes
Another reason I like taking the bus, is because you never know when something's going to happen.
The other day, I was on my way downtown, and when there is no one else on the bus, the bus drivers usually asks if i'm going to Hurdman, which i always am. So they take me, and this bus driver was no different.
But I'm lying because he was different...maybe it was the whole work to rule, but non the less still illigal, he pulls out a cigarette and smokes it! He's not hiding it, not blowing it out the window, and not giving to shits. Just thought that was funny.
In telling this to my friend Ryan, he told me an equally funny story, which happend around the same time. Taking the very first bus in the morning, he came to Hurdman, and to his delight, a bus was doing donaughts in the parking lot in the middle of a snow storm. A BUS!
Today's Lesson: Bus driver's are ppl too: they like donaughts, coffee and cigarettes.

Bus Series #1: Window-Licker
Today I saw Window-Licker on the bus and reminded myself that I wanted to write a blog about him. I had not gotten around to it, but since there are several bus stories I wish to tell you about, I think I will start with this one.
I got on the bus one day to make my way downtown, as I do regularily. November happends to be a messy time of year, and OC Transpo is forever in dept and so cleans buses minimally. By this you would expect that windows might get quite dirty. Well on this particular bus, the windows where dirty on the out side, making it hard to see, but also frost on the interior prohibited vision further.
The bus was quite full, and i stood, looking at this one particular man who was so thin that he just floated in his clothing. A real bum. Real sad looking. So here I am feeling sorry for the poor guy, who pokes his head around like a pigeon would, when he decides he needs to see out this window. He uses the side of his fist -pinky-side to the window -and removes the frost. But this doesn't matter since there is still dirt on the other side.
He is defeated. But apon noticing that his hand is dirty (visible at my rang) he begins to lick his hand! And KEEPS licking, even after he sticks out his tongue in distaste and makes a scrunchy face. No word of a lie, I was gagging, seriously resisting the urge to throw-up on the bus. I imaging the flavor of dirt and random people's oils and sweat must taste something along the lines of bitter salty. Some flavor, anyhow, that I think would prompt most individuals to halt licking -even those who would delve to actually lick it in the first place!

Extra! Extra!
Just to give you an update, incase you only read my blogs, but don't look at the side columns...
there is a new poll which i would like all of you to take part in. i am thinking about deleting a blog. if you would like to see what this blog is like, please go to the seamonkey blog under blogaholic. then after viewing and keeping in mind that i have no intention of ever posting on this blog again, vote.
another option which is not included in the poll, is that i could keep it until i have a new pet and post their new life, whichever pet. infact i like this idea...perhaps you can give me some feed back.
Another change is i've created a new blog. This can also be seen under bogaholic, or in the comments of my previous post. i also need a theme for this one too, if you have any ideas.
The last announcement is about ICQ which I have recently down loaded with my old ICQ#
Let me remind you of the great things ICQ has to offer.
Invisible: this is where you apear offline, but you can actually still talk to ppl. On msn i find that even if i put my self as away or something ppl still talk to me, even if i'm going online to talk to one person specifically for a project or something.
Away: you can actually type a msg to let ppl now what you are doing, with out having to change your name.
the sounds effects: remember the uh-oh? or the horn when you start up, or the smash when some one wants to add you? these are much better then the weird alert you get from msn. then bing for a person coming online, and the tone for the instant msg.
history: even if you close the dialogue window, the history is still there, which is useful if you are like me and close the windows all the time, but then forget what the conversation was when the other person replies.
new improvements: the new ICQ version5 gets rid of all the old crap and makes ICQ cool again. also ICQ has much cooler interactive games than msn with it's WARSHEEP. this is an awsome game.
so who is with me? get ICQ and we can be friends!
is all for now.

moment of truth
the moment of truth is when exams come. when you are not sure if you will do well or do poorly. i feel like i know the material, but there is no way of really knowing (before taking the exam) because i didn't really go to class that much this semester. i'm not too worried about exams... but i don't even know if i should be.
so the moment of truth is when i take the exam and find out if skipping classes is okay.
in the past i never skipped. so i assume that my marks are prolly a little lower than my usual marks. but as you know from my previous posts, i really don't care. so long as i do decent.
