AlterNet: Mad Cow USA: The Nightmare Begins – An excellent overview of what the USA has got to do to stop Mad Cow Disease, instead of just throwing the public a great big smokescreen, or blaming Canada.
Forum: The fish that threatened national security – Seriously, if security supervisors are going to yell and scream at someone about a tropical fish, MAYBE THERE’S SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOUR COUNTRY.
Cheer(s)!
Well, it is the latter part of December, a time for getting time off work and going to parties for most people. Myself, our office get-together is tonight, and then on Monday is a reunion of sorts with my old high school class. In between we’re seeing Sandy’s kin over Christmas and then my folks […]
Terror alert chart
Via boingboing: I put this on the fridge at work, it was so funny I couldn’t resist.
out with the crap, in with the new

Uptown theatre in Toronto collapses
CBC Toronto – Man killed in theatre collapse – It’s weird to find out about things that just happened in Toronto via the BBC.
phone envy.
Okay. I’ll be the first to admit that I’ve chosen some poor phones in my life. Like our Uniden cordless phone which I just bought another rechargable battery for – the third one it’s had in over two years. At this point I’m thinking of building one myself. Or the Motorola V101 – when Sandy […]
