Man Do I Ever Hate The Media

So yesterday the news networks were in full vulture mode over more terror related flight news. Sort of.

Round the clock coverage with BREAKING NEWS updates and all kinds of shit to scare the hell out of the world.

At some point yesterday somehow news broke that a plane from England bound for Washington DC was being diverted because of an emergency to Boston. And here is what was reported NATION WIDE as the story.

The plane was sitting on the runway in Boston. All the passengers were unloaded from the plane and hurded in to one area still on the runway. These potential terrorists couldn’t even be taken up to the terminal.

The reason? Somehow someone had gotten on the plane with a tube of vascoline, a screw driver, some matches and 2 notes, one of which was written in Arabic and mentioned El Quada. After everything that happened last week, if this was the case then there was every reason for panic.

HOWEVER!

This turned out to NOT, in fact, be the case. The REAL story turned out to be that an ELDERLY WOMAN was having a panic attack in the plane! The flight staff could not calm the woman down and felt it was safer for her and everyone else to land the plane to get the situation under control.

That tidbit came out this morning. Now you would assume that all these honest and honourable news stations would rush to clarify everything today and tell us what really happened. Unfortunately, that’s not part of the agenda of these organizations.

There has been NEXT TO KNOW mention of this situation. This after it being all that was talked about on the 24 hour news stations yesterday afternoon. The only acknowledgement came from a 20 second clip making it sound like a completely different incident, basically mentioned in passing when listing off headlines.

You would think that after having it on all day yesterday, it would warrant more of a clear up than that. But hey. What do I know about the news – all I know is being honest, I guess. Maybe I’ll never make it in the media.

Douche bags

This Big Ramsey Murder Thing

So John Karr has been arrested in Thailand for the murder of a young girl. He’s also been accused of sexually abusing the young girl in Boulder, Colorado. He was formerly a 2nd Grade Teacher there but was relieved of his teaching duties when his computer was found full of child pornography. My question is, why wasn’t he arrested at that time instead of just relieved of his teaching duties?

More importantly. How did he get out of the country? Especially to Thailand because all know what’s in Thailand.

I mean should he not have been stopped at the airport on the way out when they saw where his ticket was taking him and in his luggage was only 2 laptop’s and a bag of lollypop’s?

It’s Just Wrong

Alright, girls. So you know how most of you all have that one guy friend who’s a great guy? And who you really like and spend lots of time with… but you won’t date him? Ya. That’s WRONG! Because you see, if that guy is spending time with you – it means he likes you. I mean… really. Why else would he be so willing to put up with your… talking? Honestly. If a guy talks to you for more than like 10 minutes – it means he’s probably in to you. He’s putting in Quality time in the hopes that after all that time of putting in the Q.T. it may lead to the Booty. Meanwhile – you never have that intention.

You know what that’s like to a guy? That’s like him going in for a job interview and having the employer say “Wow – that’s a great resume! This is just great. You have everything we’re looking for, all the experience we want – you’re just perfect. But ya… we’re not going to hire you. We’ll probably hire someone with half your qualifications and that has a drinking problem. But wow this is a great resume. In fact we’ll keep this resume and use it to grade all other potential employees against it. Now um, I have a question. We won’t ever, under any circumstance, hire you – but is it okay if we call you from time to time to complain to you about the guy we do hire? Cuz you’re just great.”

It’s wrong! Cut it out!

Scarey Shit

So I”m sure most of you have heard about the foiled terror plot from the U.K. and U.S.A.

I’ll be the first to say I guess I’m a little too jaded sometimes. I was never shy about saying that these raised levels of security and new Terrorist prevention organizations were just a huge waste of time and that there are 6 billion people on the planet so there’s no way to know who’s going to attack you and when. That these were just a tremendous waste of money and did nothing but scare the public.

I’ll shut my mouth today. In the last 2 months, 2 large terrorist plots have been foiled. One here in the Toronto area and this most recent one today involving these flights. I’ll tip my hat to whoever was tracking this and was able to stop it, as apparently it would have been much larger than 9/11 in terms of loss of life as they aimed to blow up flights heading to major airports in California, New York and Washington D.C.

I’ll say this. It’s a scarey fucking world and it’s not getting any more pleasant.

Take Care

Um…ok?

Wow! This comment tops all I think. As Matt would say, Offside!

This was under the six other comments about James Blunt, which subsequently degenerated. Who knew it would sink to this?

I love a good hardon impaling my arsehole .
Does anyone else ?
The best part is the hot cream filling my insides .
Do feel to write me .
I am not gay but I still do it .
Am I wrong ?

Is this person seeking advice? Or is he the long-searched for man who has been on the long search for Randy Orton’s penis?

Nothing Else To Do

Well got nothing else to do – so here’s randomness.

That awful new Paris Hilton song is stuck in my head. If you haven’t heard it, don’t. Just believe me it’s awful. Man I like some gay shit lately.

My 8 year old cousin won second prize at the Harcourt Park Olympics at my cottage in swimming. She kicks ass.

The Jays are done. They went in the tank for over a week and ended playoff hopes. How sure am I? I’ve never been lucky enough to go to a Jays playoff game live – and I’ve always wanted to but they haven’t made it in 13 years. If they do this – I promise not to go watch which will kill me. That’s how sure I am.

Opie and Anthony are hilarious. I have XM Satellite Radio and a new perk is that you can listen online which is great for me at work. If you have the means, either on XM (channel 202) or if they’re sindicated on one of your local stations – listen. It’s great.

ECW comes to Canadian TV this week. Friday night – Midnight. Global. Good main event for the debut with Kurt Angle v Sabu. Watch.

3 and a half work weeks left until it’s move in day to the new place and then back to school. You can not believe how I’m counting the days.

Steve blew me off for the long weekend and then did nothing. I hope some sort of angry sharp toothed animal does something to some sensitive part of his anatomy in the fairly near future.

Well that only helped me kil like 5 minutes – you people aren’t good for anything.

Aw that was mean – it’s not your fault. Except Steve whom I hope …. well read above.
