Bootwhistle
As always, time seems to be passing by just a bit too quickly, since the last post Ralph Klein told a very dirty joke about Belinda Stronach, the Democrats gained majority in the house of representatives (though more from inaptitude of the Republicans than any real work on their part) , and someone invented a car that is powered by bat guano... still have to verify that last one. So the topic for today's post will actually be more of a continuation of the previous one. Where I made comment as to the nature of environment in Calgary, seems that I was completely wrong. Calgary isn't alone in this new self serving environment, seems like all of Alberta has been caught up in it. A recent visit to my hometown of Edmonton brought about the realization that maybe Calgary isn't the source for all the pricks in the world as I've previously believed, a lot seems to have changed in just a couple of years. People in general seem more in rush to get ... wherever the hell the have to get to, though one can only hope it really is important (though I have been told hair emergencies do count).

So I can't just pin my observations of people squarely on Calgary (damn, back to the drawing board) seems like it's a universal condition. The hard part now is deciding whether or not the way people act is something new if one just has had the opportunity to recognize it. Meh, that's for people smarter than me to decide, all I know is that the world is full of self righteous pricks, and you can't escape them where ever you go. Wonder how that moon colonization plan is going?
