ah, the memories are ripe as another hockey season fast-approaches. Peter Mahr's voice will soon be ringing loud in my tv-less house. Of course, i can't go to a flames game anymore, as the season is already sold out, with 14 to 15 thousand season's tickets in advance. anyway, haven't been doing shit-all bloggin of late because i dropped my camera and broke it. as well, i'm genuinely happy with my life right now, and don't have much to complain about...until i preview the news sites and see what is happening in the world. What do people think of the Thai coup that happened lately? What about vietnemese food? salad rolls???dammit, those have to be the best things going. I'm sure that we have more than 400 Vietnemese noodle houses in calgary right now, and new ones opening all the time..quite an insatiable taste for noodles us beef lovers have. ta

Does anyone else think that we have reached a cultural low in this world? How many times do we have to be inundated with stupid pranks, people copying jackass, or just general benevolence as far as the world outside of the city goes before it becomes too much? I'm tired of the norm of decency towards human beings being shifted towards the acceptance of assholes, attention-seekers, and general goofs. I don't feel better watching that crap, and at what point does it become too much? I'm not becoming a centrist leaning right, or anything like that. But, there is a richness in culture available to everyone...ideas...the internet is full of them, as are libararies and people we talk to. We can become more intelligent..rather than dumbed down, as is what appears to be happening. We can only improve society through education and learning, and wanting to learn, striving to learn..not through paint-balling people on the street, or dropping rocks off of bridges onto cars. Bam Margera is a self-centered man who has done nothing to improve or positively affect society.
