Well, I'm still very much excited about this whole Blogging thing. I still find it hard to fathom how arrogant I must be to think anyone wants to read about what I ate for breakfast today. The wonders of this so called infernet. The effect us all. At least those of us who are bored and have nothing to do but play around on a computer. Speaking of what I ate for breakfast today, it was a glass of water and a vitamin pill. Centering vitamins a believe.
today I finally decided to cast my vote for the greatest Canadian. There was no question in my mind really. The person who I had originally thought to nominate happens to be in the top ten and I couldn't feel better about it. Not only that but he is #1.
Tommy Douglas. The founder of our health care system and father of modern Canadian socialism. How do you like that? I should probably also add he is the father of Donald Sutherland and grandfather of Keifer Sutherland. Not his best work, but sadly his most reputable. Still, I couldn't be happier he holds the number one spot. He has had it since the begining of the program and hopefully, he'll hold it until Monday when the winner is announced.
some of the tragedy I found whilst exploring the top 100 is some of the mid level choices. People like Avril Lavinge and Pamela Anderson. I fail to see how they could be in the top 500, but perhaps I'm just biased. Is Paris Hilton the greatest American? Geri Halliwell the greatest Britt? Its been said so many times it should be a cliche. This argument had been made for years, but you'll never be able to sway the 14 year masses. Luckily they cant vote in real elections. When I was 14, I probably would have voted for the reform party. Most rules make sense. The ones that don't, no one abides by anyway.
in short, the world is full of slackers. Think of every job you've ever worked. No one likes a keener. Ever one is lazy, no one wants to get caught. Its a good system. I could be better, but as long as the minimum wage employees keep ripping of their corporate masters, I'll be a happy camper.
