Nar Nar....

T minus 5 days and I will be sunning myself on the beautiful white sandy beaches of the Dominican Republic.....nar nar.....granted, Rob and I had to go into debt to do it, but looking at the blizzard we are at this moment experiencing makes it all worth while. And how lovely it will be to witness the nuptuals of the sweet, sultry Meghan Alton to the dashing Graeme Cooper....on the beach.....at sunset.....a postcard come to life.....*sniff sniff*.....now wipe away a tear.....

In other news, I voted today. I commented to Rob this morning that it has been years that I have actually voted FOR someone....not since Ed Broadbent was the leader of the NDP, actually. I have settled onto the routine of voting in the hopes that the evilest of many do not gain power. I don't want any of our current parties to have absolute power, but I had to pick the one I felt had the best chance of beating the Conservatives....or at least keep them from having a majority government.

......Craig West, don't forget about "Operation Ex-Pat" if the Conservatives do win.....I will be keeping a close eye on my e-mail, buddy.....

I must go and attend to my laundry. I have to wash all my summer clothes to bring with me.....nar nar.....

Letterman and O'Reilly Duke It Out

Anyone see Bill O'Reilly on David Letterman Tuesday January 3, 2006? No? Well you should have....it was AWESOME!!! When Rob found out that O'Reilly was Letterman's guest that evening, I could tell he was a bit disappointed that Letterman would have him on the show. I responded by stating I thought it would be interesting and Letterman may just tear O'Reilly a new one......he didn't let me down.

I guess the highlight would have been when Letterman told O'Reilly, "I think about 60% of what you say is crap." When O'Reilly asked Letterman to back up his statement, David told him "that would be impossible" because he doesn't watch the show.

Then there is always, "I don't believe this is an actual threat. I think this is something that happened here and it happened there and so people like you are trying to make us think that it's a threat." which is what David said to O'Reilly regarding the War on Christmas....you go Dave!!

Neither Bill nor David looked very happy during the interview, and at the end of it David swung his chair around and stared at the papers on his desk...no during commercial banter for Mr. O'Reilly, I guess.

Vive la Letterman!!!
