Blood Pressure

What a day!
I've been reloading software into my laptop the past couple of days, the hard way. Seems that after updating the BIOS my recovery disks became useless; but that's not what this is about.
Normally I watch the news at 6:00 PM almost religiously, even though most of it bores me to tears or it just depresses me. Lately though I haven't bothered with watching television at all and honestly I'm not missing it.
There are far more interesting things to be doing.
News coverage online is far better without the silly people reading it to you.
Crooked politicians, wasted tax payer dollars, overpaid cry baby hockey players, gold missing, apologies for speaking your mind in this politically correct world; it never ends.
No apologies from me for this, I'm about to speak my mind.
This country, Canada, does not need a $20 million dollar inquiry into ex prime minister Mulroney and Karlheinz Schreiber's business dealings. We all know Mulroney was and is a crook. How do you accept $300,000. dollars in cash handed to you secretly and then prove it was all innocent. Particularly when you don't declare it as income for 5 years and only then because this inquiry made it public!
Lyin' Brian as he is known earned that nick name by living up to it. Too bad this inquiry isn't able to lay criminal charges!
Danny Heatley of the Ottawa Senators hockey team wants out of Ottawa. Trade me or else he says! Screw him, let him go and good riddance just another overpaid, under worked cry baby thinking he's God's gift to us all. Personally I don't think any player on any sports team is worth the millions they get paid.
The Royal Canadian Mint is calling in the mounties to help find their missing gold. Seems they've misplaced, lost, or simply screwed up in their book keeping and don't know where to begin. Brian's back in town - check his pockets!
John Baird our illustrious loud mouthed transportation minister ended up having to apologize for saying something everybody wants to say and few have the guts to. In a private conversation overheard (eaves dropped) on by media he said
Hey Toronto - f--- Off, you aren't the centre of the universe - live with it.
With all the BS in the news, not watching it is probably a whole lot better for my blood pressure.

"Twenty-seven hundred people (municipalities) got it right. They (Toronto) didn't. That is not a partnership and they're bitching at us," Baird was overheard saying. "They should f--- off."

And yes - sport players are heavily overpaid. Sure people like to watch sports, so fine let's have professional players, but giving them millions yearly? For a bit of fun for the general public?

He's contracted to play -refuses to play - I would have given him the bums rush, not a paycheque.
