			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I got to go to Vancouver and am actually here now while I write this listening to debating at the meeting.</p>
<p>Anyway, I know that I haven&#8217;t been updating this site very often, but I have been busy.  However if you know me at all I did finally join facebook, but do expect too much activity from me, that bloody site is very addictive.</p>
<p>But now back to vancouver, I have added some pictures from my trip and more will be there next week.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not sure where these came from originally, but I go them in an email and thought that they were blog-worthy</p>
<blockquote><p>George Carlin&#8217;s new rules for &#8216;07</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    Stop giving me that pop-up ad for classmates.com! There&#8217;s a reason<br />
    you don&#8217;t talk to people for 25 years. Because you don&#8217;t<br />
    particularly like them! Besides, I already know what the captain of<br />
    the football team is doing these days . . . he&#8217;s mowing my lawn.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    Don&#8217;t eat anything that&#8217;s served to you out a window unless you&#8217;re a<br />
    seagull. People are acting all shocked that a human finger was found<br />
    in a bowl of Wendy&#8217;s chilli. Hey, it cost less than a dollar. What<br />
    did you expect it to contain? Trout?</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    Stop saying that teenage boys who have sex with their hot, blonde<br />
    teachers are permanently damaged. I have a better description for<br />
    these kids:lucky bastards.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    If you need to shave and you still collect baseball cards, you&#8217;re a<br />
    dope.  If you&#8217;re a kid, the cards are keepsakes of your idols. If<br />
    you&#8217;re a grown man, they&#8217;re pictures of men.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    Ladies, leave your eyebrows alone. Here&#8217;s how much men care about<br />
    your eyebrows: do you have two of them? Okay, we&#8217;re done.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    There&#8217;s no such thing as flavored water. There&#8217;s a whole aisle of<br />
    this crap at the supermarket; water, but without that watery taste.<br />
    Sorry, but flavored water is called a soft drink. You want flavored<br />
    water? Pour some scotch over ice and let it melt. That&#8217;s your<br />
    flavored water.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    Stop screwing with old people. Target is introducing a redesigned<br />
    pill bottle that&#8217;s square, with a bigger label. And the top is now<br />
    the bottom. And by the time grandpa figures out how to open it, his<br />
    ass will be in the morgue. Congratulations, Target, you just solved<br />
    the Social Security crisis.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    The more complicated the Starbucks order, the bigger the asshole. If<br />
    you walk into a Starbucks and order a &#8220;decaf grande half-soy,<br />
    half-low fat, iced vanilla, double-shot, gingerbread cappuccino,<br />
    extra dry, light ice, with one Sweet-n&#8217;-Low, and one NutraSweet,&#8221;<br />
    ooh, you&#8217;re a huge asshole.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    I&#8217;m not the cashier! By the time I look up from sliding my card,<br />
    entering my PIN number, pressing &#8220;Enter,&#8221; verifying the amount,<br />
    deciding, no, I don&#8217;t want cash back, and pressing &#8220;Enter&#8221; again,<br />
    the kid who is supposed to be ringing me up is standing there eating<br />
    my Almond Joy.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    Just because your tattoo has Chinese characters in it doesn&#8217;t make<br />
    you spiritual. It&#8217;s right above the crack of your ass. And it<br />
    translates to &#8220;beef with broccoli.&#8221; The last time you did anything<br />
    spiritual, you were praying to God you weren&#8217;t pregnant. You&#8217;re not<br />
    spiritual. You&#8217;re just high.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    Competitive eating isn&#8217;t a sport. It&#8217;s one of the seven deadly sins.<br />
    ESPN recently televised the U. S. Open of Competitive Eating,<br />
    because watching those athletes at the poker table was just too<br />
    damned exciting. What&#8217;s next, competitive farting? Oh wait. They&#8217;re<br />
    already doing that. It&#8217;s called &#8220;The Howard Stern Show.&#8221;</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    I don&#8217;t need a bigger mega M&#038;Ms.  If I&#8217;m extra hungry for M&#038;Ms, I&#8217;ll<br />
    go nuts and eat two.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    If you&#8217;re going to insist on making movies based on crappy, old<br />
    television shows, then you have to give everyone in the Cineplex a<br />
    remote so we can see what&#8217;s playing on the other screens. Let&#8217;s<br />
    remember the reason something was a television show in the first<br />
    place is that the idea wasn&#8217;t good enough to be a movie.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    No more gift registries. You know, it used to be just for weddings.<br />
    Now it&#8217;s for babies and new homes and graduations from rehab.<br />
    Picking out the stuff you want and having other people buy it for<br />
    you isn&#8217;t gift giving; it&#8217;s the white people version of looting.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    And this one is long overdue: No more bathroom attendants. After I<br />
    zip up, some guy is offering me a towel and a mint like I just had<br />
    sex with George Michael. I can&#8217;t even tell if he&#8217;s supposed to be<br />
    there, or just some freak with a fetish. I don&#8217;t want to be on your<br />
    web cam, dude. I just want to wash my hands.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    When I ask how old your toddler is, I don&#8217;t need to know in months.<br />
    &#8220;27 Months.&#8221; &#8220;He&#8217;s two,&#8221; will do just fine. He&#8217;s not a cheese. And I<br />
    didn&#8217;t really care in the first place.</p>
<p>    New Rule: </p>
<p>    If you ever hope to be a credible adult and want a job that pays<br />
    better than minimum wage, then for God&#8217;s sake don&#8217;t pierce or tattoo<br />
    every available piece of flesh. If so, then plan your future around<br />
    saying&#8221; Do you want fries with that?&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Anyway, I ordered a new book today so I guess when I get that I will be doing more with it.&nbsp; Anyway, it is just a pastime so I guess if I have no time to pass I shouldn&#8217;t be too worried about it.</p>
