Okay so it's the 1st of February and we might get our second or is it third "snow storm" of the year... now I'm not saying that 15-20 centimetres (or ~7 inches) isn't a fair amount of snow... but all day in the news, in the office all you hear about is will I be able to make it in tomorrow. What the hell is wrong with you people??? If people would; a) use their brain, 2) stop tailgating and iii) slow the hell down we would all get to work with no deaths, injuries and without it taking hours. Oh and if you think it will take longer get up EARLIER!! instead of trying to drive faster in bad weather!
Some days I am truly amazed that we as the human race have managed not to kill ourselves off completely already. The level of stupidity that we demonstrate in our day to day lives is in complete opposition to the technological advancements we have accomplished.
Oh and while I am in the mood to rant. I am all for the PC gov't and fiscal responsibility but I have to draw the line at this boondoggle they've created of evacuating people from Egypt!!! In my opinion, even if the Prime Minister's oath of office does not explicitly state that he is to protect the citizens of Canada. Should it not be the primary focus of the Government? And all the Government can manage to do is charter some flights to somewhere in Europe and is charging them $400. on top of that they had to pay an airport tax/bribe to get on the plane? I'm not saying we should spend $94 million to evacuate them but maybe we could find a happy medium here? The Government state there were 6000 Canadian citizens in Egypt. I'm guessing someone in the private sector who's head isn't stuck up his posterior orifice could find a solution without bankrupting the country.
Well that's enough for now... hope you all make it to work in the morning.
