Before my rant, the reason: 'Hush' over Afghan mission must end: Kenny
Updated Sun. Sep. 20 2009 12:52 PM ET CTV.ca News Staff
Liberal Senator Colin Kenny says politicians are too afraid of offending soldiers and their families by questioning Canada's role in Afghanistan, but it's important to have an honest debate about the mission.
In a recent op-ed column in the Ottawa Citizen, Kenny called Afghanistan Canada's Vietnam, a war that lasted for more than a decade and left nearly 60,000 U.S. dead. But Kenny pointed to widespread allegations of voter fraud in last month's presidential election, a thriving drug trade in Helmand and Kandahar provinces and the recent passage of a law that allows for marital rape as signs that the mission in Afghanistan needs to be reevaluated. How much do you agree with that comment ?
If that answer is yes, feel safe cause you're among the majority. Yay you!
But you're also a HUGE part of the problem in where we're going wrong and lemme tell ya why.
First, you do not parachute your sons and daughters into some far off land to take lives with every chance they'll lose their own in the pricess, have that indeed happen... THEN ponder the wisdom of it. Fact is we're not world policeman, never wanted to be - barring hockey we're the peacekeepers. the people that show others the higher path.
Sadly the decision being make it's not the time to be queemish, one could question the wisdom of it but I'd take that a step further and ask what would pulling out now be telling the families of those who've already paid the highest price. Surely we can't be a country that sends our own full of the bravado of serving mankind in the name of peace, king and country, to die... for what amounts to folly and an oops. Sending your troops in at the same time as pondering 'hmmm...' is never a great morale booster either. Get off the f*ckin' fence, and support.
Second, 'Canada's Vietnam'. This is not Vietnam, this is not the 60s, different time, different country, different people, different enemy, and omg if i hear ONE MORE Canadian who whines about a 'lack of national identity' compare ourselves to something American again i'm gonna hurl; we are not America so stop comparing apples and oranges.
I'd question how many American's even know we're in Afghanistan, at their request.. or even know we're in Afghanistan to the extent we are at all. Tough knowing this and watching comedy shows like the one that had this whole country irate poking fun at Canada's tin soldiers and our lack-of-a-military - if this is Canada's Vietnam just remember who we're there for.
The only similarity between the two is our wanting to win the 'hearts and minds' of the people... omfg aren't we dillusional.
Lemme get this straight, we got such a hate-on for Muslims it's ridiculous, how many times have we heard 'you can't really tell who the taliban are', we'll take a village, declare it and everyone in it safe - then a day or week later we return to our bases, in the process leaving the villiagers to their fate at the very hands of those 'unseen taliban we even know are there, somewhere...' and we hope to win the hearts and minds? Is it just me who sees the flawed general election in Iraq (i think Lassie won) realizing we're doing a lousy job winning, much?
We kinda missed the bus.
The only way we can win this, is by getting serious as opposed to half-assed.
You can only win a war, by taking land and disarming them... own their every streetcorner. Period.
You will suffer casualties, you will kill, innocents will die.
It is said this war is unwinnable, win in Iraq and the terrorists will just move to Afghanistan. Win in Afghanistan and they'll just move to Pakistan. If this is true, perhaps we're righting the right war, the wrong way.
Sounds like Canada and the USA are joining forces, well GOOD. We can't win by pointing the finger at countries like Germany who hisitate in getting involved, or at ourselves wondering if we should be there... time to get a firm resolve, respect eachothers skills talents and what each brings to the table - and kick some taliban ass.
We DON'T want to be the first to pull out, that even sounds sooo wrong.
SUPPORT YOUR TROOPS by being as strong, we don't turn our backs on anyone who needs us.
Lets not do it to ourselves.
July 26 back, with a vengence =~.^=

Greetings :p
Yes to quote a much overused phrase my demise was greatly egaggerated. Three jobs, summertime, another online distraction...
I'll be cleaning up this blog, taking out the trash (you know who you are lol) and back with a vengence :))
Summer has been INCREDIBLE as summer's always are - winter I don't like cause it's too damned cold plus christmas is for kids and people with family still alive, nights get shorter and the days get frosty in autumn and there's no joy in that, spring is cool cause it means summer. Canadian winters SUCK.
Just got back from 3days in Harrison Hot Springs, mmmm a hotel with A/C and four pools, the weather hotter than Hades, Harrison Lake a 30 second walk from the hotel, and god knows I needed the R&R. I hope Rhonda & Ruth enjoyed it too *chuckles*
We're getting the house renovated - a new room added-on, all the electrical replaced, walls punched out, new roof, we're even getting a new skylight window... I just hope the people who live above us won't mind. We sooo need the room too; I got a roommate, she has a daughter who's 11 and a teenaged son with a hair/appearance obsession - jez just try getting any bathroom time in... pity me. I figured why fight it, I'll just not bother and explode when I turn 40.
Vancouver had a MAJOR thunder and lightning storm last night, woot how i LOVE storms! Two people were hurt in Maple Ridge, collateral damage from standing too close to a tree when lightning hit. Amazing people still need to learn from stuff like that - lightning... anything metal or wet or tall = not a good mix.
It was a father and son too - thanks Dad.
Well peoples, time for a store run... I'll be sure to add to this entry as the days go on so don't be a stranger!
Peace love and happiness, unless it's Qwaywood in which case I hope the lobotamy was a success dude... only you would proclaim a blog 'dead' then reply to it five times.
Kinda ranks up there with being on the 'phone and getting a "this number is not in service" recording then calling that number back - knowing nobody's there - repeatedly. OMG i laughed, party on bud.
'Til tomorrow.... :))

I got tagged !!! Jez it's been ages since I've seen a tag game on Spaces, I remember one "naughty tag" game that I was in - I even had some christian woman comment "you're discusting". Nothing like posting in big huge bold underlined text "for mature audience only" and having someone read it - only to get offended cause the content was for a mature audience. I mean if you put up a wet paint sign, do they touch it to see if it's true then bitch to the painter? Guess these are the same personas who look at an accident scene to see if there's anything so gross it'll make them hurl.
Anyways this one is totally tame - I got tagged twice so thank you Miss Tamara and ♥~♥ApЯiL♥~♥ for letting me play !!!
The people I tagged are listed underneath - and contrary to the rules I pass it on without obligation... obviously I hope you take part but at the same time I'm not going to suggest what you should or shouldn't do on your own blog. It's all meant as fun. Enjoy !
THE RULES OF THE TAG ARE:
Jack had a blind date with Jill for the prom and, as the evening progressed, he found himself more and more attracted to her.
After some really passionate embracing, he said, "Tell me, do you object to making love?"
"That is something I have never done before," Jill replied.
"Never made love? You mean you are a virgin?" Jack was amazed.
"No, silly!" she giggled. "I've never objected!"
One day, while walking to the store, I passed by a nursing home. On the front lawn were six old ladies lying naked on the grass. I thought it was a bit unusual, but continued on my way to the store.
On my way home I passed the same nursing home with the same six ladies lying naked on the lawn. This time my curiosity got the best of me and I went inside to talk to the Manager.
'Do you know there are six ladies lying naked on your front lawn?'
'Yes,' he said. 'They're retired prostitutes and they're having a lawn sale'
The wife says to the husband, "Why do you carry my photo in your wallet?"
"When there's a problem, no matter how impossible, I look at your picture and the problem disappears."
"You see how miraculous and powerful I am for you?"
"Absolutely! I see your picture and I ask myself, 'What other problem could be greater than this one?'"
An elderly gent was invited to his old friends' home for dinner one evening.
He was impressed by the way his buddy preceded every request to his wife with endearing terms - "Honey," "My Love," "Darling,", "Sweetheart,","Pumpkin," etc.
The couple had been married almost 70 years and, clearly, they were still very much in love.
While the wife was in the kitchen, the man leaned over and said to his host, "I think it's
wonderful that, after all these years, you still call your wife those loving pet names."
The old man hung his head. "To tell you the truth," he said, "I forgot her name about 10 years ago!
Mildred, 93, was despondent over the recent death of her husband Earl, so she decided to just kill herself and join Earl in death. Thinking it would be best to get it over with quickly, she took out Earl's old Army pistol and made the decision to shoot herself in the heart since it was so badly broken in the first place.
Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a vegetable and a burden to someone, she called her doctor's office to learn her heart's exact location.
"Since you're a woman," the doctor said, "your heart is just below your left breast. Why do you ask?"
She hung up without answering.
Later that night, Mildred was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound to her knee.
Some men in a pickup truck drove into a lumberyard. One of the men walked in the office and said, "We need some four-by-twos."
The clerk asked, "You mean two-by-fours, don't you?"
The man said, "I'll go check," and went back to the truck. He returned and said, "Yeah, I meant two-by-four."
The clerk said, "All right. How long do you need them?" The customer paused for a minute and said, "I'd better go check."
After a while, the customer returned to the office and said, "A long time. We're gonna build a house."

Some friends and I were kicking back at the beach a few days ago, maybe it's cause I was the only guy but they started talking about guys and the silly things guys do.
In my own twisted way here's basically the wazzup with what they figure:... i'll title it :
MAKE WOMEN THINK YOU'RE A PERVERT IN SEVEN EASY STEPS
7 Things Some Guys Do That Make Women Think They're a Pervert, for the most part their words: Hang on, boys. Don't get all defensive - I'm not here to point fingers and call you all out as a slobbering, drooling, certified perverts. I'm just trying to open your eyes to some usually well-meant and harmless behaviors even the most well-intentioned guys sometimes do. Why? Because although I know you mean well, our perception outweighs your intent. And you don't want to be perceived as a pervert, creep or loser, do you? This is inside information, just for you.
Yes, I know by this point you guys are thinking about what sex with us would be like, and yes we're curious about you too. But you won't make it to dessert - let alone the bedroom - if you decide it should be one of our first conversations. Your best bet is to wait until we've had a few dates. but who knows, you may get lucky and I may bring it up myself sooner than you think. The key here, boys, is patience.
....so, at least i'm now enlighted - at least by bad example hahaha. Best get rid of those playboys. Wonder if handcuffs on the bedposts apply.

METEOR SHOWER IN THE FORECAST
If you live in my backyard of British Columbia you're in for an intense meteor shower.
August brings the Perseids, one of the year's most famous and enjoyed meteor showers. Due to peak just before dawn on the mornings of August 12 and 13th, the Perseids are expected to put on a great show for Northern Hemisphere skywatchers.
Most Perseids are bright, yellow meteors, with speeds around 36 miles per second and average brightness of +2.3 magnitude. Expect to see several fireballs, which frequently leave trails of smoke and many times explode midway. As many as one meteor a minute may be seen streaking away from the northern part of the constellation Perseus, near the border with Cassiopeia, the Queen.
ON THE LIGHTER SIDE...
Drag your mouse between the stars for the answer :
I am a rock group that has 4 members, all of whom are dead, one of which was assassinated. What am I?
* Mt. Rushmore *
What is the longest word in the English Dictionary?
* SMILES, because there is a mile in between the two S's *
How can you drop a raw egg onto a concrete floor without cracking it?
* Concrete floors are very hard to crack! *
Why do black sheep eat less grass than white sheep?
* There are less black sheep on the planet. *
I just received a spam entitled, “Make You’re (male private part) the Size of You’re Entire Body!”
Ignoring the atrocious punctuation errors, this message is troubling on several levels. First off, I’m six-foot one inch. Having a male private part of equal length could pose some serious tactical issues.
I suppose though I could prop it up in the passenger seat and place a hat on it's head and always use the carpool lane.
FREE SEX WITH FILL-UP
A gas station in Newfoundland was trying to increase it's Sales so the owner put up a sign saying "Free Sex with Fill-up."
Soon a local Newfy pulled in, filled his tank, and then Asked for his free sex. The owner told him pick a number from 1 to 10, if he guessed Correctly, he would get his Free sex. The buyer then guessed 8, the proprietor said, "You were Close. The number was 7. Sorry, no sex this time."
A week later, the same redneck, along with a buddy, Pulled in for a fill-up, again he asked for his free sex. The proprietor again gave him the same story, and asked him To guess the correct number. The redneck guessed 2 this time, again the proprietor said, "Sorry, it was 3. You were close, but no free sex this time."
As they were driving away, the Newfy said to his buddy, "I Think that game is rigged and he doesn't really give away Free sex."
Newfy replied, "No it ain't Billy , it's not rigged, my Wife won twice last week."
