Blog in 7 minutes:

This one I call random thoughts, because it's just going to be a smash em up of random thoughts (like this blog normally isn't). Here we go (HWG):

- I thought about the lyrics to Great Big Sea's Consequence Free song from way back. If you know the song I'm talking about, this will make much more sense. If not, I don't have the time to explain or give the lyrics. Anyway I think it's extremely irresponsible and detrimental for Great Big Sea to be wishing these things. The band wants to be in a world where nothing seems to matter or there are no consequences. He talks about wouldn't it be great if the band just never ended. Yeah that's great and all, but what about the 20 rapes and murders that just happened outside of the club. Thanks Great Big Sea for your terrible terrible dream world!

- I've been posting lately about the book of awesome. As awesome as it is to think of those awesome things, I also think it's equally important to look at crappy things that make you say 'Aww maan, COME ON!'. Like one scenario I always have is when I'm in the washroom, I'll put toothpaste onto the toothbrush, and then for whatever reason hope that the brush will lie perfectly still on its back while I put the toothpaste away. That never happens! Next thing you know, the toothbrush does a barrel roll, and gets the fresh toothpaste onto my bathroom counter. And another thing, why is it that this damn toothpaste is so hard to clean off of these surfaces? Is it really a good sign when something we use to clean a part of our body is a pain in the ass to get off of surfaces?

- My xbox stopped working, got the old red ring of death. The amount of options I'm now presented with make me laugh:

1) Buy a new Xbox 360 = -$300

2) Buy a ps3 + Buy a new Xbox 360 so I can play GOOD games = -$550.00

3) Get my xbox repaired by some shady dealer on Kijiji = -$40

4) Sell my broken xbox parts to the other shady dealer on Kijiji = +$30

So wait, I can somehow make money out of my electronics malfunctioning? Why doesn't the shady guy from option 3 just get together with the shady guy from option 4 and start a business? They could call it "Nigerian Prince needs your Xbox, so he can give you fortune".

- That last section took too long with the = $ - and + signs. Symbols were never my strong suit for typing except for colons and brackets :)
