Outrage of the day (week, month, year?)

I don't know what's worse. Knowing that the largest lotto jackpot in Canadian history ($54 million!) went to a bunch of hicks, or knowing how they are going to blow their new wealth...

"I drive a 1983 Malibu," said Dean Parker, 28, a field operator from Killam. "I think I'll be replacing it with an Escalade. I don't have to worry about the price of gas anymore."
...
As for the winners themselves, Harley- Davidson's, new cars, houses and children's education topped wish lists.


Fucking small-minded ignorant hillbillies and their obsession with material status symbols. I wonder how much these douchebags will give to charity. Or how much they'll use to better their community? I'll bet a helluva lot less than they'll blow on trinkets. I'm also willing to bet that a few of these people will be dead broke in a few years.

Meeting people is easy....

...blogging/finding a new apartment is hard.

Yeah yeah yeah. So, to recap for those of you in the back: turned 29 (an occassion marked with an impromtu and wholly nonconsensual merlot shower), spent a week in Montreal (which warrants its own post, but $5 bucks says that won't happen), came home and shortly thereafter learned our rental condo is getting sold out from under our feet, leaving us in need of a new pad or else look forward to a very homeless New Year. Is it time to Go Condo?

So yeah, the last month can be summed up in one paragraph. Boo-urns.

Developing: T.O? (see November 14)

Revision

Okay, on further reflection, the "Juicebox" single isn't as bad. Could be a grower.
