QUOTE OF THE DAY : "The Liberals are the flying saucers of politics. No one can make head nor tail of them and they never are seen twice in the same place." - John Diefenbaker

SONG OF THE DAY : Chemical Brothers Feat. Q-Tip - Galvanize

LINK OF THE DAY : How to eat Sushi.

Set honour in one eye and death i' the other,
And I will look on both indifferently.


This tsunami catastrophe is unreal. Word is the number killed or missing will rise to over 100,000 people. That doesn't include the impoverished survivors who will die from disease and dehydration.

But of course what's the first thing I see on CNN.com today. Celebrities Survive Tsunami! Thousands of non-Americans are dead, and what's the first thing they report today... OH ARE OUR PRECIOUS CELEBRITIES ALRIGHT!

Every loss of life in this horrible disaster is a tragedy unto itself, and just part of the already staggering death toll. I feel sorry for everyone hurt, injured or killed in this, but I'm not praying for some celebrity... I'm hoping everyone comes out okay.

I'm glad Jet Li is okay, I'm hoping that Supermodel Petra Nemcova recovers from her serious injuries, my heart goes out to the family of Richard Attenborough... But the scale of this human tragedy is just too big to care WHO these people are. The fact of the matter is : they ARE people, and thousands of them are dead or missing.

This whole thing is just unreal.

Now I'm going to sound like a jack ass for even mentioning a few extra things.

New banner up top in case you can't see.

Also check out the link of the day : How to eat Sushi. I only had sushi 3 times this year, compared to 40 or so times the year before, I'm in need of a good feed.

Hungry for sushi, and depressed about this whole tsunami thing.

Ways to help with the tsunami relief.
