I don't feel bad about it
Nov. 9th, 2008 09:58 amI have a former coworker who I used to talk to all the time and I've kept in touch with. For years she's sent me nothing but funny jokes and videos but since about this time last year she's sent LOTS and I do mean LOTS of these horrible political forwardings, hate just oozing out of them, very very ultraconservative (which frankly in the three years I knew her, i never heard her talk like this)
I asked her more than once to knock it off. Finally I got hold of the www.palinforpresident.org (or was that com...) and sent it and she went off. So I said now you know how i feel when i get the half dozen emails from you a day. I told you to STOP IT so why do you keep doing it.
Bet I ruined someone's sunday morning and I don't feel bad. I guess the real reason is why the hell haven't I blocked her before (because I really hate doing that) If she ever speaks to me again and sends me one more thing that isn't happy kittens doing fun things, I will do it. As if I'm ever really going to see her again.
back to writing. I'm going to the write in at Athens. I'm really excited to be honest.

Granted, they've only got two train lines, but they're fairly long. And I'm astonished (and proud) that Calgary, in the heart of oil & gas country, did this.
When I lived in Alberta, we had the option of adding just a little to our utility bills each month, to be devoted toward development of wind power in the province. Now I hear they've got the greatest amount of wind farms in Canada.
And then they've got almost unrestricted development of the Tar Sands... it's a multiple personality province, heh.
