Stuff

Hmm, looks like Cheney won slightly in the Vice Prez debate, and it sounds like it was pretty evident him and Edwards didn't like each other, but really, everyone is looking to see whether Dubya can bounce back from his drubbing last Thursday.



Hmm, Dido is coming to Brissie, would consider going, but the tickets are over $110 - hmm, I mean I like her music, and she is hot, but not THAT hot LOL. Mmm, Angelina Jolie, I would pay much more than $110 to see a 'concert' of hers - mm and to be in the front row LOL, sorry, male fantasizing there :)



The Canadian Navy got a new submarine, courtesy of the Brits, on Sunday - two days after setting sail from Scotland to Nova Scotia, the power cuts out. Wonderful eh, no hockey and another sub breaks down LOL. No power means no stabilising of the ship, therefore lotsssssss of rolling and dipping and stuff. Nine crew with smoke inhalation injuries, but well enough to be treated on board - shuddering remembering the Kursk sinking, more submarine thoughts...



Where does the name Chicoutimi come from anyways? Some Iroqouis chief perhaps? Off to google LOL. First (translated) page is that it's a town in la belle province... somewhere in the Sageunay (sp?) area - hmm that name is familiar... where's mapquest LOL. Oh, north of Quebec City... oops, must drag my eyes away from what might have been - tours of the Atlantic provinces, or maybe a trip to see the Red Sox at Fenway (or hmm the Patriots more likely LOL) - snap out of it Pauly... and especially stop mapquesting around Ottawa... :( what might have been...



Anyways, the playoffs are underway in the baseball, Minnesota, Boston and St Louis take first blood in their series. Now that the Mets are out, I'm hoping Boston do something in the post season.



Hmm, reading an NBC affiliate report on the Veep debate - Edwards said the Americans were taking ninety percent of the casualties in the war, Cheney came back with well it's only fifty percent, since the Iraqi security forces are getting killed as well. Rolling my eyes here, what sort of defence of the war is that - oh, let's just double our casualties so that the percentage looks better LOL. And that was a good line about Edward's inexperience, the Dem basically saying if what we have had the last four years is experience, count me out LOL (what he actually said was do we need four more years of 'this kind of experience', just to clarify the CORRECT quote LOL).



OK, reading further into the debate and everything, maybe less a slight Cheney win as a draw - Cheney may come out better because he may have staunched the damage of Grumpy Boy LOL. Edwards comes out well from the reports I am reading.



Okies that's enough for now :)



Later taters
