Armageddon Me

Yesterday I made a little post about the U.S. and the war against Iraq. The only commenter on that entry, Maggie, left a link to a quite disturbing site if you are one of those people who get easily impressed by religious and extraordinary propaganda talking about the end of the mess, the Armageddon (in the New Testament, great battlefield where, at the end of the world, the powers of evil will fight the powers of good).

Take This!

Administrator: Beatriz, send your hours to Ottawa for your check.
Sales Guy # 1: Na na na! Now we get a fix pay check!
Sales Guy # 2: Yeah! No more sending time sheets.
Bea: Yes, but when we work extra hours I get paid extra and you don’t :tongue:
Sales Guys: *silence*

He he he! Being the only woman in the office, I feel like a winner :wink: And! I have a new rolling chair that is taking me all over without any problem. I’m actually a little clumsy in it… he he! Never mind, I think I need some rest.

On another note, for the person doing the search “What Does Joie de Vivre Mean”: It means joy of living, the spark of life, the daily happiness, the will to live. :smile:

Ok, and this was sent to me by Elisa. Remember my Sept. 11th post? Ok, no more political discussion, but this is funny

Lovely season

Found in Cyberpresse: “The autumn is a melancholic and gracious andante which admirably prepares the solemn adagio of the winter.” –George Sand

For Montrealers (and other Quebecers): Quoi faire pendant l’automne? And for Canadians: Canada Reads. Interesting project! Great selection of books by Canadian authors to discuss.

And last but not least, have you seen the new look and content at Google News? Kewl!

It’s quiet here today…

Reasons for Love # 2

Why do you love him/her? This is Reasons for Love, my new meme. Every Wednesday I want people to share those simple, but significant reasons that make you love your partner more everyday. If you decide to participate, please feel free to leave a comment with the link to your entry.

And don’t forget to check Jess’s Affection Connections, a group log, the mommy of my little meme.

I love Patrice because:

� He saves me the cream cheese bagel before anyone eats it.
� No matter how messy I am he always tells me that I’m beautiful.
� He laughs at my jokes even if he finds them really stupid.
� He imitates me all the time and he makes fun of me :wink:
� He encourages me to do things I like and should. He boosts my self-esteem.
� He tickles me often to make sure I have my daily dose of laughs.
� He gives me ideas to post in my blog :sweat:
� When we’re watching a movie like Top Gun, he says “That Johnny Depp is great!”, LOL!
� He finds it cute when I pronounce the wrong word in French.

Taste the Rainbow

So, Mr. Bush has changed the alert from Orange to Yellow. I hope americans won’t be scared again when he decides to play with the colors of the rainbow and his famous alerts that look like one of those games where you hit the bottom and the ball goes up to touch a bell. What’s it called?

I was reading last night that it would cost about 200.000 million dollars if the U.S. attack Iraq. Holy Mary Mother of God! That is like a lot of money that could be used doing something good for the human kind instead of chasing that Saddam guy. I was looking at the results of a poll this morning in CNN Headline News, and 57% of the people don’t think the U.S should attack Iraq IF the inspectors don’t find weapons of mass destruction. I think it’s going to happen anyway; in fact Bill Graham said that they could start the attacks in February 2003. Sick!

Now, non-related to Bush and his campaign against terror, but found at CNN: To Blog or Not To Blog. The same thing… talking about celebrities, like Wil Wheaton, who blog and yadda yadda. But the community is definitely growing and they put the whole blogging business very simple.
