Yes, there may be some issues to solve…

And yet, all behaves like it should. Hmmmm

Not making much sense … must dig deeper

Zombie Zeitgeist

What Godzilla is to the Japanese psyche, Zombies are to the American. Or so claims this article.

In both circumstances, the monster is meant to be a physical representation of a deep seated fear of the choices made by society, often due to directions and abilities of technology.

Wonder why the “Toxic Avenger” hasn’t caught on then …

Car Sales in August

barista — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 14:48:24 +0000

The trio of brands that has continually outpaced the rest of the industry this year – Subaru (up 51.51 percent), Kia (up 60.38 percent) and Hyundai (up 47.01 percent) – continued their winning ways and then some, each reporting all-time sales records last month thanks to a boost from the C4C program. To put their success in perspective, Hyundai and Kia together outsold Dodge, Jeep and Chrysler and Subaru outsold rivals Mazda and Volkswagen.

Kudos to Hyundai-Kia for blazing up the charts as a powerhouse, and to the tiny Subaru just showing how much a good design and technology matters. Props to AutoBlog for tracking this information monthly.

And “they” say that Canadian Healthcare is something the US should aspire to…

Well, Jeremy has a story to share about it. I acknowledge it.

Can someone please fix Canadian Health Care please ? Could we have perhaps a federal standard on health care ? Oh yeah, right, Provincial Purview. Frak.

I just hope we deal with the Swine Flu better this fall …
