Eagles in the City
"Totally tops Spirit Bears and those Whales. I hope they honour the first people's of this land with a Harry Potter eagle". I hope they honour 9/11 peoples with a crying American Flag eagle that blasts the Battle Hymn of the Republic in glorious 16bit sound, while an animatronic eye weeps tears of Iraqi blood into a heart-shaped pool (make that Iraqi dog blood).

Hunters to cull hundreds of trapped narwhal. Fun!

Dog's nose for whale poop big help to B.C. orca researchers. Like I said yesterday, from now on everything is going to be cute. All. The. Time. LOOK AT HIS FACE HE IS SO HAPPY!!!

Actual conversation with older brother:
"Hey did you hear, the world's oldest living polar bear died"
"No it didn't"
"That's good, you should just use that reply for everything".
"No, I mean, there is still an oldest polar bear alive, always".

Farming just first step of local food system in Metro Van. There is also charcuteries, don't forget the charcuteries.

UBC caught in economic meltdown. Campbell came in and unfroze tuition and UBC invested it all on shady hedgefunds. What's next? Are we going to find out that Translink lost a million playing the market? Slowly we are reaping the effects of the neo-conservative ambition of dismantling every social safety net we built to protect ourselves since the great depression. All in the name of "less government". Meanwhile they ride massive surpluses on a man-made wave of deregulation and speculation; only to end up back at the beginning, having to bail out banks and the Big 3. Now everyone votes for the left wingers and they come along and rebuild everything while the corporate media attack them for overspending. Soon enough the shiny new right wingers, promising tax cuts and armed with the latest moral outrage, are swept back into power. Repeat ad infinitum.

Meanwhile, It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that bling. "That could be the new 2010 theme song for the B.C. government after yesterday's discovery that Premier Gordon Campbell has been handing out gold medals to Olympic construction workers". Campbell replied to attacks from NDP MLA Mike Farnworth saying, " the New Democrats don't care about construction workers who toil in the rain and cold to get the 2010 venues built on time". Like those foreign Canada Line workers? Like those hospital workers whose contracts you tore up?

Local bloggers denied entry to 2010 press briefing. "I think it was the I love Surrey pin"
