On May 2, 2011 there is a Federal election here in Canada. I was playing with this Vote Compass a few days ago. Turns out I'm in kahoots with the Green Party. Check it out, and don't forget to vote. Ok, so I promise this isn't a pushy blog, you know with the environmental hoopla below, and now encouraging you to vote. Although you should vote, just sayin'.
So I'm going to tackle one or two things from my list in my cell phone... I have something noted in there recently that just reads "rocks in desert". I should be more specific when I'm writing notes, because I can only remember that I think I was watching something a few weeks ago about mysteries and stuff, and these round rocks were listed. I don't remember the place or what the solution was to the round rocks and how they got there. But weird huh? I wish I remembered more, I think it was in the US. All I can find are pictures that look like what I saw on TV, but I can't be sure if there is just one example of these rocks or more. The world's huge, I wouldn't be suprised. This person's vacation blog shows a picture of what I'm talking about somewhere in South America. Random!
I should point out that some of my interest in the Earth topics may stem from the fact that I did Chemistry in high school and not geography or geology or anything like that. I did first year geography in university, and it sucked. I don't know why it rains, or about currents, or highs and lows. My main squeeze, hereby known as JB (loves ya!), taped a show about how the earth was formed. I was blown away. No wonder we're getting hit with volcanos under the ocean, can't be suprised it's been happening literally forever. Anyway. Did you know that oil we use now are dead fish from ages ago? And coal are trees and plants? Ok so maybe you've known since grade 9, and I'm the dork who only just realized this in the last 2 months. It was DELETED before I could finish the end of it. What exactly humans evolved from, now I will never know! ;)
I saw the Star Wars movies, but don't quiz me on anything. I heard a while ago that Mark Hamill had an accident (or something) and needed surgery on his face and that he looked different from one movie to another. I made a note to look up before and after photo... here it is!
Check out my friend AMES who's getting back into the interwebz: AMY O!
Whiskey VS Scotch. I don't drink either of those, strickly a rum cooler kind of gal (or vodka or gin or basically anything that isn't a dark liqour or beer. Ew, hops). I don't believe I ever inquired about what scotch is exactly. Scotch is whiskey but made in Scotland. Simple enough, I suppose. With some differences in how much of what is in it, or something. I'm taking this off the list now.
Sometimes I put in videos that I want to look up, clips from shows or news or sports. JB can testify that my favourite things about sports are the highlights and random facts and tidbits from the announcers! I'm always asking about "funny" things that happen in sports, i.e. "Hey... Are there any funny face-offs in hockey?" :) Anyway, here is a video of Charles Barkley's terrible golf swing. It's worse than I could have imagined!!! Seriously? I only play golf half-assed and even I can recognize this is not good. Although perhaps I should give him credit, maybe the swing sends his golf ball to all the right places. Let me know, I will think differently of his skillz, but right now, thumbs down!
Toodles!
