we're getting it good. Were supposed to get about 20 centimeters or about 8" when its all over. It's suppose to let up sometime Friday. Its nothing like they have had in Buffalo last week.
Since its Thanksgiving day in the US there is NFL football. I put another Fan Duel line up together for 4 games this afternoon, I'm going to be following. Plus the Oilers are at Nashville for another beating. I'll be following this one. If they lose tonight, its going to be their 8th loss in a row. How Lowe can they go?
I've been following this Burnaby mountain pipeline story for awhile now. In Tuesday's Edmonton Sun, Sun commentator Ezra Levant published a expose of the "protestors" against the pipeline. I would have had a measure of respect for their efforts if the protest was a grassroots movement, however its anything but. These are professional protestors. Their beef against the Trans Mountain pipeline which would take Alberta oil to load oil onto tankers for market would be disastrous. Thing is Kinder Morgan has had a pipeline there since 1953. The protestors hate fossil fuels as they all drive up Burnaby mountain and fill the Simon Fraser University parking lot. These Pro protesters are funded by their non Canadian bosses, foreign interest's groups. Tides foundation and Forest Ethics (or their Canadian affiliates) fund tens of millions of dollars on their war against the Alberta oilsands but never against OPEC or Russian oil. Even the famous Canadian environmentalist for hire David Suzuki made a cameo appearance last weekend. Suzuki runs about $8 million/year out of Tides "charitable" number. He even took a jet plane from Malaysia to give a anti capitalist speach before returning to his multi million dollar home in Vancouver during last weekends protest. This was not a grassroots protest, it was a foreign funded attack pure and simple. Odd how we don't see the protestors during the week, only on the weekend. If I was still living there and able I'd carry a sign for for the camera. This protest funded by Tides.
I tried calling Best buy computer department but everyone is busy. Yep they (customers) all came out to pick up the computer I want in a snow storm. Most likely they are all out at lunch but if they don't have it I might have to wait until next paycheck. The only quad core pc's Future shop has are either $1000 + laptops or desktops. They have a few in stock and I'm about to put one on reserve. Anyway, that's all for now.
