Vancouver Stanely Cup Riots Part 2 12 years later

Congratulations Vancouver, we are now the centre of worldwide media attention. Not for the beautiful scenery, the wildlife, the great weather we've been having or even for how our economy is still managing to do well alongside what is now a global financial crisis. Yes, the real estate market is still nuts but houses are still being built and people are still working. All that aside, none of those are why Vancouver, BC Canada is at the top of Internet searches all over the world. So much are we in demand, there is a Facebook group looking for pictures of the on-goings in Vancouver last night. So why all this hype? Well, in case you didn't know.




Aside from being one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Vancouver is also home to some of the dumbest a$5h0les in the world. You know, those professional protestors. Losers and hooligans with nothing better to do than to search for things to protest about and incite violence. Yes, I am talking about the Stanley Cup Riots. Now don't get confused, I know Stanley Cup Riots happened back in 1994 after a Canucks win. There have also been riots and vandalism throughout the Vancouver area as a result of many things including the 2010 Olympics, housing issues, and various other topics which apparently justify violence in the minds of the pea brained unemployed 5h!t for brains looser professional protestor crowds.

So what was the reason for the latest Riot in Vancouver? Why is the world media plastered with pictures of burning cards and broken windows in Downtown Vancouver? Well, you see, there is this thing called the Stanley Cup. Apparently, not winning the Stanley cup, or in the case of 1994, almost winning the Stanley Cup is cause for violence. Oh my god, the tragedy in the world when the Vancouver Canucks loose a game. This is awful, lets flip over some cars and set them on fire.

Come on people, get a fvck!ng clue. IT IS A GAME. There are plenty of other things happening in the world. People are starving, governments are suppressing their citizens. The biggest concern in Vancouver right now, well aside from housing prices, is the length of the Starbucks line-up or maybe traffic. Not that many of these loosers and bums who rioted are concerned about housing prices or traffic.

Honestly, I really don't know what to say about the Stanley Cup Riots in Vancouver or all those pictures of burning cars and Broken Windows plastering the world wide media. I don't understand the mentality of those losers involved in the 2011 Stanley Cup Riots of Vancouver. This does not mean I am at all surprised there was a Riot after Vancouver lost the Stanley Cup to Boston last night. After all, this is Vancouver, the protest and idiot capital of the world. Oh ya, I'm a proud Canadian today. Fvck!ing A$$h0les!!!

Delta Cares?? - A Bureaucratic Lack of Initiative

Further to my earlier commentary on the damn snow and living in the "sticks" of Delta BC. It appears the requests of the neighbourhood have come upon deaf ears within the Corporation of Delta. Consequently, our worst fear has come true. Tonight as an Ambulance responded to an emergency call they got stuck. Yes, the very vehicle which is intended to save lives was hindered by the municipalities refusal to allocate enough money to a snow removal budget. I feel for the hardworking Paramedics and other Emergency Personnel whose tireless efforts are hindered by the stupidity of the local Bureaucrats. As we were out there helping the paramedics and firemen try to free the Ambulance, one of the paramedics mentioned this was not the first time they had been stuck in North Delta this evening. Hopefully the girl in the Ambulance is ok, but if it was me, I would be suing the Corporation. I have included a couple of video's of the event so those responsible could see the results of their actions (or lack thereof.) The length was cut short as I needed to grab my shovel and help. I thought it was important to document at least a little bit of the event.

Looking at the road conditions in the area, I am seriously wondering if the Lower Mainland (Particularly Delta) will be able to handle keeping the roads clear during the 2010 Olympic Winter Games.

9:18 PM PST There is a second Video, however I was having troubles uploading it. you can find it at http://www.htbwmedia.com/mvi_0366.AVI at this point I am still uploading it to my website server I will then try to send it to Blogger.

Politicians and Whales commonalities

Aside from the fact they are both oversized hot air blowing gasbags, they seem to have their own language. I am not responsible for the liberal use of the word "That" in the following article:

We know that they make noises, often highly complicated ones, and at some length. Some scientists have speculated that these sounds are, like the songs of humpback whales, designed to attract a mate or communicate over long distances.

Indeed, ordinary citizens also have a number of responses and calls they use to communicate with the political class; these sounds are almost as mysterious.

Now, after decades of exhaustive research, this paper is proud to present the first decoding of political speech, also known as "bafflegab."

- "The Canadian people do not want an election right now!"

Translation: Our party cannot win an election right now. We looked at the poll numbers, and too many people still remember that thing we did, with the bags of money and the squid. Maybe next year.

- "The Canadian people want an election!"

Translation: We are so going to kick the other party's keester. Everyone's so hung up on the squid incident they've forgotten about the time we gave all their SIN card data to that shifty guy.

- "This is the beginning of a new way of doing business!"

Translation: We are going to get into a pointless fight with our own bureaucrats.


- "We will stand up for the little guy."

Translation: Especially if he bought a $1,000 plate at that last fundraising dinner.

- "The era of corrupt government is finally at an end."

Translation: The era of corrupt government will now enter a brief hiatus. Expect resumption of corruption any time between next Thursday and two years from now.

- "Tough on crime."

Translation: We will introduce a bill that demands the death penalty for trimming your toenails in a public place. It will die in committee when the session ends for Christmas. We will blame our opponents for this.

- "Judicial activism."

Translation: We will now score political points by calling judges a lot of names. How can you trust someone wearing a black dress and a wig, anyway?

- "Environmentally friendly."

Translation: The environment minister's new car is a Prius. On a six-month loan. His other vehicle is still that SUV, of course. How else do you expect him to get his golf clubs to the course to play with the oil company lobbyists?

- "The government must listen to the people!"

Translation: The government should do exactly what my narrowly-focused pressure group says. If they do not, we will whine so loud it will make your eardrums burst.

- "We will use technology to communicate directly with the Canadian people, enhancing democracy and promoting unity."

Translation: You will never find our website. If you do, you will not find the page you are looking for. If you find the page, it will not contain the information you need. If you manage to leave a comment, it will be treated as spam.

- "This government has been the worst disaster to hit this country in decades!"

Translation: Please, please don't remember the last time we were in power!

- "Candidate X may seem stiff/awkward/nerdy, but in private he is warm and funny, a great raconteur, and a true gentleman."

Translation: He has not yet been photographed biting the head off a puppy.

Help Pick a new "Logo" for Surrey - Now this is just too fun to pass up

Now who comes up with this shit? I was flipping through the local paper trying to find something interesting. Among the typical crap like a front page story on the Mayor, some dog who had babies and a tiny article on Piggy Pickton I find this little tidbit on how Surrey is looking for a new Logo. Yes apparently the condom and handgun has lost its' market appeal. hmmm maybe a syringe in the arm of a turban wearing dagger wielding.... um what is the politically correct term for people from India anyways???? Oh ya Indo Canadian. Of course we can't forget to include road racing and gang bangers in the mix.




Considering a new wing of the Surrey General Hospital was recently named after some Sikh figure head of some sort and the 2010 Mascots look more like something from Asian saturday morning TV, It doesn't seem so far fetched. Of course we would have to make it more acceptable to the children, maybe add a Pokemon Tattoo on his arm. Oh hold on that would be Richmond.

Well if they run low on quality idea's I'm sure they could talk to those brilliant heads on VANOC to come up with some local appeal.... I'm glad I live in Delta, for christ sakes they are talking about making and selling T-shirts.
