Try Elizabeth !

In the last week end, i observed many things. There were many subjects of interest. I did nothing special but i observed. There are week ends like that. I watched some sports on television and i watched the news. First, i watched hockey saturday. I love hochey. Being canadian it's kinda' normal. I watched a game between the Boston Bruins and the Carolina Hurricanes. The Bruins are the team of my childhood. When i was about 10, i started watching hockey on tv. Boston had a solid team and i fell in love for the Bruins. Saturday they won 7-2 and the game was exciting and full of fights. It reminded me that era when i loved the Bruins. I know, fights are violent and many people hate the fact that there are fights in hockey. Sometimes i think it's stupid too but i must say that it's exciting ! That game reminded me of my youth and of that time when i dreamed to go to live in Boston someday. Ah ! Dreams...

This week end, we also saw our Prime Minister of Canada sing during a fundraiser night in Ottawa. He sang " With a little help from my friends", of the Beatles. For the first time since many years, we have in Canada a Prime Mimister who looks good on the international scene. Quite a contrast with those who preceded him, like Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin. And mister Harper sang that song very well ! I can say he's talented ! He surprised me with his way of singing like Ringo Starr, who sang that song many years ago. Let's keep our Prime Minister ! He leads a minority government always on the verge of being reversed. I am sure we are better off with him rather than with those who want his place.

I also learned about the massacre of the dolphins in Japan. A group of hunters in Japan capture dolphins in Japan to sell them. They capture a lot of dolphins and keep only a small group and massacre the others instead of releasing them. They were filmed doing that and a movie has been made to show the horrors those japanese commit toward the dolphins. Incredible all the indifference of the human beings for the animal life. More should be done to protect animals everywhere in the world.

The Afghanistan war continued to be in the news all week end. I still think that this war is a lost cause. My country, Canada is squeezed in that conflict until 2011 and here in Canada, people are impatient to see our troops out of that war. There are fights in Afghanistan but the real danger now is in Pakistan. Our troops and those of America and many other countries are in deep trouble in Afghanistan but those who control that strange taliban power are in Pakistan and nobody really touch them. There is even a threat that those terrorists could soon control Pakistan. I have a friend who is in Afghanistan right now, fighting in the canadian army. He is in constant danger fighting for reasons hard to define in a country where even the russian army broke it's teeth. Those who are there right now will break their teeth too, even if they received the help of thousands of soldiers more, you can bet on that.

I also watched some football. Canadian football and NFL football. Yesterday i watched the game between Indianapolis and the Seattle Seahawks. I was looking at the Seahawks being crushed by the Colts, in the absence of Matt Hasselbeck. It seems that the Seahawks are unable to do anything good without their star quaterback. Like his brother does not seem to play anymore, i was telling to myself : " The Seahawks should try Elizabeth ! She is a Hasselbeck too ! And she succeeds at all she does. And i'm sure she has a good arm too !" Yes try Elizabeth before she comes back on "The View".

That was my week end. Nothing very exciting but full of strange thoughts. I'm sure the new week will be full of events to tal about. Anyway i want to write more about the massacre of the dolphins in Japan. I love animals and we must do all we can to protect them.
