The Lion has arrived!

G'...(wind)...day....(wind)....every...(wind)...one!

I'm trying to hold on to my desk! Finally shut the window! *bam!* It's so windy out there it's obviously March 1st, 2010! The Lion of the weather has arrived! Wow! How soon will it be Spring? Almost at anytime when the weather pattern shifts soon. So hang on to those coats and boots. It will warm up soon!

Meanwhile, Canada will be in a little hockey dog house for a while with USA. So will the refs who were on the ice. How many calls were BLOWN that Sunday afternoon? One too many. I'm betting when those refs sit down and look over the long hockey tape, they're going to wish they had done better. But history will judge them rough. Canada will have to be a bit more kinder to the USA hockey team for a while.
For the women's hockey team? Me thinks that their gold medals ought to be stripped from them at the moment they stepped back on the ice in full public view (despite the building was empty) with cigars and beers and continued their celebration that started in the locker rooms. That was the most unhealthful and disgusting thing to see. Despite their public apologies, those women hockey players better go cold turkey on smoking and drinking for awhile.
The next time Canada hockey team faces USA team again, they better be prepared to go home more black and blue than before. That said, an ambulance better be standing outside the hockey rink!!

With the Winter Olympics over for another 4 years, it will be quiet for a while. As the world turns back to solve their problems, we all turn back our attention to focus on our own problems in the nation.

Thankfully, the dreaded Tsunami didn't happen too badly recently. But we should take warnings seriously. We all have been fortunate in the world and should thank God for it. Continue to pray for the people of Chile. Recovery efforts will take a while.

till next post.
Semper FI.
