Politics or Politicians ....who's guilty??

I guess the real question is whether people go into politics with the greatest ideals and simply become skewed by the position and the power.

Well, I think more likely than not most politicians get into politics for the right reasons and simply want a stronger hand setting the agenda in the place they live. What I think happens is a lot of people start looking at what they can get out of the position, what perks they can get, and taking advantage of everything they're offered, and then forgetting that they entered politics to make the world a better place.

With that said, let's get rid of the Senate ..... what's it called?? The House of Higher thought .... something like that. What's silly is the amount of days they sit, the amount they get paid, and how people get elected .... it's all WRONG.

I won't get into it lest to say they get overpaid, work too little, and they shouldn't be elected based on there political alliances.

Anyways, What's the story about the Chairman of the TTC Adam Giambrone(Toronto City councillor ward 18)? So this guy, all being told isn't doing a good job with the TTC, and decides to enter the race for Mayor of Toronto. His first Boo boo was a silly promotional video, produced with his team, telling the City that he's ready to lead/run Toronto .... what a mess, certainly shouldn't have been done by anybody looking to be taken seriously in politics.

What came next was a young lady showing texts about a relationship she was having with Mr Giambrone ..... What's odd about that is he's being shown in "photo ops"with "his live-in partner of many years" even when the affair was going on. So he sends the other girl a reply text that reads "You know I will be announcing I have a partner, It is someone named Sarah (McQuarrie), who I've been involved with in the past. It is important for the campaign" WHOOPS ...... and with that he pulled out of the race HA HA! Good, did we really need somebody that isn't up front with us running the City??

I kinda wonder though ....... could he have been any worse that David Miller is right now? ......"The devil you know" I guess:)

Goo

OK, been busy:)

Wow, what an interesting couple of months!

Christmas was great, had it at Allison's house, and it sure was nice to not spend hours cleaning up:) Even when you live with somebody else there is no promise that person will help, so it gets sickening when plates get pushed in your direction without an offer of help. SO thank you very much Al!

Avatar ..................84% ...... if only for a better story

OK OK not the greatest movie ever, and it goes to show that money making isn't the greatest indicator of quality, but the 3D was amazing.

Are you saying "What chu talkin bout Goo, it was fan friggen tastic", well don't hold it against me, while the visuals were ground breaking, the story was only good NOT great! What's funny is I heard a few people complain about the minimal 3D. I was like "What ........chu talkin bout, fool?:) .... What I think disappointed some people was the 3D was "realistic", and not"in your face" like so much 3D from years gone by. Where people would stick their hands in the camera and thing would fly by your head.

Am I happy about the move to more realism in #D?? Bet your ass I am!

By the way, Zoe Saldana was AMAZING in the role of Neytiri, but it's too bad the Academy doesn't tend to Honour motion capture even when the acting was amazing.... ODD!
