A Canadian Haunting, Volume Two

Previously I posted about a BBQ sauce-wafting spectre in my new home. Since that post, the mystery smell no longer frequents my place. I believe this is because the ghost (if thats what you would call it) has found what it was seeking: acknowledgement on a blog. Clearly.


More importantly . . . . Happy Birthday to the MasterMind behind Mutton!! Love you :P

I'm celebrating by listening to pirate music! Not stolen music; music by the Buccaneers! A particular song called Sailing to Alberta . . which I hope to do to see you soon.

Beijing 2008

The 2008 Olympic Summer Games are a hot topic lately. The international consensus is that China needs to improve the human rights within their country and seriously think about freeing Tibet already. The Olympic Games have brought these issues to center stage and I don't think that is a bad thing.

Boycotting the Olympics could potentially do more harm than good. No matter how right the world may believe the message is, delivering it in such a negative way will probably not sway China the least bit. The Games are an opportunity to begin candid, meaningful communication between China and the international community. It's an opportunity that should not be wasted. Messages on banners strung across bridges in the U.S. will reach the government in China but probably be passed on as 'Keep Tibet' by the media to the Chinese people anyway.

The games should go on, even just with the hope of sparking comraderie between the world and China, so that down the road they will hear what we have to say.
