Country:  | Here people do not give a sh*t for you if you do not have a car, they will run you over. A police car almost killed me the other day when he drove like a insane person. Glad you are OK mate.
My feet are killing me, and I must walk to work, but survive I must and will.

Country:  | Had an arguement with a Morroccan I work with about the US being the greatest democracy...
Some peoples are blinded by their Anti-Americanism, he was argueing that India (yes In-f*cking-dia) was *the* greatest democracy on Earth. And, according to him, every problem in this world are caused by the US and Israel... And then a 100% Québeker-born jumped into the chat and started to piss on Americans too. Hah ! Is there any American willing to adopt a 23 year-old security officer ? 
*Note to self* : Never try to argue with an Arab again. | |

Country: | Maestro I must say that a democracy is not the best thing always, it can bite you in the ass. All the types of government suck, but democracy works better. The US government makes decisions to make war not the people and I must give one thing to Israel, they do not take sh*t from those bastards, not always done "nicely", but effective.
Today has a funny feeling about it and it annoys me.

Country:  | I reduced my driving last summer and am now down to one tank of gas a week. I filled up last weekend and paid $3.07. I saw this morning that it is now going for $3.17 - $3.20 a gallon. I have gone from a 3.0 Liter down to a compact. It may be time to borrow my father's motorcycle.

Country: | Ha, join the club mate, I do not use the car any more due to the fuel price here in SA, it takes to much out of my pay each month.
I must work in 2 hours time and I have not had a little bit of sleep, had a thing at a friends house and there was beer, friends and a lot of fun.

Country:  | Some 14 years ago, people found parts of an airplane in the water in the Biesbos, a nature preserve some 5km from here. It became clear that it concerned a Boulton Paul Defiant, which was shot down om May 13th 1940 in a futile British attempt to help the Dutch. Of course it was a great find. But today I learned that this historical wreck ended up on a old metal yard, not far from my home, and was made into cola tins or whatever they make out of old metal. Makes me sad.

Country: | A few weeks ago, I sent a copy of my book as well as several other things in a package to the BBC... To the only address I had of the BBC, their "Writer's Room".
Today, I just received the reply... A nice and short letter from the BBC with the complete package (my book, media kit as well as the letter I wrote (see below)... Everything !). In the BBC's letter, they say (in short) : "If it's not a script, don't bother sending it to us."
Hah ! I bet they didn't even read my letter !

Dear sir/lady,
First of all, I want to say that I looked all over the BBC website to find the right address and I only found that one. So if I’m addressing to the wrong person, please forgive me and please forward this package to the right person.
My first book (an historical fiction) was published by PublishAmerica. Yes, that’s right ! I’m a French-Canadian who, after being turned down by many French and Québec publishers, finally got published in the United-States.
You’ll find attached to this letter, a media kit with more information on my book and on me. (You will also find my contact info in it.) I also included a copy of my book in this package for your convenience.
Thank you for your time,
(Signed with full name and address.) | |
