So its Hump Day today. Got a lot of work done. Tomorrow I have to pound it harder. Whitehorse will be fun. Basically arrive to work ready to go and take off from there. Pete from Kingston was trucking in Edmonton last night. He got to Wisconsin today.
Will AJ Burnett stay with the Blue Jays? Not to bloody likely. He pitched strong tonight. Even tipped his cap. The poor old Jays who have looked oh so good at the end. They were the best team in baseball for a eriod. They were beating all the teams they had to beat. Thought for a second they could run the table like Colorado.
I think I may have mentioned this before, but Gerber and the Sens are going to be real good. The Jason Smith pick up is pure genious. Smith is die hard rough and tumble hockey player. He'll skate on 1 leg no problem. Kuba is a huge pick up as well. Kuba has no leadership responsibilities heaped on him. He can just master his already solid game.
Stamkos is the real deal as well. He'll produce and contend for the Calder. Hockey is fortunate of the draft system and eligiblity concerns. Rookies seasons in the NHL are great to watch, especially with a healthy batch of playes who can make an impact immediately.
Dennis Bevington the MP for Western Arctic should be voted for in the upcoming election. He has a voice in the parliament. I'm sorry but I just don't see (Brandon Bell PC) fitting the position at this moment. Bevington deserves to stay. The Liberal party leader is a woman that generally has no buzz. And Sam Gamble of the Green Party and he is young.

MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
WELL IT IS ON RIGHT NOW BUT I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE SCORE IS. ITS MONDAY, THEREFORE ITS PROJECT RUNWAY. I'M SITTING AT THE TABLE LOOKING AT A PICTURE OF ME WITH THE NWT LICENSE PLATE. THE PLATE ALONE IS AMAZING.
I'M ALSO PLAYING POKER RIGHT NOW. POKER HAS BEEN VERY GOOD TO ME. ALTHOUGH I DO PUT A LOT OF TIME INTO IT. BUT COMBINING EVERYTHING TOGETHER I'VE WON ROUGHLY $10000. ALL I REALLY HAVE TO SHOW FOR IT IS CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS. BUT I GUESS THATS ACTUALLY NOT A BAD THING.
I RAN 5KM AGAIN TODAY. UNDER 30 MINUTES WHICH IS A NEW PERSONAL BEST SINCE I STARTED WATCHING MY TIMES HERE IN YELLOWKNIFE. I CAN GO MORE. IT WAS BASICALLY A 10 MINUTE MILE PACE. NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

Ryder Cup Saturday
So here in Yellowknife on a brisky day. I ran over 5 1/2 miles today in 60 minutes. I think that is pretty good. And I also applied to college yesterday. The States seem to be leading right now. They have been hitting a l oy of puts. They have been clutch.
I got my hair cut earlier today. I think it turned out pretty good. I hate the fresh cut. You look like a dweeb for at least 7 days. I look in the mirror and all I can see is the new dew. Hair cuts suck. But the staff is nice. We baby sat a cat for a couple months earlier. Buddy had his entire jungle gym with him. Good times with the cat. But also some really annoying times. Poor neighbours must have thought we were starving it. He had such a bullshit meeeooowww. All the way down the hall you can here him.
Hockey season begins fairly soon. The Sens I think are going to surprise a lot of people. They are geared up and ready to go. Gerber is prime time this year, not Emery or general disractions. The trouble makers have been sent packing. Much like the Leafs who had to explode the dressing room up to start a completely new team. This team also I think can turn some teams upside down. Teams can bounce back really fast if they are given a fresh start.
Jeff Finger has to know that he is the luckiest guy in the NHL. His miracle contract will have eyes on him at all time. All he can do it play. But lordy if he sucks then Fletcher will take the heat for that one. It is deemed that he may not of even been worth $1 million a season. He is getting 3 + a season. Calling it right now. Ian White is better then Jeff Finger.

NOT HUMP DAY
SO TODAY WAS THURSDAY AND IT WAS A FAIRLY PRODUCTIVE DAY. I DID RUN ANOTHER 5KM TODAY BUT NOT TO MUCH MORE. I REALLY HAVE TO HIT THE WEIGHTS MORE OFTEN. SO YOU THINK CANADA IS ON TV RIGHT NOW. THE ANNOYING LADY FROM THE AMERICAN VERSION IS ALSO REPRESENTING THE AMERICAN HE HA.
ARE CANADIAN DANCERS BETTER THEN AMERICAN? I THINK WE HAVE A REALLY GOOD TALENT POOL TO DRAW FROM. EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE ONLY A FRACTION OF PEOPLE TO DRAW FROM. PLUS THEY PUMP SO MUCH MONEY INTO THAT TYPE OF THING. THE AMERICANS PUT SO MUCH MONEY AN EFFORT INTO ALL SPORTS. GOING TO A HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAME IS AN EXPERIENCE I'M SURE.
IN WORLDY NEWS TODAY, WE MIGHT HAVE WET SNOW IN THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS. WHAM THE SUMMER HAS LEFT AND FALL IS QUICKLY TURNING INTO FULL FLEDGE WINTER ACTION. MY BOSS SIG, IS WINNING SOME MAJOR NEWSPAPER AWARD/HONOUR IN THE YEAR FUTURE. THE PAPER IS GREAT PLACE TO WORK. THE ROAD TRIPS THAT ARE FULLY PAID ARE AMAZING.
I'VE BEEN TO INUVIK TWICE NOW.

Back From Hay River
So its Monday and I was in Hay River on the weekend. The Hay River Trade Show. Wasn't to bad. Met some people.
But other then that lets get to politics. Canada and the United States are both now headed towards elections. That should be interesting. Can Harper and crew lead the way back to the capital? Will all the leaders visit Yellowknife?
I think they all should out of good nature visit the capital of all the provinces and territories and meet with the local representative. We in the North have a lot at stake as the Arctic is drastically changing for good and bad.
Over time and with the Russians acting the way they are, it should't be totally out of the question that we seriously have to worry abot the Russians from the high arctic. Nobody believes that we hold all the land to the extreme pole.
Do you know that the Fins can't stand the Russians. All the Scands are bickering back and forth. But they are a great bunch of people and are very similar to us in many ways.
Ice Road Truckers are the toast of the town in America. They love the show and call up North all the time looking for Alex Debadorski.

Yellowknife
DID YOU KNOW THAT PEOPLE IN YELLOWKNIFE HAVE TENT CITIES? IT'S SO TRUE.
I WAS WALKING DOWN A PATH THE OTHER DAY MINDING MY OWN BUSINESS, WHEN I SAW THIS PIECE OF PAPER HANGING IN SOME TREES. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION THE LETTER WAS FROM THE CITY OF YELLOWKNIFE INSTRUCTING THE TENT CITY HOBO'S TO TAKE DOWN THE TENT AND DWELLINGS OR IT SHALL BE REMOVED FOR THEM.
WELL IT HAPPENED. THE CITY CRANKED UP A NOTCH AND RIPPED TO SHREDS THE HABITAT OF A COUPLE. THE WOMAN BASICALLY HAS NO HOME AND LIVES ON THE STREETS. HER PARTNER APPARTENTLY CHOOSES T LIVE IN THE LAND, OR SHOLD I SAY CITY PROPERTY. HE SAYS THAT ALL HIS YEARS WORKING FOR "THE MAN" HAS MADE HIM WANT TO LIVE IN BETWEEN TREES.
WELL WHEN IT CAME TIME TO REMOVE THE TENTS THE WOMAN WAS HELD UP IN THE HOSPITAL FOR A BLOOD TRANSFUSION AND THE DUDE WAS WALKING AROUND PICKING UP CANS. THIS STORY MADE THE FRONT PAGE OF THE YELLOWKNIFER. AND IT GETS BETTE. THE VERY DAY THS STORY RAN I SAW THEM RUNNING AROUND TRYING TO SECURE GOODS BECAUSE EVERYTHING THAT THESE PEOPLE OWNED WAS PLACED AT THE DUMP. AND DUMP SHOPPING HERE IN YELLOWKNIFE IS A DAILY ACTIVITY FOR SOME SOME THERE LIFE POSSESIONS WERE GONE.
THE LIFE AND TIMES OF YELLOWKNOFE PEOPLE IS PRETTY FUN TO WATCH AND READ. PEOPLE ARE DRINKING IN THE STEETS AND DEALING DRUGS ON A DAY TO DAY BASIS. STORES HAVE TO LOCK UP LISTERINE BECAUSE IT IS THE DRINK OF CHOICE FOR NATIVES WHO HAVE SPENT ALL THERE RESIDENTIAL SCHOOL MONEY.
YELLOWKNIFE IS A CITY IN CANADA THAT CAN MAKE YOU A VERY WEALTHY PERSON IS YOU STICK AROUND. AND THE LONGER YOU STICK AROUND THE MRE LIKELY YOU WILL SEE A CRACK COCAINE DEAL GO DOWN.

ONLINE POKER
WELL I'M AWESOME. I DON'T NEED TO PROOF IT TO ANYONE, I KNOW I'M AWESOME.
NOT AT POKER BUT JUST AT EVERYTHING. I SOLD SOME LOGO'S TODAY. I COOKED MYSELF A 4 EGG OMELET WITH BACON, CHEESE WHIZ AND TURKEY.
FALL AND WINTER ARE SLWLY BUT SURELY CREEPING UP ON US HERE IN THE KNIFE. THE LEAVES ARE FALLING AND THE WARM AIR IS GONE. WE SHOULD HAVE SNOW ARRIVING IN JST OVER A MONTH.
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO INUVIK? YOU SHOULD ALL GO. THE MAD TRAPPER IS THE PLACE TO BE. AND CHECK OUT THE GUYS AT THE INUVIK DRUM OFFICE, TELL THEM NEIL SENT YA.
ALSO ON THAT NOTE IF YOU WANT TO PLAY WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP GUITAR HERO THEN YOU SHOULD STOP OFF AT THE DRUM OFFICE AND CHALLENGE THE STAFF TO A MATCH.
SUICIDE IS PRETTY HIGH UP IN THE TERRITORIES, YET THE MEDIA LIKE MYSELF IGUESS, NEVER REPORT IT. IT BRINGS DOWN MORAL, ESPECIALLY IN THE SMALL NORTHERN COMMUNITIES WHERE EVERYONE KNOW EACH OTHER AND THERE MOTHER AND GREAT GRAND-MOTHER.
WELL I GOT NOTHING ELSE TO SAY.
FILL ME IN ON WHATS HAPPENING
