Life's little surprises!

This morning when I woke up, I checked my bank account to make sure I have enough to cover rent, which is coming up in a few days, and I magically find a $56.00 deposit from the Government. Thank you Government, you have now given me a bit of cash to get me by until my EI kicks in, if it ever does....oh and thank you Government, for making me wait over 4 weeks and counting to potentially get EI benefits that I have paid into for 10 years and never claimed....Give me my money, biatch!

I know what I'll do today!

Woman Mauled by Polar Bear

Source: AOL.com

Posted: 04/13/09 8:05AM

(April 11) - A woman stunned onlookers by jumping into a polar bear enclosure at a zoo Friday, suffering serious injuries after one of the four bears inside attacked her.

Zookeepers at the Berlin Zoo fought off the attacking bear from outside the enclosure as they pulled the German woman, 32, to safety, Britain’s Daily Telegraph reported. The woman, who jumped into a moat in the enclosure, suffered serious bites to her arms and legs. In December, a man who jumped into the same enclosure also survived after zookeepers baited the polar bears away with beef. It was not clear why the woman jumped into the area.




HEY People!!!! Polar Bears are nasty animals, they look cute, fuzzy and adorable, but they are one of the only animals who will hunt a human, and if they find you, they will kill you, or should I say mutilate, then kill you. Why on earth would you jump into an enclosure with 4 of them? Apparently some dude did the same thing last year. What's up with these Germans?

I just wanted to say...

That I love this band, and song.

Dammit Panthera!

So Haley sent me a link to "how bizarre" by OMC on Youtube, I cant post the video cause it doesnt allow embeding. So funny. WHich reminds me that my buddy Dave had sent me a funny link last week. So SO funny!



Bevis and Butthead will always be funny!

Employment stats.

Or should I say, Un-employment Stats.

Jobs I have applied for: 77
Interviews: 4
Offers: 0

I'm losin the game here. I have to add, that about 45 of those jobs I applied for in April, and most of them don't close til May 1st-ish. So there's hope.
I never thought it would be this tough to find a job, I had 4 offers during the first month, when I moved here in August.

In other news, I feel confident saying that the Flames have won their past 2 games, not because I checked the scores, but because the amount of screaming, yelling, honking and woohooing I have heard outside my apartment from the pubs on 17th Ave.

Thriller a la Lego!

JUST AWESOME



I'm sure most of you will get bored pretty quickly, a nd what you really want to see are the Zombie lego men dancing in rows so skip ahead to the 8 minute 15 second mark to get your fix. The whole thing is worth watching though. The amount of work that was put into making this video is amazing.

This is why I love teh 80's so much!

Sophie Tucker, the dog.


By Richard Shears

When Jan Griffith's beloved dog, Sophie Tucker fell overboard from her family's yacht she feared her pet had drowned. But Sophie Tucker, a grey and black cattle dog, wasn't going to give up that easily. The determined pet swam six miles through ferocious shark-infested seas to an island, where she survived for more than four months by hunting wild goats for food.

Sophie Tucker fell overboard in rough seas and swam through shark infested waters to safety. The extraordinary story of the castaway hound emerged today when Miss Griffith was reunited with her beloved pet. 'I thought I'd never see her again, but she's proved to be a dog who can really look after herself,' said Miss Griffith.

Sophie Tucker, named after the American vaudeville comedian, fell overboard from the family's yacht when they ran into bad weather off the Queensland coastal town of Mackay. Miss Griffith and her friends searched the area, putting their own lives at risk in the rough seas, but there was no sign of Sophie Tucker.

Unknown to them, the dog swam towards remote St Bees Island, a quiet volcanic strip of land fringed with reefs. Sophie Tucker swam six miles to reach St. Bees Island.
On land there are rainforests and dense grasslands where koalas and wild goats live.
A handful of people living on the island reported seeing a dog running around, but assumed it was a feral animal.

When the bodies of several young goats were found, locals contacted wildlife rangers and word of a dog on the island reached the ears of Miss Griffith and her family. 'We wondered whether it could be Sophie Tucker but thought 'No way'. 'She would have had to have swum through five miles of sea to get there and then work out how to survive. 'It just couldn't be her, we decided, but when we were told the dog had been caught and they were bringing it to the mainland we thought we should have a look.'

They waited at the marina as the rangers' boat came in - and there in the cage was a grey and black dog. 'We called her name and she went crazy - whimpering and banging on the cage, so they let her out and she ran over to us and almost knocked us over with excitement,' Miss Griffiths said. 'She's settled in well back at home now. I think she's appreciating the air conditioning.'

Locals said it was astonishing that Sophie Tucker had not been attacked by sharks. Even though she was lost inside the Great Barrier Reef, which tends to keep sharks away from the coast, tiger sharks and hammerheads do swim through the coral - and dogs are at particular risk. 'The smell of a wet dog is irresistible to a shark,' said a fisherman. 'You don't often hear of dogs surviving if they decide to go for a bit of a swim. Even a big fish will have a go at their legs.

'So for this dog to swim for five miles or so, and then swim a bit between islands, is incredible. She's a very lucky animal.'

How cute is this story Erinne?
