New songs

-------------------------------------------------------->
There's a couple new songs in the music folder
Neil Young and Pearl Jam - Scenery
It's a FLAC file and it's 60 Mb

Chico Science & Nação Zumbi - Computadores Fazem Arte
It's a MP3 file about 6Mb

I saw Nação Zumbi in Rio last week, it was amazing. They had 5 drummers, a bassist, a guitarist and Fred Zero was singing through a sampler, so after he sung something, it would record in the sampler and he would be playing it back in slow motion or with tons of reverb and shit. I've never heard anything like that live.

Election Result

In my opinion the NDP party won the election. Neither the Alliance or the Liberals have enough seats to pass any bills. If they want any bills passed the will have to get the NDP seats on their side, which means satisfying Jack Layton's wants.

As for the GST cut. That's the stupidest thing I have ever heard. A 1% cut in the GST? That would involve changing over thousands of older machines, not to mention a shitload of administrative work. For what? %1 GST cut. Yay Harper, thanks for saving me 1 cent on my can of coke.

Swearing In

Hmmm, I wonder if Steven Harper will have a indian purification ceremony at his swearing in like Paul Martin did. Maybe the Alliance has something else planned.

Election Day

I woke up this morning and saw Lynda Robertson on the news. She said that it was very important to vote, especially in this election. How could I not of voted after such a omen. So I went voted for the green party, then I smoked a joint.

Sidebar: I never actually saw the guy putting the ballot in the box. I gave it to him and he said "Thanks guy" and he just kept it in his hand. I started to walk away and looked back to see if he put put it in the box. I didn't see him do it though. I was thinking he might have just put it in his pocket if he didn't like who I voted for.

Steven Harper


Do you really want this man to be the next leader of your country?

Congratulations

Congratulations to Chile on being the first country in the Americas to elect a female prime minister. I saw a news clip of her driving her own car to cast her vote, I thought that was pretty cool. Let´s hope that States doesn´t back a coup to murder her and install a brutal right wing dictator like they did the last time a socialist prime minister was elected in Chile.

Nice Waves

A nice swell started to roll in the last few days, so the waves have been sweet. The water on the other hand is cold as fuck for some reason. You can´t stand more than an hour in the water without a wetsuit. The were some locals shooting fireworks at people they didn´t know on the main peak. Leticia´s brother told after, I just thought it was a celebration of the good waves. hahh.

Canadian Politics

No posts....Summertime and the livin´is easy

With the election coming up I thought I´d decifer Canadian politics.

Conservative Party = Tax cuts, which means less government spending or more debt.

NDP = Government spending, which means higher taxes or more government debt

Liberal party = A little bit of both, and a little in Paul Martin´s pocket

Green Party = The 3 other parties sucks.
