Caught a Skumbag!

Hank Van-Til, 67, was driving from Grand Falls to his home in Little River, west of Hillsborough, on Monday when he saw a pickup truck hit a doe, sending the animal into a ditch.

After pulling to the side of the road, Van-Til saw the deer was pregnant.

Van-Til fetched a knife and performed a Caesarean operation on the doe, something he'd learned how to do while working with cows.

He then delivered the baby, took the fawn back to his truck, laid paper towels down and sat the animal in the cab.

Realizing the deer would need food, he took an empty cup and milked the dying mother, then fed the baby animal using his fingers.

Yesterday, the Department of Natural Resources seized the baby deer – which the man has named "Dickie" – and launched an investigation into the matter.

Under New Brunswick law, it is illegal to take an orphaned animal home and care for it without a permit.

Wow, good thing our government is protecting us from monsters like that. I mean they do stop groups like this, but that is nothing compared to stopping someone who would save a deer.

Cloths on the Line

This is a story from April but I just discovered it just today and was blown away by the law Ontario had decided to finally get rid of. I have heard of some ridicules laws but not letting people hang their clothes up has to be in the top 10. Maybe my joke about us not being able to eat chili unless its on a Sunday and there is a blue moon could come true. I certainly hope not (I really like chili). I thought the cell phone in the car was an example of the government overstepping its boundaries but this was just nuts. Well that’s all for now.

Communists they’re Every Where!

Riding home on the bus today (argh) I happened to hear the conversation behind me. The kid was talking about how they supported communism and its ends (really ARGH). Unfortunately this is not an isolated incident in my classmates. For example in my social class a kid behind me (why are they always behind me?) also says he supports communism and its ends. The teachers are just as bad, not exactly communists but definitely socialists which is not much better. Even after all the evils of the Soviet Union have come out some people still want to support other countries like it. If the next generation grows up believing Stalin’s way of governing is the best, and that the evils of capitalism are uncountable, what will come of the world? Our freedoms will be given up for a system of government that is nothing more than a theory based on wishful thinking.

It's Time To Switch To Whiskey

Well I recently went with a friend of mine to see Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans in concert. In a few words, the concert was absolutly amazing. When they first came on they started with a trumpet and the drummer coming out. He then played the snare drum until everyone else was up and they proceded to play "I Want to be in the Cavalry". It was very cool.

The Double Standard

Sorry I would write more but my knuckles are sore from dragging.

No More Talking

The provincial governments of Quebec and Nova Scotia are following Newfoundland and Labrador's "groundbreaking" lead in banning cellphone use while driving. Another step toward the bleak cliff of tyranny. I love it when our governments tell us what we can and can't do. This instance seems trivial compared with what they could try to do. But I believe that we should not allow them to have any gains in oppressing our freedoms. If we let them get away with this what stops them from saying we can't eat chili unless its on a Sunday and there is a blue moon or installing a one child policy. Maybe the jump from cell phone bans to one child polices seems like a gigantic leap. I fear that if the temptation is there, they will deluded themselves into believing it is for the betterment of the people so it should be done. If we are unwilling to make a stand now to protect our freedoms when will we?

This Is Tougher Than We Thought!

Now I admit, being at an age where our school careers are almost over, things can get a little hectic and we are forced to push aside other things. This regretablly prevents us from being as current with our posts as we would like to be. But bear with us faithful followers, we shall try our hardest to stay current with the events of the world. And thank you for staying with us this far.
