Waiting and Playing and Thinking

While Im waiting for data to load and servers to become avaiable for more testing, I found this to play with:

Terrafly: allows you to map any coordinate and fly over the satellite photo in real time. How useful is this? Who cares! its just cool if you ask me.

I'm also thinking about something that happened yesterday. Al Zawahiri made another tape. 24 hours later, no one cares, its not even on the home page of any news organziation. When I read the transcript, he's clearly talking to us and not his Jihadi brothers. Why? I'll post my findings later this evening.


Oh, and President Bush is in Canada today. So what is on the CBC homepage? I guess its not news when there are no protests to cover.

Why do I like the President? He's going to Halifax to say thank you to the people there who helped our folks on September 11th. More on that later too...

UPDATE I: Quote from GWB:
"I'd like to thank the Canadian people who came out to wave, with all five fingers, for their hospitality," he said.

Heh...

UPDATE II:
Theres a weblog following Canadian Protests to the Bush Visit. Apparently, "Bush is Hitler, Eh!".

I havent found any links to protests of Castro,Aritside,Mugabe,Milosovich or Putin. I'll keep looking...

UPDATE III: Absolute.Freakin'.Brilliant.

UPDATE IV: From the great Tim Blair, Maple Powered Protest Photos!

You know what I like most about the left is how consistent they are. I also like how they are finally ready to fight Hitler, now that he's been dead for 60 years. I am a little disappointed that they seem to think everyone is Hitler, except Hitler.

After all, one mans genocidal maniac is another man's democratically elected socialist leader.

Update III - absolutely PRICELESS. This should be posted everywhere, but with an emphasis in the blue (ever so blue) states!

On update 3,the last sentence of the report is worded in such a way that giving the Conservative Party an edge is somewhat equivelent to child molesting or flag burning......If you're familiar with CBC at all this is just the business as usual. Although I must admit,most CBC listeners and Liberal Party members probably suport NAMBLA and flag burning.(particularily if it's American)

"I am a little disappointed that they seem to think everyone is Hitler, except Hitler."

The second most popular book in "IslamLand" (as opposed to "JesusLand") is "Mein Kampf". This little point eludes the left. But, of course, they're "reality based"...
