A crock of you know what

That's one what caller said today when talking about the new Enviro fee that must be paid on things like televisions and DVD players. I don't have a problem with it at all - provided it is going back to recycling these things. We've had a free ride for a long time, we can't just dump stuff and just forget about it, it's not realistic anymore! I like saving money as much as the next person, but sooner or later someone has to pay for the lack of environmental concern in the past - and apparently, that's us!

One thing that drives me nuts is oil heat. Honestly, I've lived in Calgary, Windsor, London and overseas in Hamburg, Germany and I had never seen or even heard of oil heat before I came to Halifax. Honestly, it strikes me as totally pioneer. The government has to give incentives to people to switch over to things like natural gas in order to really stick it to the oil companies that are gouging! People have to get over this fear of natural gas. Like I said before, if you put a match in an oil tank, that's going to blow too.

I can't wait to come to work tomorrow to see what happens with this O' Connell drive business. Hendsbee's nice and all, but he messed up royally. Simple solution - his slush fund (discretionary funding) should be put towards the final tally, end of story.

Gary Carson is so awesome, don't you think? I told him I love when he's on, but I get so angry listening to the state of the schools. No spelling? No times tables? It's scary. I mean, some of the kids are going to be doctors who will have to take care of me when I'm old and decrepit. Scary!!!!!!!!!

Something Rick and I were talking about after the show when we saw some exit polls from Ohio - GO HILLARY!!!! I'm not sure Barack Obama has the substance to be the president. I honestly believe it was Hillary's destiny to be the President. Go, Hillary, go!!!!

Alright....lunch time for this kid. I believe it's an all open show tomorrow, so I hope you all have horrible days so you can call and tell us about it on the show. I mean that in the best possible way!

Cheers,

Amber
