Top Ten

I find myself at the library again this evening. This time I'm situated beside two girls, who I would say are about 14. They seem to be doing some research for a school project or something, but I'm not sure if they are getting the material they are looking for because I'll I've witness them do is yell out the F-word, belch, and slam the keyboard repeatedly. Constructive work girls.

Today I went to work at 5:45am instead of 8:00am- nice work ass hat.

I read another intersting article in the paper today. It was the top nine most well know people in the world (heaven forbid they do the full ten). It was by a British agency, I'm not sure which one, but it must be legit because the list seems quite acurrate. Here it is in order from most known:
1. Simon Cowell
2. God (a close second I can imagine)
3. The Queen
4. Santa Claus
5. David Beckam
6. Jesus
7. Lewis Hamilton
8. Barak Obama
9. George Busch

Sorry Jesus, no top five finish for you this year, there is really no room at the inn this Christmas, expecially without your celebrity status to fall back on.

Are you kidding me- I don't even know who Lewis Hamilton is (looked it up- British Racecar driver). And Simon Cowell beat the likes of Santa Clause- well good thing he is stinking rich becuase after snubbing the man in red I'm pretty sure he'll have to delivery the presents this year.

After pondering this article for quite some time I then read the fine print at thebottom. Results from survey conducted with 1600 children under the age of 10. Here I am preparing for the appocolypse of the world due to one giant smiting of the Earth by the combined 2/5 finish of the Almighties when really these are the oppinions of British school children probably coaxed into answering odd-ball questions. But are these kids sniffing glue- Simon Cowell over Santa. Ya ya not every child celebrates Christmas- but all children long for Santa to come down their Chimney, even if they are busy playing with their dradell or confined to their windowless kingdom of god buildings for no celebrations what-so-ever. Give me a break. And Barack Obama and George Busch- pretty sure if I were being asked when I was seven or eight politicians would not be included and I'm pretty sure there would be a solid showing of answers like "my mommy & daddy"

This survey rocked my world.

Messages to pass on:

Hey rachel, I heard some part of Scotland is flooding. Is it anywhere near you? I worked at the kelowna Community theater tonight . The only thing worse than attending a school Christmas show that NONE of your kids are in is attending one totally in French. Welcome to my world ...It was very good for the parents though . the only songs I even recognized were when the saints go marching in, Jingle bells and Rudolph. The rest was a mystery-- I thought some of them were actually aborginal.Oh well next time I get to see Holly Cole. Take care Sounds like you are keeping busy Love you MOM
