…and golf! It really is October, right? I wonder if any researcher has ever run a statistical analysis of the correlation between weather conditions on E Day and the success rate of incumbents? Share and Enjoy: Trashy, Ottawa, Ontario

Trashy's World: Holy ozone, Batman!
So the ozone layer over the Arctic wasn’t really, uh, “there” earlier this year. And that’s a bad thing, boys and girls, because this very thin layer of our atmosphere protects we mere humans from harmful solar radiation. And maybe even aliens. The mean kind. With ray guns. Of course, the Harper Government is all […]

….as PEI can welcome another Grit government for 4 more years! Congrats! And, as a sidebar, the Cons kept true to form in using personal attacks during the campaign to try to gain political advantage. The premier used most of his victory speech to condemn the personal attacks he says he suffered at the hands […]

Yeah, yeah… I and everyone else was off base last time when all of we so-called “pundits” tried to pick the outcome of the May 2 election. And I have learned my lesson and won’t do it again. …. NOT! I love trying to predict outcomes of elections! Back in the old days (before May […]

I’ve asked this before but…
TORONTO! WTF WERE YOU THINKING? Were most of you drunk last fall????

… vote for an MPP who stands with a party that will NOT GUT CHILD CARE in Ontario! But if you want Harris redux and the cuts to child care, education and health care that went with it… then by all means mark an “x” for Tim and Randy. Who needs schools and hospitals, anyway? […]
Continue readingTrashy's World: Two stories…
One about an ex-Harris henchman who now toils for a guy who pulls levers behind the curtain at 24 Sussex… And the other about a guy that is so blasted partisan that we will cut the reference to his own country and one of the greatest PM’s who ever lived – because he was from […]

Never have seen one of these abominations before. Gotta run out and spend it on something I can flush down the toilet!

When I was a municipal pol back in the day, I didn’t have a whole lot of use for MPP Eves, but he did watch out for his constituents – much like Norm Sterling did. So it is a shame that Hudak’s right-hand hick man sees it fit to slam one of their own… BTW […]

Gee, these so-called debates are becoming more and more irrelevant with each passing election. Really now, because of the long period of time that Ontarians have had to cast their ballots (great idea, BTW… it’ll be interesting to see if the turnout is bumped up) and the lateness of the debate AND that these things […]

Why do some teenage boys wear ball caps with the stickers still on the brim?
Anyone? Is it a gang thing?
Just wondering…

But, of course, they’ll have to be driven to the polling stations. Saudi King Abdullah announced on the weekend that Saudi women will be allowed to take part – vote and run for office – in the 2015 local elections. Of course, they are still not allowed to drive. That would be way too much […]

I particularly like the last paragraph on the BBC 4 site:
“…without statistics we are cast adrift on an ocean of confusion, but armed with stats we can take control of our lives, hold our rulers to account and see the world as it really is….

And it destroyed 2 tomato plants and some mint!
