Canada Line whinging

Only in Vancouver would people find something so damn trivial to whine about. Come on people, we have this brand spankin’ new high speed transit option for us and what’s the first press that I read about it? People complaining that the signs for the exits are labeled as 'Way Out' instead of ‘Exit’. Are you freakin' kidding me? Have you ever traveled outside of North America? Or perhaps you are slow-minded and you think that ‘Way Out’ could possibly mean something else instead of the way out like oh I dunno, newspaper stand? Washrooms? Give your head a shake and find something worth complaining about already.

Johannesburg and T-berg

Because my regular GP up and abandoned his practice a year and a half ago leaving me sans doctor, I have no choice but to frequent the various walk-in clinics here in the Couv whenever I come down with something and am forced to queue with the sick masses. 99% of the time I have noticed, I end up with the most drop dead gorgeous looking doctors and most of them are South African for some reason (I get the political and safety reasons why they come here.) I must say though that I can’t friggin' wait for flu season this year!
