RANT

I don't know what it was today but I am in one of those moods where I feel it is time for a good rant. So here goes,

• When I walk into work in the College/Bay area I notice that there are a lot of goofy looking people. There are people who wake up in the morning and look in the mirror and think, "Man I look good". Truth be told if they are looking to make a Goonies remake or maybe a Goonies 2 then the casting department can stand at the corner of Yonge and College and there are at least 12 candidates to play Lotney 'Sloth' Fratelli. Moreover, I think they wouldn't have a problem casting an adult version of Lawrence 'Chunk' Cohen.
• On Bay Street they are building two condos that must 50 stories high. They have been building these condos for over three years. In order to build these condos they have put up fencing and barriers that take up one full lane of traffic. This company has expropriated the sidewalk and a lane of traffic for three years. When my car extends 3 inches out of my driveway I get a ticket.
• When we were negotiating our contract a year and a half ago the management board (Ontario Government) kept stating, "This is a 2% world". Sure enough we negotiated a raises in the realm of 2%. Since that time my property tax has increased 3% a year, gas has increased over 25% and now the Ontario Government announces that electricity rates are going up 17%. Based on my calculations, “it is at least at 15% world”.
• What is the difference between pants, slacks and trousers? It is a topic that worries me because if a car hits me or some other tragic incident befalls me I don't what to die wearing slacks.
