Rants and Sadness

Rants:
It has been three years since the war in Iraq started,
Over 100 British troops have died, Over 2,000 American troops have died,
And over 100,000 Iraq people have died.And for what?
War on terrorism? oil?, or is it Bush wanting to rule the world?.
I know Saddam had to be stopped, but we should have just gone in there,
got rid of him and then leave again.I don't even think Osama is even alive now, there has been no word from him in ages.
Like many others out there, I don't like or trust George Bush, to me he is the tyrant that should be stopped,
he has committed crimes against humanity with this war,
and he must be stopped before he rules the world or destroys it.

With Great Sadness:
Andreas Katsulas who played G'Kar of Babylon 5 fame
died on 13th February of lung cancer he will be greatly missed.
G'Kar was one of best characters of Babylon 5 and
one of my favourite Sci-Fi characters.

Doctors and Mud!

It has been raining really badly the last few days that the
Water levels on the marsh land behind our house has risen and is
Now full of frogs and ducks, it really is beautiful.
Bought a pair of wellies the other day and Candy and I have been rambling round the farmlands around our area,
Candy even dragged me on too the muddy fields and jumping into the puddles.
It was fun!

Got my blood test results from the doctor yesterday,
I do have high blood pressure and
I have to take Beta-Blockers to reduce The levels.
I've got my diabetes pretty much under control now,
Don't really have any fizzy pop or chocolate unless if it is a treat
Which is rare now.
I've lost alot of weight and started to tone
Most of my body fat into muscle now.
So I am getting there.

Also had the results from my retinal screening
I had a few weeks ago to do with my diabetes.
They have found an anomaly behind my left eye
Which needs checking again in six months time
Very frustrating as I don't really want to Lose my eyesight,
kinda need it really!

Candy and I applied for a job at PageBet,
The new bookies that has just opened up in town.
Hopefully we will get the jobs, as we are getting desperate now.

Bumped into Al the other day, a gentleman who used to be the
Manager at Travellingman, my local comic shop.
He's doing well for himself now as a writer and he gave me
Some ideas and advice about my comic book.
I'm going to write it and Candy will illustrate it.
Got two ideas for a book already written out,
so hopefully Maybe next year Black Cat Press will start trading.

Life is Unfair

You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe.
