What happened at the Spirit Square in Campbell River is beyond my comprehension. It is because I was not there to see and view for myself the torch relay celebration. Although it is nice to know that the school teacher of my daughter informed me that they went to that venue to watch the on-going relay of light, fire and flame. Yeah whatever you call it. Several people called it torch light, torch flame, torch of fire. It has the Vancouver Olympic logo and the style and design is so unique that some of the torch light or flame bearer auctioned them on Ebay. The torch light happened to be made by Bombardier - the maker of modern airplanes and train. How much they will get from it is beyond my dislike for people who do not value the importance of objectivity or sentimentality. How many of us who think that those torches are valuable to your integrity as a participant-volunteer for a cause. You don t have anything to eat anymore that something very sacred and sentimental you have to sell * It is weird to know.
However maybe these people are not really for the Olympic Games. Maybe they are part of those people or group who tried to dismantle a special kind of sports that people around the world never take for granted. If you people do not want to have the torch here in Canada why you need to have the Olympic Games here.
Thinking later on maybe some people have no other means to provide drama and attention that they created few cheap spectacle to themselves. Unfolding drama of controversy. Yeah auctioning the torch will create controversial issues. Money makes the world go round and the value of the Canadian Olympic Torch would create a hoopla of fun. It really depends on everyoneès thinking and opinion. Go ahead with your own soap drama.
Just yesterday a TV News featured about story that Whistler Resort hotels and condominiums there do not have much customers. Not too many vacationers to fill up their almost empty rooms. Maybe because the value of the room accomodation is way too much costly. It is in Canadian dollars. Also it is way too early to be there when the Olympic Games starts on February 2010.Then showing the mountain so green and no snow it makes you wonder whether the reporter is telling us the truth. It is November now and just last year when there is so much snow on every mountain in Canada to have no snow at this time of the year is absolutely a kind of shock for so many environmentalists. The climate change has affected us one way or another and somehow maybe Mr. Al Gore is correct with his personal assumption regarding the ''Inconvenient Truth.''
Year 2009 now rightÉ When you can have an ice pond just right there at the convenience of your backyard. Production of snow is not really a problem for those people with millions of money in their bank account. You only gain financial revenues in millions and billions when you invested in millions. You cannot invest $10.00 and gained one million. Oh wait, yes you can have such investment if you buy a lottery ticket. But thatès one in a million chance.
Everything in this world is about trade and commerce. Even when you think two very much in love individuals are in love and suddenly when they finalized they have to get married the gap sets in. Firstly, for the groom to give an official dowry to the family of the bride. The budget for the wedding ceremony such as the bridal clothing and accessories of the whole complete entourage, reception, honeymoon, and other miscellaneous that go with the nuptial. Every sum of money that was used for all this pompous solemn ceremony cannot be done without capital.
That is the reason why too many practical people would rather not get married and opted for live-in arrangement. Who is the loser in that situation you may ask. Your children. Then another individual would lamented that marriage is no longer sacred nowadays because after two years or the next years the couple will end up in divorce. Then here comes the homosexuals getting married just to show the world that they value the sanctity of being married and the vows that go with it.
There are many losers and winners in this time of the year and it only depends on your mind thinking on which side you preferred to be associated with.
True to what the famous geneticist Watson said that '' Intelligent women can marry for money.'' What about those with beauty and brain that would be too much for a rich guy to contemplate.
