Unhappiness towards the low price of gas and oil in Canada? But you never think about how much you have to pay for your electric bill. BC Hydro bill is super high (rate) here in BC. No matter how much you save and do the helpful tips on energy consumption. I don't know why, maybe it's really cold here in Canada and heating the house costs so much during winter season.
Lucky for those who won the Powerball ticket in the US. I wonder if the winners are Americans or Canadians. Who could be the next millionaires?
Today, the 14th of January is the feast of the Black Nazarene. It would be the worst traffic congestion again and how many will do the penance or penitence and how many will suffer? The feast in Quiapo is known the world over for its absolute no gap condensed group of thousands to probably hundred thousands of people, maybe the devotees will exceed to millions queueing to touch the hands, body, face and head of the patron saint of Quiapo, the Black Nazarene whom the Roman Catholic devotees are willing to be a part of their pilgrims no matter how they would be injured in reaching out for their extreme religious practices.
There are too many ways on how you could be a penitent: Paying obligations such as paying taxes (GST & PST) for every goods and services when other people in other countries do not pay their tax only when their income probably reach P100,000/month and if they have 5 to 10 children then they don't pay any tax. Buying lottery tickets everyday in Canada that's penitence. (from Government owned Lottery Corporation). We are penitents here in Canada because we struggle when the climate is super HOT and super COLD. We don't queue for long Catholic procession and we don't light up candles and hold it with your hand for the long duration of the procession for 4 hours. We don't wreck our shoes, sandals on the long procession and we dodn't complain about bunions and swollen feet and legs for the long walk that exceeds 3-4 hours depends on the catholic priest where the procession will proceed. Penitence here in Canada is about PAYING TAX every time you shop. You can smell the gas or your fart if you want if that's your kind of being a penitent. In other countries, radon is more terrifying than any kind of gas, so one of my neighbors named his dog Radon.
Being here in front of the computer is also a kind of penitence because we can always feel the radiation but you just wont like to admit it. You keep denying it for the past ten years. Imagine you are in denial for ten years that you are living and breathing RADIATION!!!!!!! Wow! How about FALLOUT?
I'm still alive so LIFE's probably GOOD...sometimes.
