rivervision - since election day of 2000.

Friday, 6 May 05 :: painful squared.

why is the american press not covering the elections in the UK? why are we not having election night returns here like they did there? why are the brits as stupid as the americans?

i mean, really y'all. SNAP TO IT. what happens there matters here. who is in power there WILL AFFECT OUR COUNTRY.

idiots.

if you've not heard, the brits have re-elected that big ol' wus, tony blair.

really.

what's worse, re-electing blair, or re-electing bush? psst. re-electing bush.. at least they have national health care.

but really. i know. the brits have a bit more brains than we do. at least they kept labour in. better than the conservatives. labour acting like moderate republicans. kinda like democrats acting like moderate conservatives??

*sigh*

and bush is saying the end times are coming? no. for him its all happening as he's planned.

*sigh*

maybe i should really consider hard finding a phd program in canada. i mean, really. there's one in montreal.

i'm brooke, born in '73. i am currently a phd student in instructional technology. this is the blog where i capture all the neurotic, and the few non-neurotic, moments that seem to come with being a phd student (if you want to read less neuroses and more professionalism go to: oer's, dl's, reuse and culture: it's about a phd student researching digital resources in a multicultural world). i have been from eugene, oregon for a long time.. 8 years specifically (its my home now, but i grew up in southwestern virginia), but now i'm here in logan, utah at utah state university. after finding my roots in eugene i never could have expected that i would leave that liberal oasis and head to utah. but i did and there are days when its a blessing and days when i'm tempted to go back to oregon and beg the folks at lost valley educational center to let me move in. but i won't leave because there are days when this process is better than any kind of high i could ever imagine. what else? i collect things, i have 2 cats, 2 kayaks, 2 laptops (i'm a geek - one mac, one pc). i can be emailed at brookesblog@rivervision.com.
