FLAG THIS POST!

So I have written a blog in a very long time. Most likely because I give up very easily on most things. Also because I just figured no one would ever read these so no worries.

But I occasionally find myself just checking the page to see if maybe someone left a comment.

They don't usually.

That's still fine though. This blog also acts as a way of me organizing my thoughts and such (even though I don't really ever say anything personal in this thing). I guess one thing I could do to get attention would be to make words that stand out that perhaps a government censor could pick up like BOMB or TERRORISM. But I don't know if that's what the Canadian government is about. That's why they're pretty awesome.

I love universal health care. Mainly because I use it more than a normal person. Which means, they're paying more for my health care than I am.

But I didn't intend for this to be a big long speech about health care and the government (mainly because I know next to nothing about how all that works). I was just bored and decided to check out my blog and perhaps write another one.

Which I did.

Sweet.

Where can you go?

So I'm sitting outside as I type this, just in my backyard. And it hits me: You can't go many places without being somewhat connected to the world, via the internet.

This should not be too surprising though, I guess. In modern culture the internet is a vital part of everyday life. It just never occurred to me that there is a way to communicate with the world almost anywhere.

As I type this, my cat is in the backyard with me, hunting for birds. I don't quite think that this adds to what I've mentioned above, but it just seemed significant.

I know that the internet is a major part of the modern world and it should not surprise me that I can go online almost anywhere. It did though.

Just a bit.

This be serious post.

This isn't really a serious post. I'm just wondering something.

Why do people say that they'll help you with anything you need help with but decide not to and instead claim that you have never helped them a second in your life even though most of your time spent with them is spent helping them?

What gives them the right to accuse you of not helping them when every second you're awake is spent thinking of how you can help them?

This is just a personal thing that has been bothering me for a while. I've had people like this in my life. I try to help them. Sometimes I am actually able to help them. It's just when I need help that they accuse me of never helping me. This isn't me just being greedy. I don't often ask for help. Mainly because I'm busy helping some one else.

OK, maybe this was a bit of a serious post. But it's still a valid question nonetheless.

So, I ask: Why do people do this? Is it just human nature? Am I genuinely not helping them and they're just saying that I am?

I would love to know.

Maybe I never will.

Here lies the first.

This is the first blog I'm posting on blogspot. This much is obvious I guess.

I don't know why I thought I wanted to start blogging. I guess I just want everyone to hear what I'm talking about.

SO!

I guess I don't really have much to say except this: I'm tired of the Micheal Jackson death stuff.

He's dead. He wasn't THAT great. Much more important people could die without notice. Lets face it, recently he hasn't even been famous for his music. He released his last album in 2001 and before that it was in 1995. He was more a spectacle that everyone could watch and be entertained by, like someone who is being laughed at but does not know why. They just do it more because people are laughing.

I'm not saying people were laughing at MJ. Or I might be.

I don't really know where I stand on everything MJ-related. But frankly, I don't really care.

Perhaps I'm just cynical.

Perhaps I'm just right.

Oh well.
