I recently had the opportunity to visit the West Edmonton Mall. For those of you that may not know this, the West Edmonton Mall is considered among the largest malls in the world. With over 200 store, shops, and attractions like an indoor wave pool and theme park. The mall boasts the largest parking lot in the world with room for 20,000 vehicles. I was there on a Saturday and it took me almost 25 minutes to find a parking space, I wanted to get a locker to put my personal item into it but I could not get one as all the lockers in the whole mall were being used. Getting around the hallways was exiting as they were packed with shopper, on looker and visitors like me. I must, however, express my disappointment when I actually saw the sheer size of the mall. I was expecting something on a more grandiose scale instead what I got was a larger version of every other mall I had been too. I am sure that when you count by square footage the mall is huge, but the actual shopping part of the mall is in my opinion rather ordinary. All in all I was quite happy to have visited and will very likely visit again. I simple expected more than what I got.

Movember

Movember is a charity event that takes place in November to raise awareness and funds for prostate cancer and research for other types of men’s cancer.

It is a worthwhile cause, were you sign up the Movember website to become a MoBro then you grow a moustache for the whole month. Hopefully your friends and family will sponsor you and your moustache to help support the cause plus you just may look snazzy with a moustache or like a 70s porn star. In either case the whole event is to bring awareness to prostate cancer and the different cancer that can afflict men, as it is so like men to be shy, quite, or reserve when dealing with their health.

I am going to grow a moustache the whole month to help the charity event.

Remembering 9/11

Today is the 10th year annaveristy of the tragic events that unfolded dring the early morning hours of September 11th 2001.

I remember like it was yesterday when and where I was when I hear the new. Just a day earlier on September 10th I was flying from Toronto to Los Angeles, the morning of the 11th I was driving down Mexico for a visit with some family when I hear over that the boarder was closed, which was very odd. Then over the radio I heard the news, at first I thought it was a joke, until I came home and watched the news for my slef and saw the events unfolding before my very eyes.

There were many innocent lives lost that day, in a cawordly attck by a group of maniacs whom I know are burring in hell! There are no words that can describe the barbarism that these people committed that day! All I can pray for are the families that must live with this tragedy, my heart breaks for them. No legal system on earth can bring them justice for what has happened!

Today we remember the victims, and the fallen heroes! We will never forget that scarifie and their bravery. May their memorie live on.

Canada Day!

It’s that time of year again when in Canada we have a big party to celebrate the birth of our Nation.
This year Canada turns 144 years young, Happy Birthday Canada!

I am proud to call this beautiful land home, for all my life I have lived here; I have traveled my great country from coast to coast and I have come to one conclusion my home is beautiful.
In Canada we have 6 different time zones, 10 Provinces, 3 Territories, and 2 controlled Territories. Canada is the second largest land mass in the world, bordering 3 Oceans and 2 continents.

In our young 144 year history we have been built a Nation of proud people with a rich history of culture a diverse racial background all blended together to form the tapestry of our Great Land. We Canadians are as diverse as the Land we walk on but together we have built a strong, prosperous, wealthy, ingenious, brave, and caring Nation.

I plan to celebrate the birth on my country in none other than in the Capital City of Canada – Ottawa. It’s a whole day long celebration with performances from Canada’s top artist, speeches from all levels of Government, and even a Royal Visits from members of Canada’s Royal Family.
Imagine a party that takes place in the whole city, where the roads become walkways and one million people come to party!

This July 1, 2011 will be another Happy Canada Day as my fellow Canadians and I celebrate the birth of our Great Nation!

Happy 144th Birthday Canada!

Maybe It's Me

I was remembering this show on The WB called "Maybe It's Me." Its a comedy show about a young girl who thinks her family is dysfunctional but in every episode she realized that compared to other families or other people they are actually quite normal, so she is left wondering if maybe she is the dysfunctional one.

Remembering that show, a favorite of mine, made me start to think about my self and it made me ask myself the same question may be it's me?
I have had several relationships in the past all of which have failed for one reason or another. One of these relationships started many years ago about 8 years to be exact and it was on and off, nothing ever really became of it she chose to move on with some one else and when that did not work for her we tried to start something again but failed. I tried everything to make that relationship work, everything including a proposal not a very good one I will admit but one that came from the heart, I really should have put more thought into it but I did not have much time she was slipping from my hands and I felt I had to do something, I know she deserved better but again I did not have much time she was all ready to leave.
Later on I had another serious relationship with a great girl! The relationship was a great ride until the very end. We dated for 3 years straight I meet all her family she meet mine, we traveled together, we purchased things together, we were inseparable. I learned from my mistakes so when it came time to propose to her I did it right but as the month leading on passed I realized I was making a mistake, or at least I though I was, for many many many reason I deiced to break off the engagement. That one decision had become the biggest hugest colossal biggest regret of my life, they say that you don't know what you have until you lose it! I know that from first had experience, I would try everything to make that mistake right but she just would not hear me out and I did not blame her in her shoes I would have treated me like crap, she never did though.
Other than those 2 I have had 3 other relationship that also failed for many different reasons I ended one because we were not on the same page, she ended another because I was not really over some one else I still regretted my decision I made in a past relationship, and the last was just lust and when that was gone so were the 2 of us. I had my very first girlfriend when I was 11 years old and recently I have gone through a break up.

Over all the years I have never had a good relationship! Ever! Looking back all my past relationships have failed for one reason or another I have had many relationship and none of them have worked! I don't get it? What is it about me that attracts these women that just are not right for me, all the women that have come in my door have left going out my door the same way they came in. Some have left me heart broken, some have left me on good term, some have gone out like thunder.

All this leads me back to the beginning. Maybe it's me? May be I have not been up to par, may be I have not done what I could have. All I know is that here I am, apparently I have all the qualities that make up a great man! I am funny, charming, romantic, sweet, I have a great sense of fashion, and I am fit and healthy. But here I am alone, single, and with no real prospects I mean am I destined to live a life of sin and never attain a stable relationship?

Maybe It's Me? May be it's them? Who knows.
