Today

I've been getting a lot of traffic lately! :) I like. Anyways, today was pretty awesome. I went to my brother's hockey tourney today. They lost, but I did see Doug Gilmour. He's the head coach of the Kingston Frontenacs! They are my new OHL team.
By the way, I love my parents they are the SHIT! My sister is pretty cool too. She bought me a bucket of alcohol for Christmas... oh man she knows what them university kids like O.o
I'm downloading Jimmy Eat World right now. I heard them on the radio and I remembered how much I loved them.
All in all, I'm feeling pretty good. I had a few moments of weakness these past few days. I emailed my ex :S probably not a good idea in the long run, but he hasn't emailed me back which is fine. I love having the last word. I was very nice in my email so, I can now live with myself knowing that he at least knows how I feel.

I've been reading the novels by George R.R. Martin. They're going to be made into an HBO series. I ALWAYS love HBO series, so I'm excited. Plus the books are nerdy and epic.

Well, I'm going to get back to my reading... I'm so addicted. I forgot how good reading is for escaping reality.

Genocide is a Fun Pastime

"Sudan's government says the scale of the violence and suffering has been exaggerated by the west for political reasons.
It denies charges that it organised the Arab Janjaweed militias, accused of widespread atrocities against Darfur's black African population."

- BBC News

The scale of the killing is exaggerated? There should be not killing period. So, the government blames the west for the exaggeration of the killing, causing their charges for mass murder?
The International Criminals Court can have any of it's charges waved by presidents like the President of Sudan Omar al-Bashir, a man who is immune to being prosecuted for his part in the genocide in Darfur. This sure sends a great message. International should no longer be a part of ICC. More like ASFCC. A Select Few Criminals Court. It's fitting I think. What's the point of a criminals court that cannot charge people of high power for their crimes? I guess mass murder isn't a major crime.
