January 1st 2012


Greetings My Dear Readers,


It’s been awhile.  It’s certainly been a rollercoaster, but as you can see I’m still here.


Welcome to 2012.  The countdown has begun…  Or has it?

2012 signals the end of the Mayan Calendar on the winter solstice December 21st 2012.  

Due to the highly advanced nature of the Mayan culture and their sudden virtual and unexplained disappearance many people have interpreted the end of this Calendar as the end of the world.

This so called coming end of the world has been portrayed as either:

-    A massive global calamity such as a polar shift that results in cataclysmic upheaval that essentially eliminates all biological life on the planet.

-    A solar kill shot or coronal mass ejection that sterilizes the planet.

-    An asteroid or comet collision with the earth that eliminates all life on the planet.

The doomsayers and even the mass media are having a heyday with this and heralding the end of the world.

The new age thinkers view the end of the Mayan Calendar as a coming global awakening and shift in human consciousness that will bring peace and harmony to the world.

Astrologists will tell you that Winter Solstice 2012 signals the end of the age of Aquarius and the beginning of the age of Pisces.

Then finally Historians will tell you that that the Mayan Calendar is cyclical and it’s ending on December 21st 2012 simply means that the Calendar begins again on December 22nd 2012.

Regardless of which one of these groups is right or whether they are all wrong and December 21st brings something no one has predicted, one thing is for certain…

Winter Solstice 2012 will truly be, to quote R.E.M., the end of the world as we know it.

Personally, on December 21st I’m going to have a drink and toast the end of the world.  Then on December 22nd I’m going to get up and go to work, business as usual.



Until next time,
As Always,
Your Cold Hearted Bastard,

Greetings My Dear Readers,

Its been twelve days since my last post.  In that time I have a lot of time to sit back and soak up the world around me as I am still sitting on the sidelines.  An unexpected but overall, very well timed break from the rat race.

Now let's see...  What has drawn my attention in that short period...


Latin Madman


Recently an armed man walked into one of his former schools in Rio de Jeneiro, Brazil, lined young teenage students up against the wall and proceeded to execute them.

This madman was gunned down by local police, but not before before he executed 13 students.  From all reports the day of the incident, it was unclear what his motive was only that he yelled repeatedly "I'm going to kill you all!" while students scrambled to escape the school.

Again, the world continues its senseless wholesale slaughter of children.  I applaud the brave law enforcement officer who risked his own life and successfully stopped this crazed gunman.  Who knows how many more innocent children may have died if this police officer had hesitated.

This is one that I'll never understand:  War on Children

Countless times in recent years stories like this have surfaced from all corners of the planet.  Armed gunman walk into schools and open fire on children.

I consider school property to be hallowed ground.  This is sacred property meant to provide only safety and security to the very future of our planet.  If these sick madmen are that angry and hurt with the world, then they should simply use their guns on themselves and remove themselves from the pain and anguish that pushed them to this point.   If they are too cowardly to take their own lives and want to strike out at the world then they need to take the fight to someone who can truly face them on their terms.  Don't walk into schools and take out your rage on innocent children, walk onto a military base, or into a police station and make your last stand.  Although I don't agree with going out with a blaze of senseless glory, at least by walking into one of these two locations you can get the fight you want and still make headlines, and although there will still be senseless loss at least children won't get caught in the cross fire.

Children are the future and our only hope for a better tomorrow.  When children are slaughtered like this, its humanity as a whole that suffers. 


Disturbing Documentary


I recently saw a documentary that profiled a few people I knew years ago that died violently.  Although this documentary was based on fact I found it very disturbing.  The people profiled lived very violent, high risk lives but I have to say these people as I knew them were fun loving, hard partying people who never caused me any problems or grief.

Perhaps this was because I kept only a casual association with them or the fact that I always remained on their good side.

But regardless it was disturbing to see the depth of violence in the lives they lived prior to their murders.


Six Year Old Frisked at Airport


This one pissed me off the moment I saw it!

A little six year old girl was frisked and groped in a New Orleans Airport this week, then after she was publicly molested she was carted off to be drug tested while her parents watched helpless to stop it.

Link to Video: Six Year Old Molested and Drug Tested by TSA

In all fairness I will admit that the lady frisking this child was very gentle with her and seemed to tell the child everything she was doing, but come on...  Can you honestly tell me this child was a terrorist threat?  Watch the video, this child is wearing rather form fitting clothing, if she was concealing anything under her cloths (drugs or explosives planted by her parents) it would have been obvious.  This is nothing more then an abuse of power by the communist police state that we all live in.

Regardless of how you view the state sanctioned public molestation of this child, if you listen near the end of the video they clearly state that they are now going to drug test the six year old...  Are they insane?  Does this little girl look like she's been drugged in anyway?  Does she look like a Crack addict?  Give me a break!!!

One thing this video doesn't show you is the emotional trauma that this child suffered and how she broke down in tears after totally confused not able to understand what she did wrong and why she was publicly punished (abused) by strangers...

America wonders why the world hates them!

What's next? Mandatory strip and cavity searches of all young children before they're allowed to board a plane?  Watch closet pedophiles flock to the TSA looking for work, after all where else can they legally and publicly molest children.

This whole thing is just sickening!


Quote of the Day


Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...
Its learning how to dance in the rain!

Greetings my Dear Readers,

Its been a month since my last post.  A lot has happened in that short time spam.


Japan Earthquake and Tsunami

I started a post the day the 9.0 Earthquake struck off the coast of Japan, but alas life stepped in and prevented it from being posted so now here I am trying to play catch up.

As some of you may know, the 2008 No Fear Inventational took me to both Narita and Tokyo, Japan so when the 8.9 earthquake (it was later upgraded to 9.0) and Tsunami  hit Japan last month it hit home a little harder with me then most that I know.

Like many others I spent that morning glued to the t.v. watching live footage of death and destruction come in from half a world away.  It was disturbing to say in the least seeing coastal area I had visited completely destroyed, and wondering if some of the wonderful people I met while there, were still alive.  Their fate still remains unknown.  All I can do is hope for the best.

Needless to say, my thoughts and prayers have been with the people of Japan.


Life in Hell

Life here in this pathetic waste land of so very little has been far from boring.  Mother nature has launched an assault on my compound here in the depths of hell that has left me battling my own Tsunami of water brought on by Spring snow melt.

Last Spring my compound held its own with little difficulty while many around me fought with flooding basements and water logged property.  This year it appears mother nature decided it was my turn and my days are spent in a non-stop battle with water.  Although I have pulled out the stops and put in long hours, mother nature appears to be getting the edge on me.  I have yet call in back up, I'm hoping my latest investment will help stem the tide and put me back on top of the situation.

Regardless of who wins this confrontation, Mother Nature will have the final laugh as I'm sure the repair costs and aftermath will leave me spinning for sometime after.


Time for a Break

In an unexpected turn of events medical issues have sidelined me from the battlefront of my primary vocation for awhile.  Hopefully this will free me up to step up my battle with Mother Nature for property control, and perhaps allow me to further explore this Hell on Earth I find myself in.  Perhaps with a little luck I can find a way to rework this worthless no man's land into something a little more salvageable.

Expect a few more posts, as I should have a little more time



Until next time,
From the Sidelines,

Greetings My Dear Readers,

 

I come to you once again from my bunker here in the deepest and darkest depths of Hell, otherwise known as my central Canadian Command Centre.  It’s been a rough month or so since my last post from this pathetic waste land of so very little.

 

Vocationally, the last few weeks I’ve been pushed to the limit.  Several times I’ve come within an eyelash of throwing in the towel.  Incompetent superiors and useless staff make things much more difficult then they need to be.  Add into this having to deal with the increasingly difficult dirt and scum that wander the prairies, and it’s a wonder I’ve lasted as long as I have here in this man made Hell.  The violence and complete disrespect for human life here is even worse then I remember.  I lived in this area a decade or so ago and sadly things haven’t improved at all in fact things continue to get steadily worse. 

 

A medical emergency rocked the CHB family since my last post and put local emergency medical services to the test. It was nice to see quality medical care in a place that leaves much to be desired in every other aspect.  This unexpected emergency put a nice dent in our cash reserves and will ensure that I continue to be a working class smuck for sometime yet, but such is life, if it wasn’t filled with occasional unexpected turmoil then we’d all get bored and we certainly don’t want that to happen do we

 

Our Central Command Centre has suffered its first technological set back, but with back up systems in place fortunately the loss was minimal this time around. Let’s hope these set backs remain few and far between.

 

Until next time,

Your Cold Hearted Bastard,

Greetings my Dear Readers,

It’s been two months since my last post, I can’t believe how fast time has flown.

Since my last post the icy tentacles of winter have arrived turning this pathetic land of so very little into a Frigid and Frozen Wasteland where ice and snow dominate the landscape as far as the eye can see.


2011

Although I was glad to see 2010 finally come to an end, 2011 began sadly, as my last few have, with chaos and hardship.  As usual the new year began with employmental hell once again thrusting me to the forefront and forcing long hours and high stress to become a normal state of being.

Just once I would like to ease into a new year with high hopes and normality instead of the life shaking calamities that seem to rock me every new year.  Seldom are these events my fault, I just seem to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.  The rest of the world goes to shit and I just happen to always be the one there that gets stuck trying to clean up the mess and put it all it back together.

It’s been as trying and challenging as ever, with brain dead staff and bizarre obnoxious whack jobs making me seriously question why I continue to pursue certain vocations.  I wear so many different hats that I can’t help but wonder why I continue to trade sanity for security, but alas, such is life when you’re a slave of society forced to live under the boot of the man.


The Project

The Project has suffered some major set backs forcing me to look outside my various expertise’ for alternative funding in hoping of putting it back on the fast track.

Should this alternative pan out I may even relinquish my primary vocation in favour of a more exotic and short term alternative.


Entertainment and Memories

The other day I watched with amusement as a young mother weighed down with multiple small children tried to cope with her four year olds very public and rather out of character meltdown.

While I felt for this mother as she struggled to deal with her daughter’s tantrum while juggling other children and a small infant, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of melancholy as I recalled the many times I spent in her very situation.  Although days like these drive parents to the brink of insanity, it’s these difficult moments that parents actually miss later in life.


House Keeping

The Web bots have been quite busy spamming the comments section, but fortunately my having to moderate all posts has helped prevent them from doing any real damage.

As of late I have had several requests asking me to add Video and Audio to my posts for “Entertainment”.  As you know I do add the occasional Video link when I stumble across something I find cute or entertaining but I do that only because these things kind of jump out at me.  They won’t be a regular part of this website.

And on the topic of entertainment:


Amusing quote of the day:

Greetings my Dear Readers,

It’s been an interesting couple weeks.  

On the vocational front things haven’t been too bad lately and have lightened just enough to allow me to catch my breath, but I won’t allow myself to get used to it as I’m sure it won’t last.


Sadness and Retardation

Not long after I arrived in this man made hell an angel stole my heart and showed me that maybe life here just might be salvageable and bearable after all, I often doubt that life here will ever be bearable but this angel shows me that perhaps there is hope.

Well folks, this angel lives about a block from me and my route to and from work just happens to take me past her home daily.  The other day I was returning from work and as I passed her home a young man was exiting the house and slamming doors, clearly not happy.  As I passed the house the young man threw a yard display against the house in frustration.  I just shook my head and continued on my way home as this angel’s home is also a local party destination and prone to entertaining the neighborhood with interesting antics.

About a half hour after I got home flashing lights got my attention.  Glancing out the window I noticed smoke and lots of flashing red lights.  Looking at the location of the smoke my heart sank, something inside of me knew exactly what was happening, but hoping I was wrong I decided to go for a walk and get a closer look at things.

A block away, this little angel’s home was a blaze with fire trucks and fire crews hard at work doing their best to save the house.  Although I was relieved to see no sign of ambulances I couldn’t help but be saddened by the pain, anguish and loss that this wonderful angel would now have to endure.  Seeing everything well in hand with nothing I could do to help I opted to stay out of the way and made my way home.

A couple days later I was talking to a neighbor and they asked me if I had heard what caused the blaze.  As I tend to keep pretty much to myself when not at work I hadn’t heard a thing.  Well, my neighbor was more then happy to share the story.

Apparently this little angel’s teenage brother had got into a dispute with his mother over money.  He wanted money so he could go out with friends, his mother said no and he stormed out of the house angry (This would be what I witnessed on my way home).  Then mad at his mother decided he would get even with her for ruining his evening and set the back of the house on fire.

The result:  Home and all belongings destroyed.

The level of stupidity here is incredible.


My Happy Little Community

Life here in this pathetic land of so very little, which  I affectionately and accurately refer to as Hell on Earth is clearly as pleasant for everyone else here as it has been for me since my arrival.

Sadly, many around me don’t have the experience I do in dealing with violence and crime on an everyday basis, nor do they have the mental strength it takes to cope with the isolation and hardships that come with trying to survive in a small minded northern town.

Life here is so wonderful that a close friend of mine is a regular caller to the Suicide Prevention Hotline and a co-workers husband tried to kill himself the other day.  Even good people are willing to die just to get out of here.


Loss

The CHB Family mourns the loss of one of its own this week.  

An angel of light that brought happiness to everyone they touched was taken unexpectedly from this world leaving behind many shocked friends and family.

They will not be soon forgotten.



Until next time,
As always,
Your Cold Hearted Bastard,

Greetings my Dear Readers,


I come to you once again from this Central Canadian Wasteland I affectionately call Hell on Earth.

You know folks, I’ve traveled the world and been to some pretty dangerous locations.  I’ve made friends planet wide and sadly lost quite a few to the violence and mayhem.  Now that I have spent over a year in this pathetic land of so very little I can’t help but feel a bit like a Vietnam vet, the blood, violence and carnage I’ve seen in the last year although not the worst I’ve encountered definitely ranks up there making this one of the most violent and lawless area’s I’ve ever been in.

Some of the Vietnam Vets I’ve spoken to talk of tours of duty lasting 13 months 15 days.  Was this the standard tour?  I don’t know, but by that count I’m now well into my second tour here in this wasteland, but instead of facing insurgents in black pajamas I face a lawless minority group fully funded and supported by my very own tax dollars.

A losing situation for the good and decent people when our gutless pansy government pander to the worst this minority group has to offer giving them anything they want while they run wild and destroy everything around them.

Not that local law enforcement doesn’t try, it’s just that they are overwhelmed and essentially over run, it’s pretty hard to stop a lawless group when they are fully funded and supported by your own government and taxes.

But as you can see, I’m still here so the garbage hasn’t won yet.  Who knows maybe there is still hope…


Nation of Fear


Ten years ago few people had home security systems.  It was only the rich and famous that felt the need to fortify themselves behind walls of electronics and employ arm guards to protect their property.

I don’t think I knew a single home owner back then that employed anything more complicated then the basic door lock to secure their home in fact, back then very few middle class people even felt the need to lock their doors.  Now a mere decade later, virtually everyone I know has their home and property fully wired and protected by security systems that are monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by companies that specialize in protecting you from the vile scum and garbage that walk our street.

It’s a sad turn of events when a population is voluntarily forced to live behind electronic walls thanks to violence, crime and carnage here in our so called civilized society.  Here in Canada electronic security systems are about as far as the average working class smuck can go thanks to overzealous gun laws that prohibit good and decent people from protecting themselves.  The only ones who can own and use guns are the criminals who do not hesitate to hoard all they can get.  When the criminals are the only ones with any real rights the rest of the population is left scrambling and struggling to hold onto what they can.

Yes folks, we have devolved.  What once was a Nation that the whole world wanted to be part of has degenerated into a nation where crime is rampant and criminals have the majority of rights.

Canada, what was once ranked the #1 place in the world to live has sadly deteriorated into a Nation of Fear.

October 2nd 2010

Greeting my Dear Readers,

 

I hail to you today from this Central Canadian Hell on Earth…

Over the last few months your Cold Hearted Bastard has been repeatedly targeted by local vandals, this local garbage as far as I’m concerned are amateurs in the field of psychological Warfare.  In the last few weeks these terrorist wannnabe’s have stepped up their vandal attacks and have done an estimated 7 – 10 thousand dollars in damage to my property forcing me to seriously step up my security.  These upgrades were in my long term plans, but the actions of the local garbage as of late have simply pushed them to the top of my list of priorities.

My neighbors have seen these vandals in actions but out of fear for their own safety have opted not to get involved and sadly can’t even be bothered to call local law enforcement when the need arises.  As this local scum always seems to wait until I leave for work before they strike, leads me to believe that it’s someone close by, perhaps even someone who has line of sight of my property.

So now I have opted to move to a Fort Knox approach and will shortly have my full property covered by motion detectors and closed circuit surveillance cameras.

Although it is expected that insurance will take care of all repair costs I am waiting until the vandals have been apprehended before moving forward on that front, as there is no point in fixing the damage if the vandals will simply strike again.

As for the Vandals being apprehended, I can only hope for their sake that local law enforcement catches them before I do, as I will be going to prison for assault if not worse, if I catch them in action.

 

Trash Shown the Door

 

On another front I have been forced to play nice with female scum for several months now.  This female scum is the kind that makes my skin crawl.  One that openly admits to abandoning her four children, including one she knowing left with a convicted pedophile.

Well folks, fate has smiled on me and given me the great the pleasure of showing this disgusting excuse of humanity the door.  Never again will I have to tolerate this scum.

You see folks, one of my work environments (I wear far too many hats) forces me to work with and tolerate many people that I would never waste my time even acknowledging given a choice, however, in this particular work place, I often get the pleasure of showing some of these people the door and in my own little way, improving the workplace by clearing out some of the garbage. 

In a work place of high stress and frustration I get my little pleasures where I can

 

Manitoba Canada where safety and security are, well…  Non-existent

 

Stats Canada (you all know my history with that government entity   ) recently released a study that clearly shows that residents of Manitoba are far more likely to be victims of violent crime then anyone, anywhere else in the country. 

 

This sad truth speaks volumes for this sparsely populated province, especially when you consider the more densely populated parts of the country.  Toronto’s Young Street in Ontario is a central hub for drugs and prostitution, violence and gun play are but the norm there.  Toronto’s body count rises daily thanks to the scum that that make Young Street their home.  Vancouver, British Columbia’s North End is a Heroin Paradise  where drugged out zombies wander the streets doing anything to get their fix, often giving Vancouver law enforcement more then they can handle.  British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley maybe a tourist hot spot, but it also boasts a growing Meth problem that is currently running rampant turning people into drugged out, whacked out zombies that will do anything or hurt anyone to get their next fix.

Yet…  despite all this Manitoban’s are far more likely to fall victim to violent crime or get killed then anyone anywhere else in the country.  Says a lot doesn’t it.

The problem in this sorry excuse for a province is the fact that the provincial government panders to the primary minority group allowing them to get away with virtually anything with little to no consequence for their actions.  Forcing many to fortify their homes and live behind security systems.

Friendly Manitoba my ass!  Should you ever choose to visit this pathetic excuse for a province don’t forget to bring a Kevlar vest.

 

Until next time,

Your Cold Hearted Bastard,

Greetings my Dear Readers,

 

I come to you once again from the Land of Not.  The last few weeks in this pathetic land of so very, very little have been rather uneventful, but its demands on my time and energy have left me, as usual, with little opportunity to actively post on this site.

 

Fans and Haters

 

First off, yes your beloved Cold Hearted Bastard is alive and well.  In recent weeks I have received a number of E-mails to my private inbox concerned with my well being.  I guess with the demands on my time I haven’t been as active as usual leading many to think that the worst had finally occurred and that perhaps the scum and garbage I have to wade through daily had finally won and successfully shaken me from this mortal coil.  Fat Chance…

Well, to the distain and disgust of my many haters, the garbage of this world has not yet won and I am still here  :p

 

 

Canadian Outrage

 

The other day I grabbed a handful of change and a quarter caught my eye.  Looking a little closer, I almost puked.

The Canadian Mint has released a quarter honouring the Canadian Olympian Cindy Klassen who captured five Gold Medals at the last Olympics.  The media has celebrated Cindy as Canada’s most decorated Olympian, but what they overlook is that Cindy was offered the opportunity to carry the Canadian flag in the opening ceremonies, an honour that few athletes ever get, and she flatly refused, saying she wanted to conserve her energy.  Yes, that’s right folks this honoured Olympian cared so little for her country that she refused to carry her countries flag. In my opinion she should have been booted off the Olympic Team right there and then.  She then went on to win five Gold Medals and happily carried Canada’s Flag in the closing ceremonies.

Now Canada embarrasses itself by minting a quarter to honour an athlete who wouldn’t carry her nations flag onto the world stage?  This woman is a shame and disgrace to Canada and because she wins five gold medals she is suppose to be forgiven for spitting in the face of her nation?  Fuck her. 

 

Cindy Klassen, a Canadian Disgrace.

 

Ontario Goes Too Far

 

Its now mid-September and children from coast to coast have now returned the classroom for another school year.

Ontario started the 2010 school year by announcing it had adopted full day Kindergarten.  Now I understand this decision was made under pressure from parents who have employmental obligations and don’t want to pay out the expense of child care that would be required for children who are only in school half days when parents have to work full days.

Now, I’ve worked with small children for the majority of my life and all day Kindergarten is too much for children barely five years of age.  Anyone who cares for small children will tell you from first hand experience how hard it is on small children (4 – 5 years old) to be locked up in a classroom environment for a full day.  They simply don’t have the attention span, focus or stamina for an all day stringent learning environment.  Should Ontario incorporate a nap time/quiet time into its all day Kindergarten then it maybe workable, but until then the mental demands of an all day classroom are too much for children barely five years of age.

Clearly the mental health and well being of children were not big issues of concern for Ontario in making this decision, as usual financial security and gain were more important.

Typical…

 

 

Canadian Recovery

 

I was reading an article the Globe and Mail Newspaper regarding the Canada’s Economic Recovery from the recent global recession that is still plaguing the majority of the planet.

According to this article, the Government hopes that the Canadian population will spend our way out of the recession by using our buying power to stimulate the economy enough to lift us out of the red.  However, what the government in all its wisdom seems to forget is that the average Canadian Taxpayer is financially strapped.  The majority of the population, or at least those lucky enough to be working is carrying heavy debt and has little to no real disposable income in order to “spend” our way out of the recession.  Perhaps this is where Ontario’s all day Kindergarten comes in, with the children in school the parents are free work even more in hopes that they’ll spend the few extra pennies they have frivolously rather then pay their mortgages or invest in their children’s future.

Typical government, screw everything up and expect the working class to bail them out.

 

Idiots!

 

But that’s enough for one post.

 

Until next time,

Your Cold Hearted Bastard,

Greetings my Dear Readers,

 

The last week in this Pathetic Land of So Very, Very Little has been absolutely brutal. 

Each and every day has been marked with bloodshed and Squad Cars while I’m forced to deal with more drunken pigs and local garbage then seems possible for a town so small.

 

The Human garbage that litter the streets in this disgusting hole in the ground I now call home, is absolutely mind boggling.  Crime and violence are but the norm in this man made hell.

 

Family values are non-existent and as dysfunctional as they come as small children as young as four and five years old wander the streets at all hours and little girls of seven and eight years old play with condoms as the local minority group runs wild virtually unchecked by overwhelmed law enforcement. This local garbage and complete waste of humanity is fully funded and supported by welfare and various other social safety nets that allow them to live like drunken kings while the working class smucks struggle to get by.

 

It’s enough to make any decent person sick to their stomach. 

 

The solution is simple.  The government needs to stop giving into and funding these disgusting pigs and just fire bomb the entire area.  It will save the tax payers millions and improve the nation by removing some of its worst garbage from the Canadian Gene pool.  But, considering the gutless pansies we call government this will never happen and this garbage will continue to flourish until they’ve consumed and destroyed the entire nation for the good and decent people of society.

 

That’s all for now.

 

Until Next time,

Your Cold Hearted Bastard,
