It's about a child soldier in Africa. Fantastic movie, just, very real.

Better for me to refrain... Such things make me rather emotional, and sometimes not in the blubbering mess way.

Indeed.

I have less sympathy for a drunk driver who kills a young family than a school shooter.

I got half-way through that movie and then I went to bed. That was over a year ago. I still need to finish it.

Well, earlier this year, the first homicide involved a middle-aged woman killing a young family of four at an interchange near the north end of the city. I had a hard time not wanting to take revenge against the family of the woman to make sure that she feels the consequences.

Then several weeks later, there was a school shooting in La Loche, on the northern end of the province. I didn't feel that same rage that I did above.

Wanting to hurt the innocent family of that woman is kinda messed up.

I never managed to find out what she was printing, I don't ask those kinds of questions. As long as the department she is a work study for and therefore charged it to can afford it (the machine doesn't yell at us - it didn't), then she's golden.

I know it was, but part of me felt wanted her to experience what the relatives of the innocent family that she had killed were experiencing. Eye for an eye, if you will.

But yeah, all that would do would be to cause a feud and a vicious cycle that would never end. Plus, eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.

She was in there for at least four or five hours. I've never seen anybody else stay in the document center so long besides people like me who actually work in there and therefore have to be there for long periods of time. Most students and staff are in-and-out in a matter of five minutes tops; they either had a short, quick copy job, or they were coming to quickly pick up a package or a print job that we did for them that they requested via email.

Dealt with similar problems a while ago when I was trying to upload for a logo to host the next regional summit. But it wasn't just a 503 server error: it had that 404 error page or something, and it took quite a while before Imgur went back up.

Almost as if they got NS' old servers.

Ancient trade routes could provide much tourism revenue if proper security could be established and maintained. There is much to be seen in many of those cities.

I should be working on a PowerPoint about myself, which seems like it should certainly be an easy assignment, but it is very difficult trying to figure out what I want people to know about me.
