You, Me & Dr. Doom

Two storms since last post and nothing major. The story here has been the traffic. Last weekend with almost no snow we had huge traffic of about 4 hours just to get to town. This weekend after our recent storm I am sure it will be even worse. I get all the shopping I need and stay at home for days with Natalia. I am not leaving town at all. This storm left us with the cold powdery snow which is easy to clean up and driveway all clear. No storms forecasted anytime soon and a rise in temperatures again.

It was a good Christmas and I was looking forward to it. Santa got Natalia all she wanted. She got her super heroes and Hot Wheel track and cars. I got a few board games. Yuli too got a present from Santa but like many kids she rather chew on my old towel from boot camp. Natalia likes her cars and the Dr. Doom she asked for, Now we have a villain to play with.

Work has been OK and I got to enjoy myself a bit selling chains for hours. Just to listen to the questions people ask. To my surprise no one has argued with me over sizes. After that fun, I get to go up the hill and see the chaos and the people trying to figure out chains. I will say people in general lately, at least here have lost common sense and the ability to figure things out. People just don't try or want others to do for them. But the installers along the roads up here are not complaining and just taking in the money from these people.

The new year is here and I really do not celebrate. I thought with the recent traffic I would celebrate the new years in traffic on the 330 with countless others. But the roads were cleared and I got home rather fast after zooming past a few cars almost stopped with chain issues.

Spent much of the past weekend "geeking" out watching the Dice Tower do its 18 hour gaming marathon. Did not accomplish my reading goal this year and I knew I was not going to due to my deployment. Took me a while to get adjusted. This year I will set a goal of 30 books and hope to get that accomplished by the end of the year.

Again we see another attack from us against North Korea. Now we blame them for a hack of a movie that was clearly an inside job but this government looses no chance to create enemies and instability. Why should we. We now must make sure South Korea buys our weapons and training. So fear must be instilled constantly to increase sales. With that being said a few days later Sony gets hacked again but this time it wasn't blamed on North Korea. Sony whom has gotten hacked over 50 times in recent times. We also now are starting to see "terrorist" events in Canada. Hmmmm.... I simply ask everyone to question and not fall for the fear tactics being used so much and open today.

Below is a great video I want to share with all.
