SAN DIEGO (AP) - A killer whale that dragged a trainer underwater during a show at SeaWorld Adventure Park may be allowed to perform again despite past incidents stretching back to 1993, park officials said Thursday.

The whale, Kasatka, tried to bite the trainer during a show in 1999, and tried to bite another trainer in 1993. "Animals who have been involved in incidents like this in the past have been allowed to continue performing," SeaWorld San Diego spokesman Dave Koontz said.

Park trainers were examining the female orca and trying to determine what made her grab trainer Ken Peters and twice hold him underwater during a show, Koontz said.

If I were a killer whale and you were confining me and making me perform tricks I'd bite you too.

What is wrong with people?

You know when you are surfing around blogs and then you get a call or something so you leave the computer and maybe then you go out for a few hours and then you watch a movie and then you come back to the computer and it's still sitting on that same blog, do you think that person if they checked their site meter would actually think that you were reading their blog for 6 hours? Cause I think if someone was reading my blog for 6 hours that would be kinda, I don't know, odd or something.

Do you think this is a joke, or the coolest email EVER?


"Hi!
Let´s just say that you were touched, at least with the gift of photography!
You´re not gonna believe how I found your blog...
I dreamt last night with the name Binsk. I put it in Google and voilá!! Yours was the first thing that came up! Don´t get me wrong and please don´t be afraid...I live in Portugal...I just thought it was peculiar, to say the least... Anyway, that´s all..."

Okay, enough with the memes.



I've decided to compose a list of original insults and compliments.



Feel free to use them should the need arise.






Insults:

Hey aren't you the guy from the cigarette packs? (Canadian)
If I told you that something was your wife would you beat it? (A thinker)
You should eat more fried foods.
If I were a cat and I had to spend time with you, I would eat poison ten times.
If you were just a tad brighter you would be midnight.
Are you the lead singer of Nickelback?
How long have you been in the coma?
You suck more than my 'original insults list'



Compliments:

You smell like Stella. (For the discriminating alcoholics)


Okay, I could only come up with one compliment, but it's good no?


Also, I am going to start teaching my dog other languages.
Multi-lingual dogs are probably very popular and get all of the high paying gigs.

Donde Esta Ese Hueso?

Will somebody PLEASE help me put my header on top of my blog?

Every time I try to do it, it takes off half of the picture.

Went to Jason's for dinner.

He cooked. And got us some nice red wine. And we watched The Leafs lose.

But it was still really nice.

Orlando has officially knocked Johnny Depp out of the top spot of guys that I will never meet but am totally in love with.



Orlando,
I bet you don't realize how hard it really was for you to knock Johnny out of the top spot. I didn't think it was possible. Sigh.

Stolen from the Chickie of Greece.

I think I have a U.T.I. or a bladder infection or something. I've never had one before but that is what it is feeling like, (after I googled the symptoms). So I got some cranberry juice and probiotic yogurt because I am ALL about the natural remedies (also googled).

I'll let you know if it works.

And this morning, rather than buying some sort of scrub to exfoliate my skin, I just used Celtic sea salt (which I use instead of regular salt) and honey.

My skin is SO soft. You should try it.

Stolen from Leesa and Nude Memphis Steve.

Watched Titanic for the first time last night. Yes, I am serious. I won't tell you about it, because I am sure you already know.
_________________________

I've decided to use more makeup. I always look so washed out in pictures and I figured out why, because I need more makeup. Last night I was wearing lots of eyeliner and mascara just to stay in and watch movies with Jason. When we met up he said "I thought we were staying in to watch movies? You look like you are ready to go out." I said "Yeah I'm weird."

_________________________

I have to quit drinking Coke. I gave up Diet Coke about a year ago and substituted Coke. You need about 1 can of Coke to replace 50 cans of Diet Coke.

_________________________

Did anyone else have trouble sleeping last night? I had one of those nights where you are pretty much awake, with moments of drowsiness ALL NIGHT. So this morning after Jason left for work I went back to bed and slept until 3:30 p.m. So tonight should be pretty much the same thing. Unless I drink a bottle of wine or something.

Your Hair Should Be Orange

Expressive, deep, and one of a kind. You pull off "weird" well - hardly anyone notices.

What's Your Funky Inner Hair Color?

Hmmmmmmmm...just so happens I have a picture of me with orange hair.

I'm a B-lister according to the Blogebrity.

I still haven't figured out who I have to sleep with to get on the A List.

Osbasso of HNT fame helped me get my archives back...thanks buddy.

One of the guys from the restaurant I worked at called and left a message today saying that he was sad that I wasn't working there anymore, and that he has always had a thing for me, and if I want to hang out to give him a call. The last time I spoke to him he said he was engaged and going to move to the States to get married. Also I have a guy. Also I am not attracted to him. But it's nice to get calls like that I guess. I don't want to be mean, but I don't really want to call him back. How do you respond to that? "I got your message about how you have always had a thing for me, thanks, um, that's nice. And I don't have a thing back for you and I don't really want to hang out with you either, but thanks for calling and stuff."

Kind words and generosity delivered to you by somebody you don't even know is probably one of the nicest experiences you can have.

I'm going to pay it forward.

I promise.

Oh and does anybody know how to get your archives back? I accidently erased the HTML in my template.

Hives

To dream that you break out in hives, indicates that you are worried about some situation or decision. It also signifies nervousness and even fear.

Talked to the owner at work. He said he was "taking me off the schedule". That's nicer than firing me huh? He said it was because of the "incident" where I refused to serve a table because the guy at it was somebody that worked in my other "day" job. I basically hid in the back. Ha ha. Anyway my dad who I also work with at my day job said that I did the right thing and we don't need people in our work knowing that I am waiting tables because I am so broke. (Not that there's anything wrong with waitressing or waitresses, there are a few of them there that I will continue to hang out with. Not to mention the sexy Jason.)

And blah, blah "I will put down that you resigned on your papers if you prefer, whatever you'd like" and "Please feel free to come in here any time."

Yeah when I get a hankering for apple crisp microwaved in plastic wrap, or five pounds of meat, eggs and cheese in a skillet I'll for sure drop in.

So I was at work tonight right?

And I looked at the new schedule and my hours are cut down from FIVE shifts to TWO.

And the owner that doesn't write the schedule tells me at the end of the night that the OTHER owner who does write the schedule wants to meet up with me tomorrow at 1 p.m. (on my day off)

I say "Why?"

He says "Oh I don't know."

Bullshit he doesn't know.

I say I have a really busy day but I will try and if I can't make it I will call.

"Oh okay that'll be good." he says.

What the fucking fuck?

If you are out to eat with some friends and you order a round of WATER for everybody, you are not a hero, you are annoying...especially when NOBODY drinks it.

When you see that there is NO ONE left in the restaurant you are at, and the open signs are off, don't ask the waitress if she is waiting for you to leave because she will LIE to you. We are not allowed to say "Yes you annoying prick, as soon as you leave I can."

If you say you are ready to order, then ORDER. Don't sit there for five minutes re-reading the menu.

Some of your kids are REALLY cute. Some of them aren't. At all.

Huh? What? Toliet paper?

I had NO idea that Charmin Ultra soft was SO soft until it was on sale.

I usually buy the cheap no name stuff.

I don't think I can go back after my Charmin experience.

It's like heaven.

The Good Girl with Jennifer Aniston and that dude from Brokeback Mountain is probably one of the worst movies I have seen in my ENTIRE life. Blech.

Oh yeah and date number eight was perfect.

Fajitas, The Leafs, and awesome late night lovey dovey fun.

Life is good.

I just gotta get the angry waitress stuff out for the sistahood.

Nothing to say.

But that's never stopped a blogger before now has it?

Ummm...

Going to work in an hour or so.

My dude quit the restaurant so that makes work a little less hot.

Going to a bar afterwards and I might get to see Sassy and Mr. Sass again.

Have a nice Saturday night.

Peace out.

Date number...I think I lost count...7 maybe?

We went to Screemers at the Toronto Ex.

Yeah...I thought I might have a heart attack or something before I went, but I survived.

Jason ended up with a little mascara on his white shirt because I was constantly hiding my face in it.

The Black Hole was ridiculous...you can't SEE. For like TEN minutes.

And the spinny thing that made you think you were going sideways was CRAZY.

Hope you all had a fun Halloween too. Especially Brico, it's his birfday.
