Seat belts save lives:
I was on highway 119 and just passing the mushroom farm when the big black GMC SUV veered right towards the shoulder. I became very puzzled until I saw a small grey Toyota car veering from the eastbound lane onto the westbound and smashed right into the side of the GMC SUV.
I was behind the SUV but lucky I do not tailgate and had a lot of space to react, but I could have got hit by the grey car as it was being tossed around and it landed on its side (if it landed on its bottom, I would have hit it!). The SUV spinned around and ended up a few yards away from the road.
Since I was the only person who witnessed what happened, I suspected I had to stay until the police came and more cars stopped and I saw that the people in the SUV were okay and capable of getting out themselves, I headed to the grey car, the front was completely totalled so I half expected to see a/some dead person(s). To my surpise, there was only one woman in the carand she was pretty banged up and crying. We could not flip the car onto its wheel so we got the girl to stand up and she climbed out while we helped pull her out.
Her whole left body was blackened with bruises, but considering how she hit the suv head on, assuming at 80-100km/h she is lucky to be able to walk with bruises and maybe some broken ribs/collarbone. So clearly the seatbelt saved her life.
So if you know any friends who refuse to wear seatbelts, this story is a testament from someone who witnessed this in real life. Another important thing is not to tailgate or drive too close to cars in front of you or you'll be included in the ripple effect.

Time For Too Much Change?
I am very glad Barrack Hussein Obama has been elected as Bush's successor in the White House. I have to admit that I would prefer him to be Canada's Prime Minister instead of Stephen Harper. Canada is too full of old folks who want to run the country that lack new and creative ideas.
One of Obama's first executive orders is supposed to be closing the Gitmo Contentration Camp in Cuba. He has so many ideas and a huge burden to bear that were inherited from George F. Bush's (and the Americans' who voted for him) amazing failures.
I was shocked to read the news that along with Obama's motto of "Change can happen", one of his proposed plans is to change the design of the United States' flag.
What do you think of his ambitious idea of changing the United States flag? Other than that flag design, I believe he will be one of the greatest presidents and is who Americans need to guide the United States during this period of uncertainty.

Jews = Nazis!
Let's rally for the Hamas' Victory over Israel! After Israel's actions during the last three weeks, I am convinced Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declaration of "Israel should be wiped off the map".
Hammas was elected as the leader in a democratic election in 2006, yet the United States disagrees that they are the legitimate leader of Palestine. Imagine that Gaza has 1.5 million people, the most densely populated place on Earth and they have rudimentary made weapons that terrorize Israel who has the most advanced army in the world and is supplied with United States made weapons.
This is truly a David vs. Golitah war which Hammas shall win.
Death to Israel! Time for us to wipe the wash cloth over Israel and wipe it off the map!
