Well, forgive me if the very first edition of News from Nowhere here at the new website is loaded with crime. It has been a very gory week of criminal activity in Canada and around the world.
Among the criminal activities — those of the evil Luka Magnotta, arrested in Germany following an international manhunt. He's the man accused of butchering up some poor guy in Montreal and then sending the body parts in the mail to political parties.
Then on the weekend in Toronto at the food court in the Eaton Centre, there was a shooting spree that left one person dead and several injured.
The city of Toronto is in total shock, and well it should be. As for me, I'm in shock because when I lived in Toronto I ate at this particular food court many times. No one expects something like this to happen in any food court, especially that one.
Anyway, the man responsible has been arrested, but it just puts the exclamation point on a scary last few days here in frozen Canada.
In other crime news a mistrial was declared in the case against John Edwards and while he may be far from innocent in this whole scenario, I still think this trial was a waste of money.
In other news, the Queen is celebrating 60 years on the throne.
May I also bring up the fact that during the entire 60 years of Elizabeth II's reign the Los Angeles Kings have never won a Stanley Cup. That drought could end, soon.
Last night was the Miss USA pageant and wouldn't you know it, all the Twitter people ended up responsible for the hot-button "transgendered contestant" question that poor Miss Rhode Island was stuck with. As it turned out, she got the answer right and won the pageant.
And in the weirdest story of the weekend Hugh Hefner has welcomed back Crystal Harris as his girlfriend.
Really? The same Crystal who ran out on his wedding? What is Hef thinking?? I don't understand this one one bit.
That's it for now.
