Yes, once again, Tamakun is taking another (kinda-)vacation. As of tomorrow, there is a extremely high chance that I will not be online to update, so please don't worry about me.

I'm going to Anime North tomorrow, following the board meeting at work. As I'm staying over at the hotel this year (I missed the swimming thing last year because I went home!), and it's highly unlikely there is free web access as there was at E3, I won't be around until Monday, and it's right back to work I go. :P

This afternoon, Dad told me of two things - one, apparently the Liberals have gone against their "No tax raises" speech and have raised taxes on alcohol, cigarettes, health insurance, etc., etc., etc., which makes me a little worrisome. We have to deal with this government for the next four years? Of course, they do this now so people forget about it when the next election comes - in four years.

Dad also told me that apparently Grackles have been dive-bombing Jake (and members of our family) as there was a Grackle nest somewhere in our backyard. I never saw this nest, but I remember notes about that it was going to be destroyed. :( I hate that word, "destroyed", when referring to animals. We don't "destroy" humans...

I don't particularily like Grackles. They're the birds that are twice the size of chickadees and sparrows and scare said birds. At least they weren't dive-bombing me when I tempted fate and went wandering in the backyard.
