So a bit of a new look for the site today, just changing things around a little until I find something I like.
I'm actually getting some views on my videos, not a lot, but some. More than I expected at this point, anyways.
Have a great Saturday night.

Update
Third video went up today. Again, it was just me weighing in on various goings-on in the world. Ideally I'd like to keep putting up three videos per week, but I think two is probably going to be more realistic in the long run.
Also, I'm going to be trying to tweak the HTML in the next couple days, because the ads and search bar are totally not where they're supposed to be.

Second video
My second video went up today, so stop by and check it out (youtube.com/livefrommontreal).
And it is a beautiful day today, so I'm going outside.

Roboto-Simian Apocalypse Approaches!
Just a quick blurb here, but I just found out that scientists at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine have created a robotic arm that monkeys can control with their thoughts. As someone who has seen far too many movies involving monkeys and/or robots, this probably causes me much more concern than it should.

Back in Business
Alright, so Google has realized that I'm not spam, so my blog is now back up. The first YouTube episode is up (http://www.youtube.com/livefrommontreal) and I hope to have a second up by the end of the week.

I'm sick of the race for the Democratic nomination
Well, unless you've been sitting under a rock for the past weekend, you'll have already heard about Hillary Clinton's latest campaign gaffe. For those of you who don't read the news; while defending her decision to stay in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination, Clinton used the example of RFK's assassination as a reason she should stay in the race. She said that (I'm paraphrasing a bit here) she should stay in because he got assassinated in June.
Wow.
While she never mentioned Obama by name, it's pretty obvious that she was saying that she thinks he might be assassinated. A pretty shocking remark.
It should also be noted that when RFK was running for the nomination, only 13 states held primaries, and he was assassinated only about 4 weeks into the contest, not after nearly 6 months of primaries.
So, what do you think? Do you think there is a greater than normal risk that Obama might be assassinated? Should that affect how people vote? And is Hillary justified in bringing up this topic, or is she just grabbing at straws?
Just as an end note, I don't think Hillary should be forced out of the race. If I was in her position (impossible because I'm male, and a Canadian) I hope I would bow out gracefully. However, letting her run until she is incapable or unwilling to do so is part of being a democratic state.

Update
No videos up yet, but I think that once I start putting them up I'm going to aim for 1-3 videos per week, depending on how busy I am. The videos will mostly be my rantings on current events, and will hopefully be a little amusing.
