The headline for a story in the Record today is: Orange is the new green. Yes - that is sort of how it went.

It's people being people.

For all the talk in Alberta of people being tired of nearly forty years of Tory governments, they seem to have done a remarkable job of electing Conservatives tonight. The count's still coming in, but at this point the Tories have not only won, but they've increased their majority by about eight to ten seats.

As I'm pacing around my office trying to figure something out, I just realized that the sun coming through the window is actually warm. Neat.

I guess all that rain snow froze, 'cuz the roads *really* suck out there.

I'm home, I have food, and I'm going nowhere tonight.

That is all.
