Animal Mows Down Five People In Victoria

Today, a motorist in a red Nissan (BC Licence: 263 N?L) sped off of Pandora Ave and onto Cook Street. He hit a telephone pole, climbed the curb and wiped out five people waiting for a bus. One on-looker saw the car drag a garbage bin, a women and a baby carriage. According to Livejournal posts, he got out and smirked at the carnage he had created. The first guess is that this was a case of street racing.

All of these pale by comparison to my favorite site: Canada 411


If you want something done about this, make sure that the head of the City of Victoria police board knows your opinion
If you want the new Attorney General, Wally Oppal to earn his pay. Let him know how you feel about this, too.

** Update **
The charges have come down. One charge related to the murder and three charges relating to the other people he maimed. I'm sure they will enjoy him in prison.

Connection. Connection. The murderer in this case was the "victim" in a stabbing. (More on Omar Ali and two other stabbing victims in a TC Story). I have to assume that until he's put away, he's going to be the lightning for a long rod for crime for a long time to come. Speaking of which, pieces of crap used to be run out of town on a rail. Why did we ever abandon that concept?

A-Morning Cancelled... again

A-Morning From A-Channel or A-TV or whatever it will be after the next takeover has been canceled effective IMMEDIATELY. The A-Morning crew would crow over how many episodes they had ("This is Episode 120, Eric!"). I thought that they were feeling that Wile-E.-Coyote-off-the-cliff sensation too. When the last owner of the channel had to cut back they nailed the morning show. Then a new owner rolled out a morning show in markets like Victoria. They dusted off the format and started doing the show again. Monday morning, I popped into a Thrifty's where Maggie Cox was wrapping up her live spot. There she was amid more lights than a Hollywood premier and more cables than a Frankenstein movie. All of her gear and personal effects filled a shopping buggy. I felt a little bit of pity. When I see the same people in front of the camera at 6AM and 5PM and 11PM, I think: "Where is Labour Relations? How can these people be forced to pepper a 17 hour day with three newscasts?"
