A container ship caught in the Suez Canal took an unusual route through the Red Sea before it became stuck on a major shipping route.

I've been following that bit of news closely. It's amazing how interdependent almost every country's economy has become... I see that as a good thing.

LEWISTON, N.Y. (WIVB) — A 54-year-old woman was rescued from the lower Niagara River on Sunday morning despite refusing Coast Guard help and threatening to kill anyone who approached her, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Around 4:30 a.m. the Coast Guard and several agencies responded to a report of a woman on a homemade raft in the river.

Authorities say Border Patrol Agents “maneuvered to initiate a rescue due to the freezing water and air temperatures after they discovered the woman located only 50 yards from the shore.” The woman, a U.S. citizen who was not named, refused to return to shore despite numerous requests.

It is kind of sad though. The poor guy ended being arrested and maybe even slightly injured in the process. I'm not faulting anyone here. It's just disturbing to think that this is what society has "evolved" into. I mean wouldn't it be great if instead of this story we could read something more like "Cops take stroll with man on his Walk of Shame"? People just don't seem to know how to interact anymore. What a shame...

Too many cameras today in a zero tolerance society.

Doing a 'favor' for some poor guy instead of strictly following the letter of the law gets you fired as a cop.

 

Watching TV yesterday. Commercial for Dairy Queen came on. Thought 'maybe I should launch a class action suit because the name "Queen" is offensive to some.' What do you think? Should we find every sort of thing we can become intolerant towards?

the name "Queen" is offensive to some.

Perhaps especially Prince Charles.

Please hold off on the lawsuit I'm starting to like dairy Queen more and more.

It hasnt even reached a peak yet. What is sad is that people offended and seeking special treatment have no idea where this is leading. Those who do know where this is going have no idea how to stop it.

Sit back and admit it. There is no way that I can make everybody happy... So it's their problem, not mine. So screw em!

I think there are so many people now wondering about struggling with self-acceptance and it is sad, really sad. It is sad because to love and accept others you must first learn to love and accept yourself. What kind of future lies ahead?

 

What kind of future lies ahead?

I'm afraid it's one in which self righteous jerks that reject their own nature despise others that accept themselves and others as they are...

 

It does seem to be going thataway...

Glad to see things worked out for him.

His former employer is a piece of work.
