Interesting news this morning: A Greyhound bus going from Vancouver to (I think) Montreal has been surrounded by Mounties just inside the Manitoba border - they had received multiple calls that a passenger had been stabbed repeatedly and then decapitated <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> .

<i>Jeez, stabbing the person multiple times wasn't enough? </i><img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

I guess not - there hasn't been any more news on it, yet <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="no.gif" /> .

There's been a bit more on it - apparently, the victim got on in Edmonton, and the guy sitting beside him stabbed him, according to passengers, 50+ times early this morning. The highway the bus is on remains closed, and everybody's still on board. Damn weird, if you ask me <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> .

<i>A link to the CBC article on it:</i> <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/canada/manitoba/story/2008/07/31/greyhound-transcanada.html" target="_blank">http://www.cbc.ca/canada/manitoba/story/20...ranscanada.html</a><i> . The news channels for here really screwed up their facts - the bus started from Edmonton, and the attack happened at 10 last night.</i>

<i>And they have no idea why?</i>

<i>Apparently not - the attacker got on sometime after the victim, and didn't even speak to him before he stabbed him. The victim was about the same age as me.</i>

<i>Turns out neither knew the other - the attacker's some Asian guy <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="<_<" border="0" alt="dry.gif" /> . If all these political dicks would listen to my advice on closin' the border, the kid would still be alive <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> .</i>

And I'm getting a computer game called 'Knights of Old Republic'. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> Actually one has 100% of it and installs it right now. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> One has acquired it from less-than-legal pathways? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
