QW - Wolverine

“Picture a weasel…
and most of us can do that,
for we have all met that little demon of destruction,
that small atom of insensate courage,
that symbol of slaughter,
sleeplessness,
and tireless, incredible activity…
picture that scrap of demonic fury,
multiply that mite some fifty times,
and you have the likeness of…
A WOLVERINE”

- Ernest Thompson Seton, 1906

QW - Anger

"Use their anger to your advantage"

- Sun Tzu

New Year's Day

The evenings activities were quite good. Starting with a Harry Potter movie that was not half bad moving into a dinner while watching the Canadian Jr Hocky team kick American butt. We then enjoyed New Year's festivities at Halifax Town Hall with Breakfast Television and some bands ending with a awesome fireworks show.

Hope all had an equally enjoyable night to start off an excellent year.

Chow for now,
