Greatest Fear

So I'm at work. I'm kinda tired, it's been a long weekend. Not literally, same length as most. Btw, i would like to take this time to tell any Americans that happen to be reading, you took our weekend. May 24 fell on the totally wrong weekend because of the oddly timed Memorial Day weekend, but don't worry, I don't blame you guys. Although, i will say, shopping is pretty sweet on Memorial Day; I also love American Thanksgiving... so on that note, please enjoy your/our long weekend. We sure did.

Anyway, I've trailed off, I'm at work, at me and my co-worker 'Cranberry Clan' are wasting time discussing a dream I had in which i accumulated $400,000-$600,000, by taking some stacks of cash from what was originally a $2M find that i recognized as not being mine. None the less this led to the discussion of what I would do if I happen to wake up and find that the tooth fairy had made a mistake and left me with the glorious dream cash. I told Cranberry that i would actually be quite scared because i don't know who's money it is. I like money, but i'm not dying for dead Prime Ministers, and I'm certainly not dying for a loon or a beaver, or rink full children playing hockey. (To those of your from the US, our $5 bill has kids playing hockey. Take that Lincoln Memorial.) Well this sparked a discussion of our greatest fears.

"My greatest fear? Mine is, or should i say are, mimes and clowns. Well more specifically, it's Mime's and Clowns joining forces together to create a massive global terrorist group; raping children, pillaging villages, erecting invisible walls, and hoarding the world's umbrella supply. Riding around in little cars blasting propaganda to the masses. Sure everyone will be wearing a red smile, but no one will be happy. The streets run red with make-up and seltzer water. People tied and gaged with invisibles ropes, eyes ripped open so they can watch as as men and women get their feet stretched, tearing ligaments and breaking bones. Labourers forced to move heavy loads in which they cannot even see. This my friend is my hell, my biggest fear. That and scorpions.... ewwww!!!!"
