Today in history:

Which didn't make it in some of the ON-LINE historythingys....

Terry Fox started his cross Canada run on April 12 in St. John's Newfoundland (from the Atlantic coast to the Pacific Coast) for Cancer research, which was called "Marathon of Hope", (at the time he had hoped to raise one dollar for each of the 24 million Canadians).

To date there has been just about 500 millions dollars raised.

I guess this information didn't make it into ON-LINE history... I should have googled "Canada's HEROES" instead.

well well... better go retrieve the phone and find out what info that you are desperate for me to know... because I wish to not have information hidden from me... I am a super sleuth you know... and a spy, other things mixed in....SO, the boy of mine uses the phone on the weekends... because why would I need a phone, when I am at work, and junk... so he leaves it at his GF's house... where then they forget to bring it for him ... and I get it last night... and had to charge it... and you know... just dismiss all the excitement that it is telling me... ooooppps.... silly me.
