A Canadian soldier was killed by an improvised explosive device Thursday, just a few days short of the end of his tour of duty in southern Afghanistan.
Pte. Kevin McKay, of the 1st Battalion of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, died when an explosion erupted around his platoon while on patrol in a village just outside Kandahar City.
The 24-year-old from Richmond Hill, Ont., was on a "presence patrol" in the village of Nakhonay, about 15 kilometres west of Kandahar City, when the IED exploded.
HE IS THE SON OF ONE OF TORONTO FIRE FIGHTERS
"He was the type of soldier that Canadians might think of when they think of their army in Afghanistan -- the tough, courageous infantryman, living in austere conditions and doing incredibly difficult work," Hetherington said from the main coalition base at Kandahar Air Field.

Hi Everyone...
Found out upon arriving at work earlier that today I am Short Staffed by THREE!!
I will be Stupid-Busy today, with no chance for Lunch.
Such is the way things go, I guess.
Do not mind the Noises you may hear riding the Wind today.
The Howling will be me and the Growling my stomach (will try to keep in tune).
Warden still has me locked up.
{Hope he went to the Grocery Store!!}
The only Snack I will have time for is a Psychedelic Psnack.
Catch up to you later tonight, my Friends.
I live in a Cartoon World as I am surrounded by Characters.

So the e-mail from the police and the e-mail from the school superintendent both encourage me to keep talking to Principal and keep reporting every little thing. So I guess that's what I gotta do. Filing a police report isn't an option at this time but I won't rule it out of the future. I met with the Principal today and we seem to be on the same page. So yes, I'm still in a sort of limbo.
