Canadian Melodrama - is there a better pastime?

BEST PURCHASE EVER!!!!!!!!

A few weeks ago, I made the best buy ever. What better way than to wile away my sorrows than a piece of 80s Canadian kids soap opera gold?

Seriously, how can you go past Joey Jeremiah and The Zit Remedy "Everybody wants something...they'll never give up...." and how about Wheels? Positively the most unattractive kid on earth - he had it all. Giant square glasses, bad skin, he wore skinny jeans and let's not forget the fabulous mullet! And how can you forget 'All The Way with Stephanie Kaye!'?

Pure and utter genius of children's television! Cos how can you criticise a show that had a 13 year old punk teenage mum, or a kid who tells a girl he likes that her eyes are like 'pimming swools', or girls that wear dresses with the belt or hot pink leggings or shave the top of their head but not the back (ie Liz the animal rights activist)? And a show in which the 'hero' is a cocky little hobbit (he he he...cocky!) chasing after a girl who looked exactly like my brother in the first few seasons? You just can't. It's addictive.

If anybody would like to partake in some filmic genius at some point, be sure to give me a call and me and the Degrassi Gang will be waiting! But for now, some lyrical poetry....

Wake up in the morning, feeling shy and lonely

Gee, I've gotta go to school

I don't think I can make it, don't think I can take it

I wonder what I'm gonna do.

But then I look around and see that someone is smiling right at me

Wait! Someone's talking to me,

Hey, I've got a new friend.

Everybody can succeed, all you need is to believe

Let's be honest with yourself.

Forget your fears and doubts (.....note: pronounced dotes! he he)

Come on give us a try at Degrassi Junior High!

PS. Completely off the topic, did you know there was such a thing as 'beaver cheese'?!!! I'm not kidding. They milk beavers and then turn the milk into cheese. How funny is that! But would you eat it??????!!!!!

Drum roll....

Question: What's got three legs and an asshole on top of it?

Answer: A drum stool.


He he he....

WCB REGIONAL TOUR 2006 - PETERBOROUGH

April 1st and 2nd were the dates to remember....

Eight fabulous musicians of the WCB persuasion ventured to ye olde Peterborough armed with instruments and hick names (Cletis is my personal favourite, yeah Nic).

We travelled in a very squishy car which brought out the best in people, as you could imagine. Yeah, room for 8 suitcases my ASS!

We arrived 2.5 hours late (missing most of the afternoon practice session) ....it was so not my fault...I am a very good navigator person....Surrey Downs is SO westerly direction.... :)

Moving on....

Even though we were tired and high on Red Bull (I bought out the entire general store) and the obligatory International Roast, the evening was good - at least the free food was.

We played really well (aside from the...ahem....dance band....)

The concert band played Birdland almost correctly for the first time ever. The venue was good. The tables looked very pretty. We looked semi-okay in the stupid bowties and scarves.

And the audience loved every minute of our show.

All 8 of them.

But hey, it's all for the bonding experience, yeah? And I think some of us did that....

.......some more than others.....

More to come.....

It's time to rejoice!

HAPPY NO PANTS DAY!!!!!

Just to get into the spirit....


A man walks into the psychiatrist's room wearing nothing but clingfilm for pants. The psychiatrist says "I can clearly see you're nuts".

He he he....

PS. Funny piece of information for Pornboy: The annual No Pants Day protest is being held in Austin, Texas. Coincidence? I think not!

So Excited!

It's only three sleeps until International No Pants Day!

Down With Pants: Feel The Excitement (metaphorically speaking)

Over and out.

Beer is your friend

This is our second fridge. There is a lot of beer left over from my 21st that we don't want to drink. (Dark ale, west end...ew) The veggie crispers are full of goon and mixers. Somewhere in our house you will also find a bottle of vodka and various amounts of other spirits. Above the fridge you will find more beer that we have no room for, which is why we need you all to come over and empty the fridge for us. We will also be celebrating our housemate upgrade (*ding*) and Caths awesomeness. Friday the 5th is of course no pants day and even though our gathering wont be until the next day, we will still be encouraging guests to check their pants at the door. Especially if one's pants are replaced with a toga. Tooooooooogaaaa!!! Klaus is bringing his bbq, Benny's bringing his poker set, I think Chris, Porn Boy and Nathan are going to be treating us with their fine music ("yes Lori, we'd love to play at the party") you will be in fantastic company and don't forget the FREE BEER. May 6th, 9pm. See you there. Winky face.

New challenge!

I have the best idea!

Upon arriving at Adelaide Airport from Tasmania, I realised just how many people are standing there with open arms waiting to greet their relatives/friends/significant others. And it got me thinking.

How bloody funny would it be to just show up at the airport and just go up and randomly hug/tackle some poor bastard coming off the plane. It would make it even better if you said stuff like "It's been so long!!!" and "You've grown so much!" and pinch their cheeks and stuff. And watch their reactions. I'm salivating just thinking about these evil doings.

I'm so doing this. Anyone want to volunteer their video camera?!
