Who dared consider him the worst Canadian ever? Blasphemy!

Best bass player in the world, dude.

34. Or Bryan Adams!? Who's the better musician here?
Has "Everything I do, I do it for you" suddenly gotten a lot of air time or what?

35. Sorry to revert back to my 16-year-old former self, but...
...Rush is the worst band. That Tom Sawyer song makes me wanna strafe a grade school. And his screeching vocals could sterilize a herd of yak.

INHO.

Rock on.

14. Among the living, it's gotta be Avril
Really, does anyone care about political pronouncements from a teenaged high-school dropout? As for the dead ones, gotta be Trudeau- he started the spending spree that led us taxing our grandchildren via the half-trillion-dollar-debt.

18. Stockwell didn't count enough to go in the poll.
No one cares about non-entities. That's the best way to deal with people like him.

38. Bit player
Even his own supporters are trying to forget about him. Even as treasurer of Alberta he was just an errand-boy, Ralph Klein was calling the shots.

17. Evil Lord Black
Edited on Fri Nov-21-03 11:37 AM by XNASA
I got into a conversation last night with a guy who works at the Sun-Times, a Hollinger paper.

He claimed to not be a freep, but he sure came off as one. When he said that Lord Black will likely go to jail because of an impending SEC investigation, I reminded him that nobody who's a friend of Richard Perle would ever be fairly investigated by the SEC.

He then agreed with me, but said that since I was so well-informed (even knowing who Richard Perle was, and that he was on the board of Hollinger) I "must" be part of the Liberal Elite.

Can Black even be investigated by the SEC? I don't know. (On Edit, I guess he can be)

http://media.guardian.co.uk/city/story/0,7497,1088660,00.html

Anyway, I can't believe that this guy more or less insulted me because I kinda knew what I was talkin' about.

Sheesh.

44. Hell no! That dive?
Actually I was at Mac's on Division.

But I hear ya. Putting me down, because I refuse to be force fed the crap they air on CNN, etc.

That's OK. He stole the remote for the music satellite receiver, and I ratted him out to the waitress.

Bastard.

46. Cocktail Party Etiquette (Threadjacking attempt #1)
Just follow these simple rules when you're at your next Cocktail Party:

Determine what your goals are. Whether you are social or business networking, keep in mind your goal(s) in attending this party.

Do extend your hand and introduce yourself to unfamiliar guests. Maintain eye contact during introductions and conversations.

Circulate (make the rounds) a little before you head to the bar or buffet table. Food and drink should not be the main goals.

Don't get drunk.

Do keep conversations away from sex, politics and religion.

Oh well.

Guess there will be no mention of sex, politics or religion at our upcoming soire. Should I cancel?

:hi:

Although I have to hand it to him: he must have a mighty strong stomach to have been able to plant his pursey lips on Reagan's wrinkly ass on such a regular basis.

40. I can't believe how few votes have been cast for Mulroney...
...everytime I think of that "news" story with him and Reagan singing a duet of "When Irish Eyes are Smilin'", I get physically ill (and yes, that event actually happened somewhere).

That asshole sold this country down the river to US corporate interests, walked away 10x wealthier than when he took office, and the effects are still being felt.

45. Geddy Lee's face frightens me
but Celine Dion is HORRIFYING. Give her a sandwich - a BIG one - stat! Maybe it'll fill her mouth and keep her from making that NOISE anymore!

and Shania Twain is for people that find Britney Spears just too gritty and realistic. Total plastic Barbie.

Geddy Lee's one of the most frightening-looking people in the world, but at least he has talent. I do wish he'd sing in a lower register, though. After awhile, that tenor grates on my ears.
