Consoling Thoughts For Our American Cousins

 

The bunker appreciates that there are more than a few disillusioned people living south of the longest undefended border in the world this morning, but take heart you’ve got many things to be proud of.

 

Who issues threats of consequences better that you do – huh? Nobody, thats who….. and remember, you’ve always got the invasion and occupation of Iraq to be proud of, nobody can ever take that away from you can they?

You Shouldn’t Help Cheat Mother Nature

 

The penguin escaped this time — but as soon as it jumped in the boat I started hoping the whales would take the initiative, tip the thing over, and take their food back.

 

Yes, it’s a video

These Are Perilous Days My Friends

 

My dear friends:

 

Another one of “those times of the year” is once again upon our gender, and we’ve had to make a decision over the last few days haven’t we?

 

Lets hope those of us who have already made our decisions have made them wisely, and that those who are still locked in the throes of indecision will choose well – for the consequences of not doing so are too gruesome to consider.

A Palm Reading From Palin’s Future

It’s 2013. Sarah Palin has been elected President of the Unites States. In her first foray into international affairs she announces that she’s going to resolve this pesky and long standing dispute between North and South Korea. Her adoring supporters revel in her steely resolve, and her self proclaimed willingness to “take the bull by the tail and look it firmly in the eye”.

My Inheritance Should Be Here Soon

 

I have been trading emails for the last week with a very nice Nigerian man named Reverend David Johnson who is very concerned that I get the inheritance that is due to me and thought you all might be interested in how that’s going :-)

Dear CBC Radio In Ottawa

Dearest CBC: without wishing in any way to disparage the anecdotal prowess of your hosts, if I wanted ersatz bonhomie I would be listening to stations that feature “personalities” with names like “Woody” or “the Shark”. These are not examples to emulated, CBC: these are object lessons in how horribly wrong radio can go – distilled stupid, boiling iodine rubbed directly into our frayed and quivering early morning minds.

Spring Is Coming !!

 

Yes folks, not one, but two (count ‘em two!!), of our great nations most famous furry prognosticators have emerged fromtheir dens to tell us that spring is coming early for Canadians this year.

Oh Jeeze, They Let Both Secrets Out Of The Bag

 

We all assumed that the biggest secret in Olympic history, and the biggest secret in Canadian National history, would remain ….. well ….. secret – now we want to know who talked.

Hitler responds to the iPad

 

– and he’s not impressed.

-33 With The Wind Chill?

 

What a bunch of alarmists we have in Ottawa….. I bet it’s not a degree colder than -30 out there. My coffee didn’t even freeze over between the coffee shop and the office this morning and I was walking into the wind for Pete’s sake.

The Pot Calling the Snowflake Black

Yesterday at precisely 1:30 pm, my ironometer blew up. Sparks and shattered glass everywhere. I had insulated it as well I could from the incredible levels of irony generated in blogdom, but clearly some blogpost or comment had seared right through my number nine filters and blown the irony gauges catastrophically off the scale. I have located the source of the catastrophic irony surge.

Christmas Morning

You Know You’ve Been Married a Long Time When…

Christian Juju

How did the Religion of Love become a lightning rod for vicious, jaw-droppingly stupid ideologues who think Ronald Reagan sitteth at the right hand of God?

Books

Somewhere out there an old aesthete is loving caressing his collection of silver-topped fine-grained mahogany buggy whips. Another fondly polishes her beautiful collection of silver-chased onyx inkwells. Are those of us who prefers paper to pixels doomed by Kindle and the market to find ourselves in their amiably dotty company?

My Sarah Palin As Blessed Virgin Mary Trumps Your Obama And Unicorn

Apart from the shotgun shells hiding her crotch, Sarah Palin makes a very fetching Virgin Mary. But doesn’t this kind of parody cause her religious followers any discomfort?
