Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

What the hell was that? Am I missing something? Do I need to watch more TV?
Good movie!
No, the point is that the dipshits from the “hope and change” crowd are to immature to realize that the world really doesn’t change and that it’s full of nasty….and good things.
Great metaphor
If the four dudes at the end just would have said “we shouldn’t have voted for Obama” I wouldn’t be so cornfused…..but they didn’t and I need a hug!
handsomeinMN I had the same thought.
Loved the little extra touch at the end: one of the four was nonchalantly holding a computer monitor he’d obviously just “acquired”.
Haha. For those of you that are a little confused, this is from a mostly bad movie called “Hot Rod”, that had one or two ridiculessly funny scenes that happen to make funny metaphors.
Hotrod, a 2007 cult film:
Dave: Hey, Rod, thanks for the ride.
[Rod sees a chuck of metal lodged in Dave’s eye and they both scream]
Dave: Hey, buddy. How’s it going?
Rod Kimble: Dave, what happened to your eye?
Dave: This? Is it really noticeable?
Rod Kimble: Yeah!
Dave: Is it really noticeable?
Rod Kimble: Yeah!
Dave: Oh, man, it’s totally serendipitous. Well, I got off work early, and you know my buddy Derrick? Well he was like, “I’ve got this acid, but I can’t do it.” And I was all like, “Well, I’ll do it.” So I did it. And by the time I got on my banana board, man, I was… I was tripping balls pretty hard, man. So I decided to get on my bench grinder, and a piece of metal flew up and hit me right in the eye. It was pretty awesome. And that brings us to now.
Rod Kimble: Yeah, well, just try and relax.
Dave: Can do, man. Can do. I’m gonna be honest with you, Rod. You look like a giant eagle with fire all around you, and you’ve got a mountain for a face.
Rod Kimble: I’m guessing that’s the drugs, Dave.
Dave: Yeah, but it’s also just kind of weird seeing you drive this minivan.
Rod Kimble: Yeah, well, it’s my mom’s.
Dave: Balls, man! We just ran over a small bus. This really small bus, we just ran over it.
Rod Kimble: I didn’t see anything.
Dave: Hey, we’re here. Seriously, man, this is one of the top-ten nicest things anybody has ever done for me.
Will it ever stop sucking?
Where the hell were the Negroes?
That was a racist clip even though I have no idea what the hell it was about or who was being trashed.
I couldn’t get past that crap muzak.
Hot Rod, for those who don’t know, one of those movies that’s so bad it’s good.

(Warning- Viewer Discretion Is Advised: the controversial scene that depicts cigarette smoking)
Hey I actually LIKE that song!
Abe- I noticed there were no black people, too. I watched it again, and there was one black kid, throwing stuff.
I actually watched some of that movie, but I must have missed that part. The kid’s father was Al, from Deadwood.
Yeah…….like real bob and doug stuff….
Meanwhile back in the real world….
That special election in Massachewsetts is expected to go all wrong….
It is expected that OBOZO et al will declare it “a voter riot” (election fraud) and attempt to get it nullified.
What the hell was that? Good question. Academic socialist something or other? I say that because it was a bunch of off the wall nothing.
Is this the “Gigli” of musicals?
Those still trying to figure it out have not seen Superbad. McLovin says it all.
O’narcissist*: the unravelling, the descent of O’narcissist.
Evil days ahead for the USA and the world.
Excerpt*:
“He [Obama] would rather destroy many of his partisan supporters, the Democratic party, and the nation than be tempered by defeat. In his mind, they will each deserve destruction because they failed to protect, defend, and nurture the only thing that matters—Obama, himself.”
“*153. Harvard Yard Conservative:
Many young men and women–golden boys and golden girls–through intelligence, talent, ambition, luck, and the support of family and teachers are annointed by a Harvard degree. Their future seems guaranteed. No obstacle will defeat them. Yet, quite often, somewhere along the line they meet defeat and never quite recover. They do not have the resilience of others who have lived less charmed lives.
Apart from the instability created by his father’s and mother’s abandonment of him as a child, Obama has lived a charmed life. Politically, he has never faced a soul tempering challenge. He has spent no time in the wilderness. Thus, although terribly intelligent, he lacks wisdom.
Because of his narcissistic, and perhaps socio-pathic, bent he must double down and bluff when faced with the prospect of defeat, however small. He is too brittle to absorb the lessons of defeat and be re-born. He would rather destroy many of his partisan supporters, the Democratic party, and the nation than be tempered by defeat. In his mind, they will each deserve destruction because they failed to protect, defend, and nurture the only thing that matters—Obama, himself.
A little failure early in life is a good thing. A little failure at mid-life can be completely devastating.
Let us hope that Obama will not insist we all go down with his ship.
Long live our Republic!”

“Barack Obama – Narcissist or Merely Narcissistic?”
http://www.globalpolitician.com/25109-barack-obama-elections
I’m watching ‘Taking Chance’ again. It’s a pretty powerful movie.
Shirley that was a Saturday Night Live sketch.
Andy Samberg = dreamy.
I am always amused at the trendy females trotting around their Yoga mats so they can safely and demostrably do, or being on the way to be doing Yoga or Pilates. That’s cool and carrying around a mat makes you look possibly like a badass Muslim.
Cause you know, the young professional woman, after she’s digested her daily of helpful advertising from Oprah and Dr. Phil needs to tell others what to do with their lives.
Whatever the point, I couldn’t watch or listen to that. Ugh.
Hilarious!
Hey PiperPaul, are water bottles over yet? I’ve been isolated by distance from trendoids for a while, last I checked a trendoid woman couldn’t go out in public without a water bottle.
If Brown wins tonight, look for the Dems to go off just like this little movie clip. Good thing its winter, hard to keep people fired up in the cold.
That’s a ‘needle in a hay stack’ video. There may be a point in there somewhere but be danged if I can find it.

“Where the hell were the Negroes?”
Actually there was a token negro in the clip Abe, but I agree they were very under represented. Personally I think that it should qualify for a civil action suit by the ACLU, but unfortunately I think the filmmakers may have covered their behinds on this one. We’ll get them next time.
Actually that song is like an Anthem in Australia. It was done by an Australian Singing Icon. Can’t remember his name. Just recently re-recorded that song.
Yes thats the ticket, marching to the music of the Fall!
Looked like a lot of cattle walking towards the kill shoot with pride.
2 thumbs down.
John Farnham – You’re The Voice
I am not sure where the Hope and Change is in that clip. It seems to be a typical nothing segment so prevalent these days in the film industry. Or, maybe I do not get out enough to get it.
For those of you who don’t get it :
Its from the movie Hotrod.
Its representative of the typical left wing dogma, it starts off with everyone being excited and community oriented and then ends with those who obviously don’t get what they want, and those who are the rent seekers both rioting and stealing when they don’t get what they want.
It speaks of the groupthink and selfish mentality of the left.
I thought it was quite a clever comparison.
nor could I understand the meaning of this, but I never understood why an American college at one time had a class studying the deep philosophies of Don ?’s, song American Pie. Sometimes you may look for a message where there is none. In both cases the music is the pleasure equivilent of putting my testicles in a vice grip.
Langmann – I was close.
Andy Samberg = dreamy. Perhaps will rent.
Where da hell are the exit polls ?
Good stuff!!
It’s all about mass delusion.
Sooner or later, however, all reality breaks loose.
Dude! WTF were we thinking?! The more we see everything go to hell under Barry-O, the more Sarah ‘Cuda looks good…
Yup, everyone singing happily together, and everyone wanting to get their share of the hopey-changey loot. After all, people are at their happiest when they’re taking the belongings of others. Aren’t you? (/sarc)
I encourage everyone to watch Hot Rod. Understand that the movie is hilarious because it so very stupid (intentionally)…if you can’t watch it from that perspective, then skip it.
I loved the movie…and it was stupid.
I kept waiting to see what was written on the friggin cape. For me, it didn’t come across well at all. If you have to guess what the heck the message is saying, then you aren’t making your point.
