But they're snow covered!
Posted by: Ghost of Ed at December 22, 2008 3:28 PMAnd you have a problem with that Ghost? Nothing a little maple syrup wouldn't fix!!! Darn.There comes my male chavunist outlook again.You got it,flaunt it.
Posted by: Justthinkin at December 22, 2008 3:31 PMTouche. Oops. Better not.
Posted by: Ghost of Ed at December 22, 2008 3:33 PMThat may be so but here in Canada it is a wee bit nippley for flaunting your Great Tits out in the open.
Juvenile I know but ya gotta admit the Brits always manage to lob a softball over the plate, and with a straight face.
Posted by: Texas Canuck at December 22, 2008 3:37 PMMysteriously the woodcock population rises in accordance with great tit numbers everywhere.
Posted by: richfisher at December 22, 2008 3:39 PMI am so relieved that tits are not threatened....
Now where are my binoculars?
Little nipply out,is it??

Posted by: Erik Larsen at December 22, 2008 3:47 PMPictures! Your claims are meaningless without pictures!
Posted by: Edward Teach at December 22, 2008 3:55 PMI'll be happy when the AGW monster is "tits up".
Posted by: Indiana Homez at December 22, 2008 3:56 PMoh my gawd.
Posted by: old white guy at December 22, 2008 4:05 PMWellllll, maybe I was wrong.
Posted by: Western Canadian at December 22, 2008 4:05 PMI just showed that headline to one of our assistants who does indeed have great tits. And I'm not talking about birds.
Posted by: Reid at December 22, 2008 4:06 PMWell, I usually get a case of nipple-itis in the cold weather. I've heard no complaints, tho.
Posted by: Soccermom at December 22, 2008 4:15 PMWhen I clicked on the link to this I thought "great, one more reason to hope for global warming." But like most headlines you read it is too good to be true. Seems the tits they talk about are not the ones I was thinkin about. So once again I have bin duped by a headline that promises more than it can deliver. It made me think of how often we go to a link because of the title and find it is not what it appears to be. And how often the media uses sensationalism to make a point (Harper will destroy Canada, Bush is evil, the continuing Iraq war, the Taliban winning against out troops…etc) and how many people will believe the headline without actually looking deeper. We need to keep our guard up against the BS the loony left will try to feed us lest we become assimilated into the ranks of the bobbleheads. And we need to teach our children not to be gullible to the extreme left’s warped and perverted view of the world.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you. And let’s hope next year will bring us a Harper majority.
But are the boobies okay?
Posted by: andycanuck at December 22, 2008 4:28 PMNyuck nyuck nyuck! Thanks for keeping us a breast of the situation, Kate! ~:D
Posted by: The Phantom at December 22, 2008 4:30 PMWell golly, I guess I'm a bare breated wood pecker and don't undertand dees tings.

Posted by: Dan at December 22, 2008 4:50 PMIn a related story, British tourism is expected to increase 50% this summer.
Posted by: Dan at December 22, 2008 4:53 PMI've always been in awe of great tits.
Posted by: Brian M. at December 22, 2008 4:55 PMIt's always nice when there is a little nip in the air....
Posted by: Jay Currie at December 22, 2008 5:26 PMsoccermom....would that be high beams, or low?
Posted by: Justthinkin at December 22, 2008 5:34 PMIsn't that a British tradition at this time of year, Titties and Spotted Dick?
Ah the Brits have all the fun.
Were are these great tits?
Posted by: Hannibal Lecher at December 22, 2008 5:52 PMGreat tits , by their nature , can grope ...... I mean ..... cope with anything .
Posted by: Bill D. Cat at December 22, 2008 5:58 PMLiz Hurley, now those are great British tits, bring her on to validate your points please BBC. Always remember when Leno flashed a picture of her as he was interviewing that dufus Hugh Grant, then he flashed a picture of the ho Grant was caught with and Leno said,"what were you thinking".
Posted by: bartinsky at December 22, 2008 6:01 PM" Erin go Braless"
...... an end to the Quebec Separatits ?
Posted by: Bill D. Cat at December 22, 2008 6:05 PMHave you heard the one about this guy who walks into a bar with a bird on his shoulder, sits down on a empty stool, looks the very buxom barmaid in the eye, and says: Great tits do well with warming. ...
Posted by: Yoop at December 22, 2008 6:14 PMAlways thought GW was as useles as two tits on a board.
Posted by: Revnant Dream at December 22, 2008 6:23 PMThey do better with a little cooling.
Speaking of tits, we've been getting tons of bushtits at our suet feeder lately. Must be the snow here on the west coast.
Posted by: Peter Jay at December 22, 2008 6:42 PMwarming them works, so does a little chocolate :)
Posted by: Fred at December 22, 2008 6:46 PMHow fares the often-overlooked lesser tit, or, indeed, the all-too-frequently-ignored ruby-titted humdinger, in the face of warming?
Posted by: exetaz at December 22, 2008 6:58 PMAnd, ummm, don't forget the beavers.

You said:And let’s hope next year will bring us a Harper majority
I have the good fortune to be able to take a week's vacation in the warm & sunny each winter.
I brought it forward this year in case I need to work on another winter campaign.
Posted by: RW at December 22, 2008 8:17 PMcapt_bob at December 22, 2008 5:51 PM
Spotted Dick is not something tio be desired, either biologically or cullinary.
Posted by: RW at December 22, 2008 8:24 PMI've been a birdwatcher all my life, and didn't know it.
Posted by: Ghost of Ed at December 22, 2008 8:34 PMheh, it's been a while since you updated your pic Kate!!!
Posted by: Boss429 at December 22, 2008 9:31 PMAh, an old headline, but a good one. I posted that the day it came out.
Posted by: msr at December 22, 2008 9:50 PMDizzy Miz Lizzie is proof positive that global warming is a bust.

Posted by: bubba brown at December 22, 2008 11:56 PM"made me look" !
Posted by: marc in calgary at December 23, 2008 12:24 AMThe way the British talk... makes me wish I lived in Britain. I yearn to be able to go around saying "I'm going to go light up a fag and check out the cute tits at the park..." without getting hauled before some "human rights" commission...
Posted by: The Canadian Sentinel at December 23, 2008 12:34 AMIf great tits do well what about lesser tits?
My Welsh mother always emphasized that tits were birds, teats were what calves sucked for nourishment.
Posted by: Joe at December 23, 2008 1:15 AMFred mentioned, "warming them works, so does a little chocolate :)"
Just a reminder of the old adage, "Liquor is quicker."
..and the equally (in)famous "Have some Madeira, my Dear."
No doubt the basis of the sage advice, "Any Port in a storm..."
Those Brits do know how to party.
"Dizzy Miz Lizzie is proof positive that global warming is a bust"
Bernie,
Does Dizzy Miz Lizzie disappear for two weeks when a ship comes in?
RCN CPO Classic Warning:
Son! Shore leave requires protection. When you are dunk as a Skunk the most hideous & ugly beast is going to offer you her bed. When you wake up in the morning, beside that beast, you are going to hate yourself & any part of you that came in contact with her. Son! The beast may live a normal live with husband & children but every time a Ship comes in she disappears for 2 weeks. She trolls the Bars for fools like you. The Shore Kit of rubbers will at least save your dick from falling off.
Hmmmm.... The earlier in spring the that the tits come out the better.
Posted by: Len Pryor at December 23, 2008 4:57 AMDang it all. I'm starting to get Benny Hill flasbacks.

Posted by: Charles MacDonald at December 23, 2008 9:28 AMincidentally, there has also been an increase in the number of brown breated nutthrashers of late.
