“Hey Daddy! There’s a dragon in the driveway!
Momma! There’s a grizzly on the lawn,
You’d better come quick cuz there’s a hippo in the bathtup,
and it’s going down the drain, oh no, it’s gone.”
Anne Murray likes golf.
Gordon Lightfoot
Amen Wild Duck. Give me ol’ Gordie over Anne any day!
Make that Anne Murray with six brewskies and a sat dish remote control and you got the Middle Canadian ideal.
And before this we only thought that Americans had no clue who we were!! Now we know it for fact! ROTFL! I am not a fur trader…:D
Now here’s a Canadian worth talking about:
Steve Nash, NBA – MVP
As a Phoenician, I’m with you on Steve Nash. What a difference he made this season.
You know what would be better than Anne Murray? Rita McNeil in a G-string and pasties. Oh yeah, and Ashley MacIsaac standing behind her and flogging her pallid flesh with his violin bow while ripped on acid and screaming obscenties at the audience. And let’s have Gordie Lightfoot table dancing somewhere in the background. Just because.
Those are some Canadian cultural sensibilities I could get behind.
Not.
Jeff, keep “attempting”.
LOL, don’t you know how knarly we all are these days?
(I hate Anne Murray because she’s nasty to small children at concerts)
Bare Naked Ladies and Paul Anka
Guest blogger tries to appeal to da Canadian values, eh?
In a bid to widen her already vast audience, Kate’s guest blogger Jeff goes for the traditional Canadian market: In which I attempt to curry favor with Canadians by carefully caressing their cultural sensibilities Is there anything in the world…
Anne Murray, my bum. Youse guys fancy Alan Thicke more, eh?
I don’t know, I don’t think your choice is PC enough for currying favour. Not to mention you used American-style spelling in the title to your post. A catholic mother? where is the self-flagellation? where is the dedication to feminist ideals that we Canadians are so in love with now (how many abortions did she have?) how is she a victim? Canadians love victims. a better choice would be K.D. Lang. that’ll get the culturally sensitive types all aroused. or a rosa parks. or mike and mike, that cute gay couple that were the first to get married in Canada. now those are heros us canadians can rally around!!
The Queen City Kids!
I dunno; the mere thought of a dentist photographing a penguin has always warmed my heart more than Ms. Murray’s warblings. But that’s just me.
“Stompin Tom” rocks!!
Jann Arden – Alanis – Avril…
Tragically Hip.
Carin- not a Canadian.
RUSH!
How can you forget RUSH!
Rita McNeil in pasties and a thong? Oh MY EYES! MY EYES!
Or, to relate it to an earlier post howabout Anne Murray in a hockey goalie net wearing some of the new “smaller” goalie pads (with nothing else)(that’s the sex part) and drinking a beer?
“Sex & Beer” (and hockey) with Anne Murray! The CPC can’t go wrong with that one!
