New release this week

This week I needed something to depict the serenity of GIGC and my new surroundings. I chose: Lots of Love and Peace by Happy Louie, Julcia and the boys.

That might as well be GIGC, myself and our crazy friends OBJ, OKD, Bob Noxious, Stains, Trber Enots, why even the Mayor who very well could be holding the accordion.

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming

OK...it's all over but the crying and with a minimum of transitional fallout. Strange has sought out and found greener pastures. Now I can get back to what I do best....nothing at all.....all right I'll go you one better and get back to the daily post at least.

Please do not adjust your set

Please standby....Strange is going through the change of life.....OK maybe not that, but some other changes are coming: A change of venue, change of vocation, a change of underwear- thank god.

Change of venue: Strange has gone over to the other side, but it did not involve the Grim Reaper. I've just moved clear across town. From one side of the big smoke to the other.

Change of vocation: Yes the rumours are true. Strange has left the synchronized underwater dancing team and moved on to greener pastures. Remember kids: The grass is always greener on the other side especially when it's fertilized with 28-4-8.

Change of underwear: Best left undisclosed.

See you soon when an air of normalcy has returned to the crisp blue skies of fall.

New release this week

Honestly I'm at a loss for words.

Cent...5 cent...10 cent...dollar,dollar!

The Canadian dollar is at the same level as the U.S. dollar for the first time in 30 years, but you need to know how to make your own condom dance party.

Hump Day by the numbers

Let's start off with something topical....like....oh I don't know....10 O.J. related videos

Top 10 movie hitmen.

12 great talk show brawls.

7 great men in history and why you should hate them.

10 best shots in the snutz

Game over

A Chinese man dropped dead after playing internet games for three consecutive days, state media said, as China seeks to wean internet addicts offline.

The man from the southern boomtown of Guangzhou, aged around 30, died on Saturday after being rushed to the hospital from the internet cafe, local authorities were quoted by the Beijing News as saying.

"Police have ruled out the possibility of suicide," the newspaper said, adding that exhaustion was the most likely cause of death.

Is it any wonder? Did you see the game he was playing?

Take a look.

Rosh Hashanah seems to be all about the Juice

Forget the Jewish New Year, prosecutors filed formal charges Tuesday against O.J. Simpson, alleging the fallen football star committed 10 felonies, including kidnapping, in the armed robbery of sports memorabilia collectors in a casino-hotel room.

Simpson was arrested Sunday after a collector reported a group of armed men charged into his hotel room and took several items Simpson claimed belonged to him. Simpson has proclaimed his innocence.

I'm sure if OJ agrees to help find the the real burglar they'll let him go.

Here come the judge, here come the judge

Preparing for what will undoubtedly be another media feeding frenzy, a second judge has been appointed to deal exclusively with the media in the Simpson robbery.

What they didn't tell you is the second judge is Judge Reinhold who hasn't had a decent roll since Beverley Hills Cop.

Size does matter

The United Arab Emirates' upstart Burj Dubai, still under construction, has surpassed the CN Tower as the world's tallest structure with a growth spurt that will end next year with the Dubai skyscraper topping 800 metres.

Burj Dubai now stands at 555 metres, outstripping the CN Tower's 553 metres by the height of a tall man.

A wake for the dead

Morgue examiners in a Venezuelan hospital began their autopsy as usual but soon got a nasty shock: the "dead" man under knife started bleeding and woke up in excruciating pain, according to media reports Tuesday.

Carlos Camejo, 33, was declared dead after a highway accident and taken to the morgue, where examiners began the autopsy with an incision to Camejo's face, but realized something was wrong because the dead didn't bleed. They quickly stitched up the gash.

When his grieving wife turned up at the morgue to identify her husband's body, she found her other half very much alive and with a newly stitched facial wound.

She immediately dumped the new boy-toy and returned the insurance money.

From Russia with love

A Russian region of Ulyanovsk has found a novel way to fight the nation's birth-rate crisis: It has declared Sept. 12 the Day of Conception and for the third year running is giving couples time off from work to procreate.

I wonder if this is a paid holiday?

The hope is for a brood of babies exactly nine months later on Russia's national day. Couples who "give birth to a patriot" during the June 12 festivities win money, cars, refrigerators and other prizes.

Bob Barker should be coaxed out of retirement.

Mybreast

Many mothers are furious over the fact that MySpace has been deleting any photos that portray breastfeeding. The photos are being pulled for violating the terms of agreement, which state that any content that is offensive, illegal or violate the rights, harm, or threaten the safety of any person may be deleted. Many are wondering how images of breastfeeding fits into those terms.

And I'm guessing I'll just have to go back to downloading porn to look at women's tits. The babies were blocking my view anyway.

Tasteless cartoon of the week

I know I'm a day early, but I'm pushed for time. I need a quick and easy post....so....

New release this week

I can't help thinking after witnessing a few things this week. Britany Spears needs a new publicist, or spin doctor, or both. Someone to help her get her timing and confidence back. To use her poor performance at the MTV awards and turn it into a giant marketing tool. She needs the same guy who advises Osama or these guys: D- Drifters- Polka N' Fun. Then all will be right with the world again.

Just look at them.

That's supreme confidence my friends.

It's the day after the day we all remember

Alright if you're eight and under maybe not? That said, remembering 9/11 is fine but, you really need to know.......what the world record is for banana snapping.

Thumb Club

Now we reach the fine line between the Summer and Fall movie season. Yet, Hollywood seems content to churn out both: “Balls of Fury” and “ Half past kiss my ass to Yuma” being recent examples. All to add to the multibillion dollar count already.

Still there are blockbuster gems, like this one, that never found room to plead for your almighty hard earned clam.

Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse

Before you watch this, a personal apology to Reg. Apparently "Chocolate Rain" was just the beginning. This guy is going to keep coming back like Jason.


Felon of Troy

Looking near tears and in a voice fraught with emotion, Toronto Blue Jay, Troy Glaus on Saturday commented for the first time concerning his name being connected to multiple shipments of steroids by an Orlando-based pharmacy that is the subject of a criminal investigation.

Unlike St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Rick Ankiel, who after being linked to shipments of human growth hormone in a New York Daily News story immediately announced he had received all his treatment under a doctor's care, Glaus offered what amounted to an extended 'no comment.'

The 31-year-old did not specify if he would address the subject in more detail at a later date.

I don't know....the last time I looked at the stats Troy wasn't hitting the ball like Barry.

Hope I die before I get old

Researchers at Liverpool John Moores University, whose report appeared in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, studied a sample of North American and British rock and pop stars and concluded they are more than twice as likely to die a premature death as ordinary citizens of the same age.

Really? Did anyone include the Stones or Ozzy in this research?

Good to the last pop

The three companies that sell Orville Redenbacher, Act II, Pop Secret and Jolly Time microwave popcorn are planning to revamp their microwave popcorn formulations to remove diacetyl, which was been linked to cases of bronchiolitis obliterans, a rare life-threatening disease often called popcorn lung, the Associated Press reported on Wednesday.

At least one man who ate several bags of butter-flavored microwave popcorn each day developed a life-threatening lung disease possibly caused by the additive, which gives popcorn its buttery flavor, Reuters reported.

Whew! I'm glad I stuck to huffing glue.

Suit follows suit

Kyla Ebbert, 23, was recently escorted off a Southwest Airlines flight by a male customer service supervisor for wearing the outfit shown in this photograph. The college student and Hooters waitress was later permitted to return to the plane and take her flight, but only after she put up a fuss and adjusted her outfit. She is currently seeking legal representation to sue the airline.

I know how she feels. I was once told to leave a flight after I used my penis to stir GIGC's rye and ginger.....frickin' tight wads.

Scare Air

Nine people were hurt Thursday night when WestJet Flight 80 from Calgary to Halifax suddenly plummeted like an airborne roller-coater as it hit a patch of turbulence.

Paramedics were waiting at Halifax Stanfield International Airport and used food service trucks to lift them into the plane to pull injured passengers from the aircraft.

Seems to me they should have that chick from Hooters on the flight. They could have prevented most of the injuries.

I'd like to be the bigger man

It seems I may have angered some opera fans with my insensitive use of Pavarotti's death for my own personal gain. I am deeply sorry and will do my best to make it up to you....in song.

I see a big silhouetto of a man
Scaramouch, scaramouch it must be Pavarotti
He died from pancreatic - cancer it was tragic
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Pavaratti did Figaro - magnifico

Easy come easy go - will you let him go
Bismillah! No - we will not let him go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let him go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let him go - let me go
Will not let you go - let him go (never)
Never let you go - let him go
Never let him go - ooo
No, no, no, no, no, no, no -
Oh mama mia, mama mia, I never saw that play
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me
for me
for me!!!!!!!!!

I'm not sure, but I think I'm still going to hell?

New release this week

Up to this point in your lives most of you have avoided shoving long metal spikes into your eardrums, but now Gary Dee Bradford- Sings for you and you and you....Oh and I can't forget you. Maybe Pavarotti wasn't so bad?



WILL YOU STOP FUCKIN' LOOKING AT ME KID!!!!!

Special Chuck Norris Thursday

Luciano Pavarotti vs. Pancreatic cancer

Who ya got?

Got to say, Pavarotti was looking a little like either a wax figure or Mr. French from Family Affair....Yup, I'm going to hell.

Pavarotti's dead, but you need to know.....

How to break a beer bottle with your bare hands.

Celeb morph

Man! That's one scary-ass-psyco-down syndrome, chick. Not really. It's half of Paris Hilton's face morphed with half of Jessica Simpson. If you want to check out what other celebs would like like after they've been thrown into a Brundle Pod -*note: obscure Cronenberg "Fly" reference.- Go here.

BTW ever wonder what Ol' Strange would look like morphed with Jose Marrone? Wonder no more. Cheeeeee!


Ugh! That's one Pandora's box that should have remained closed....that and the Queen/Elton John pic.

So..how'd you spend your long weekend?

All as I can say is, thank God the Mayor finally got someone else to get up on the stilts this year for the Mitchieville Labour Day Parade. It was also my idea, after one too many concussions, to replace the bricks with water balloons. However I was disturbed by the apparent lack of juggling.......no talent hack!

Killing time is over

So all this time and I finally find out the rumours of my imminent demise were all a hoax. There is no killer hunting me down to add me to a collection of the recently murdered. I'm sure I'm not the first man to shit his pants literally at the thought of being snipped into tiny bits...am I?

Back from cowering in soiled undergarments behind the tool shed, I would like to thank Jose Marrone and his lovely wife Pedra for filling in so admirably in my absence. Perhaps we can have them back occasionally when you tire of me. That said, expect them to post sometime tomorrow afternoon.

However, my return is not without purpose. Self serving no less. Do you expect any different from me?

I am back with an announcement and trumpeting fanfare, which may sound more like the horns of flatulence, but none the less, here it is.

Not since Pink Floyd had the audacity to only play two North American cities for their performance of The Wall, has a band had the balls to follow suit. Private Sector has announced it will play two shows only. November 3rd in Syracuse N.Y. and Toronto, in November with a date (TBA).

In celebration of this announcement, Sector have added two more works to the myspace page. The video for "Sleepless" and the song "The Cure".

Now is the time to get out and support these aging rockers who have proclaimed, anything short of complete success will lead them to opening a dog fighting facility to try and succeed where Michael Vick failed.

Information for Amex front of the line tickets will be forthcoming.
