Right there in black and white

So, a week ago, the Ottawa Petfinder asked the musical question, Does anyone like Nickelback?, in a story that stated, and I quote:

"On American prime-time TV, 30 Rock's writing team had proven the easiest dramatic shorthand for "egregious knob" was to show a character enraptured by the prospect of raising his Bic to the arena-rock strains of How You Remind Me."

And today, the Glob's Jane Taber (bless her inkstained li'l heart...) put a face on that egregious knob, with PMO flack Dimitri Soudas confirming it.

Having to buy a new keyboard after snerting hot Kona all over the old one? Totally worth it...

Kicked out of a concert

Okay, so in my defence, I hafta admit that I was distracted when I read the poster. I thought it said "Emo-fest".

Upside: Biggest damn drumsticks I ever saw.

Downside: Biggest damn drumsticks I ever saw. Testy damn birds, and man, can they kick!

Happy Easter

Ah, Cute bunnies, I thought to myself. Then I noticed the carrot.

Mannequin Monday - Paris Edition

XUP took this picture for me while in Paris.


She tells me that, this mannequin is in the window of the Louis Vuitton store and she floats slowly up and down - ostensibly* because of the Louis Vuitton balloons tied around her hands.

It seems that the mannequin that I thought of as being clownish is actually in synchrony with Paris high fashion.

*Ever notice how XUP likes to use swellegant words? I like that about her.

All I'm gonna say about that...

... what with a comprehensive comment thread over on XUP's blog, would be to thank Aggie fulsomely for a stunningly appropriate binder clip. You rock, ma'am! As ever.
