Zany 'Nucks Claim: "We Led NATO Missions"
1999-06-16 14:11:08
It wasn't bad enough that Canadia had to go and invent circus peanuts, Tim Allen and that "Are You Being Served" show on the television; now they're claiming that they were the big leader of dropping bombs on the Yugoslavia.
With only 18 jets in a fleet of some 800 warplanes, the Canadian government is framing their Serbian involvement in glowing terms of heroic Nuck battle against the sinister forces of Milosevic. "We are the leader of the world" is what the Canadians are saying.
It is sort of like in World War II how the Nucks are always saying, "We are the people who stopped Hitler." And then you tell them that, no, they did not stop Hitler. The Nucks were bogged down with Monty in the north the whole time while the Americans were slugging through the Ardennes. "Yes," they say, "but Dieppe..." Haw Haw! Dieppe!
Anyway, now they are claiming to be the best fighter pilots ever, so go figure this out. Also, the Canadian generals are saying that even though they led the whole invasion with their 18 planes, no Nuck dropped any bomb on any civilian ever.
"We're not aware of any significant civilian damage or deaths from Canadian attacks," said some Nuck.
Silly Nucks! No porridge for you!

Ah, it's that special time of year again. Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose, crowded, dangerous streets filled with maniac shoppers rushing to the mall to buy Pokemon action figures, and getting hammered at the Xmas party and insulting the boss's hair weave. That's right: it's time to drink heavily and wait out life's little nagging miseries, holiday variety. Pigdog is here to help. (More...)

A Treatise Prepared for the Gallup Organization on the Symbolism of the Scarab
Well dahlings, the response to my new tarot column has been quite overwhelming. I got three whole pieces of mail requesting my arcane insight. One asked why blogs suck so much, and one was a completely incomprehensible tale of bears shitting random numbers in the woods — I am fairly certain it was a cryptographic allegory. Howsomever, only ONE of the inquiries was accompanied by a crisp ten-dollar bill, and so it's the Gallup Organization that will this week reap the benefit of my wicked pack of cards. (More...)

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
