To be that funny a guy's gotta be really, really smart, and I think Sedaris is really, really smart.

bouche forum please.

Ever get the feeling you're on the wrong message board?

Bad news. Man, do I love the CBC.

Was that place gross? I was too hungry to notice. I inhaled my chicken and ribs and I think I ate about four wet-naps and a fork before I stopped.

Hi everyone, I'm a newb around here, I post quite a bit on the other side...anyways... I'm looking to get a pair of Sens tix for a friends birthday who has never been to an NHL game before. Not sure if he's that into it so not sure I wanna spend even face...where can I find people dumping their tickets? I've checked this wacky thing called kijiji and ebay too. 'Spose I'll try craigslist. Any others I should check?

Um...Do you actually know c-towns?

The Ontario class action is for those that bought tickets from Ticketsnow and/or Ticketmaster.

I got Hartford lawns. I also ordered all four Redrocks and SPAC but just got the one pair. Pretty handy getting the Hartford tickets as I will be at work when they go on public sale.

Jojo or JP perhaps. Pm me if you need their phone numbers.

They manage to keep Ontario to Ontario scalping off of ebay don't they?

Ontario attorney general to bring in legislation on ticket overpricing Last Updated: Tuesday, March 24, 2009 | 9:14 AM ET Comments55Recommend38CBC News Ontario's attorney general has pledged to introduce legislation to protect consumers from overpriced tickets for entertainment and sporting events in the province after a fury last month over resale prices on Ticketmaster's affiliated website, TicketsNow. Chris Bentley told CBC News that Ticketmaster has offered some assurances to prevent the resale of tickets on TicketsNow, but company executives weren't prepared to go far enough to meet his demands. "We'll be drafting legislation to deal with these issues concerning access and pricing when tickets are issued and then turn up on the resale market," he said Monday. The Ontario government launched a probe of Ticketmaster's sales and pricing practices after CBC News first reported that tickets for a Leonard Cohen concert in Toronto were being sold for several times their face value on TicketsNow before they went on sale on Ticketmaster. Ticketmaster has been hit with four lawsuits in Canada. They allege the company violated anti-scalping legislation in three provinces, including Ontario. None of the allegations has been proven in court. Ticketmaster insists it has done nothing illegal. Admitted no wrongdoing In February, the company reached a settlement with the attorney general of New Jersey to compensate Bruce Springsteen fans who paid inflated prices for concert tickets. The company admitted no wrongdoing, but agreed to pay $350,000 to the state of New Jersey and to compensate ticket holders to a Springsteen show who were redirected to TicketsNow. Bentley said Ticketmaster executives insist they've stopped pre-sales on TicketsNow and are not diverting their own tickets to the resale market to make a bigger profit. "I asked them to go one step further," he said. Bentley said he wanted Ticketmaster to block the resale of tickets on TicketsNow for concerts in Ontario the way it has in Alberta and Manitoba, but the executives said no. Bentley wouldn't discuss details of the legislation, or whether he wants TicketsNow shut down altogether. He promised the legislation will come soon. http://www.cbc.ca/arts/story/2009/03/24/ticketmaster-bentley.html

I haven't seen them since And Justice For All. Might just go to this one.

Everyone stops.

Hmmmm...my numbers aren't seeming to add up either....

I wish I was free Friday night. Seeing Passchendaele in The Diefenbunker would be a heavy experience that will never come up again.

Derek's right hand makes me scratch my head.

Good one!

Grimskunk and White Cowbell are playing together. Reefer madness.

"Often sold in baggies for as little as $6 for 200 cigarettes, they come with no health warnings or ingredient listings. Young people who buy them are not asked for identification -- as stores selling legal tobacco are required to do -- and the trade is known to be linked to organized-crime networks that also deal drugs, weapons and alcohol." So contraband cigarettes create all these social problems, whereas legal cigarettes have programs in place to reduce these social problems, and contraband cigarettes cost the gov't money while legal cigarettes create gov't revenue. Now where else could we apply this logic?

Where on the site will I find the link? I've looked around to no avail.

Satan must be freezing his ass off!

When I saw this show and debated getting tickets I just knew TimmyB would be going!
