  1. CBC says Conservative minority.

    The only silver lining I can see is that the Liberals are likely to change leadership. I just couldn't see them ever regaining power with him at the helm. I'm sure I'd enjoy his company and he's certainly bright but he's just not a leader.

    Who's up next? Bob? Michael? Justin?

    I look forward to Justin's time coming but it's many years off yet.

  2. [color:purple]I'll assume everyone is voting Conservative so that we can finally give those boys the majority they need to get some things done around here!

    You bet yer ass i did. I'm ignoring the sarcasm.

    I'm dissapointed. No sarcasm font.

  3. How one can simultaneously enjoy St. Stephen and vote for Stephen Harper is inexplainable - or at the very least' date=' they're not getting nearly as much out of the music as the rest of us.

    Whatever are you talking about MoMack?

    [color:#CCCCCC]Kinda wish the picture was bigger

    Best post ever.

  4. bradm, I may be unemployed on Oct. 15th, we can do lunch.

    That's pretty much looking like a guarantee at this point isn't it? I heard the Liberals may not get enough seats to maintain official party status. ;-)

  5. ABSOLUTELY. Been doing that for as long back as I can imagine. I've also done "Shower Coffees" but it's nowhere near as relaxing and I always mind myself looking for whiteboard markers so that I can brainstorm something.

    How about this: Ever do the shower beers / sit-down shower combination? I love sitting in the shower with the piping hot water smashing at the back of my neck and an ice-cold can of Guinness in my hand. Pure bliss.

  6. ...is absolutely awesome. I listened to several of their programs today and each time I was impressed with both their selections of music as well as the DJ's insight into said music. If this is the calibre of programming they intend to continue to produce this will hands-down be the best radio station on the air.

    Check it out sometime if you like music.

  7. Willy will you make it out for a guiness?

    I would love to see you

    I'd love to see you too Sheebs; and I certainly do love my Guinness. You say they pour a good pint do you? I guess I'll have to come to judge for myself. I'll see what I can do.

    Yeah Willy come out - I think I'd pee my pants if I saw you twice in less than a week!

    Promise? That idea makes it pretty difficult to imagine missing the show! Hopefully I'll see you there!

  8. I just can't believe I now have longer hair than Willy!

    Yes, I'm sad to admit you now have the trifecta of advantage on me: looks, brains, and now hair. :D I'm very jealous of your long thick hair!

    And it's not just you that has longer hair than me now; it's pretty much EVERYONE. Save for Jean Luc Picard.

    I thought the show was wonderful. Tyler has a beautiful feel for the keys and his solos fell onto the songs like an afternoon sun-shower. Well done as always. I wish I had recorded it.

    It was also great to see everyone; it's been too long since I've been out.

  9. Barenaked Ladies singer, 3 others survive plane crash

    CBC News

    Barenaked Ladies singer Ed Robertson and three others walked away from a plane crash Sunday afternoon in eastern Ontario, police said Monday.

    The float plane crashed into a wooded area near Baptiste Lake, north of Bancroft, early Sunday afternoon while trying to land, said Const. Tracey McDonald of the Bancroft OPP.

    Police confirmed that Barenaked Ladies frontman Ed Robertson was a passenger aboard the small plane.

    No one was injured in the crash and all four were able to walk out of the woods and report the crash, police were quoted as saying in the Belleville Intelligencer.

    Band spokesman Adam Smith told the Intelligencer: "Everyone is fine and that is the important thing."

    Robertson received his pilot's licence in 2005 and hosts a TV show called Ed's Up, documenting his travels by plane.

    It is the second time this summer that a member of the Canadian band has been in the news. Singer Steven Page made headlines when he was arrested in upstate New York and charged with possession of a controlled substance on July 11.

    Court documents allege Page admitted to snorting cocaine in his girlfriend's apartment. Page was taken into police custody, but was later released after posting $10,000 bail. If convicted, he faces up to 5½ years in prison.
