Buh Bye Bubbles...

...so the Bubbles Mansion in Halifax is closing down. http://thechronicleherald.ca/Metro/1173909.html

I gotta say, i'm not overly disapointed as it was my least favorite bar in the entire city.

Healthy?...

...so I read today that Green Tea might be linked to liver disease. http://thechronicleherald.ca/NovaScotia/1173727.html

The article states that too much green tea extract has been proven to cause major liver complications. This confirms something I've said for years....too much of anything is bad! My Father, the Oceanographer, told me just this weekend that be it actual medication or just supplements from the health food store, it's not what you take that kills you, it's the dosage. You can die from drinking too much water so this article is no surprise to me. I know lots of people who claim that taking herbs and other natural supplements is far better than medication...here's another reason why they would be wrong. I don't think taking supplements is a bad thing...but neither is taking a Tylenol from time to time either. My point has always been that just cause it's "natural" or comes from the health food store, doesn't mean it's healthy. Again...it's the dose you take that makes all the difference in the world.

So there...I'll stick to my coffee, thank you very much!

Recalculation...

...so apparently Mr. Hurlburt gets $54,000/yr pension instead of the $41,000 that was originally reported. Here's the article: http://thechronicleherald.ca/Front/1172580.html

I don't get it...they can steal money, do what they want, not have ANY repercussions and walk away set for life. Makes absolutely no sense to me! Actually, it makes me mad! The rest of the world struggles to make a living during recession times and then we have to read about our tax money going to pay for criminal activity. If I go in the mall, take a TV and a Generator, use it for my personal stuff, I don't get a big fat pension to reward me for my actions! I'm sorry, but this hardly seems fair. He quit...he should be forced to forfit some pension moneys and work like the rest of us do for the rest of his life. This is just rewarding bad behavior. He can call it "an error in judgement" all he wants...I don't buy it. He's a smart man so don't give me excuses for being temporarily ethically stupid. \

I'm annoyed.

Now Serving?...

...so I was in Pubnico today and as I drove by the Creamy Treat, couldn't help but notice the sign. Did anyone else drive by at about 10AM? Well if you did there's no way you could have missed the new ice cream flavor advertised for all to see..."Penis and Tatas" :) Gotta love teenagers who think it's funny to re-vamp signs during the night....hehehe...actually I found it super funny and nearly drove off the road in laughter.

I wonder if you can order "Penis and Tatas" in large sizes?

And here we go again...

...so Richard Hurlburt and Frank Anderson aren't out of the news yet. Here's what the Vanguard posted in today's online edition:

"The Town of Yarmouth will be dealing with a possible conflict of interest at its April 8th meeting of council.


Councillor Martin Pink is alleged to have participated in discussions, moved motions and voted on a matter involving a company that he was the recognized agent for.

The matter involves $150,000 spent to extend a sewage line to a vacant property on Jarvis Road in the Town of Yarmouth.

The property is owned by a company named YARCO, with principles listed as Frank Anderson and Richard Hurlburt" (http://www.thevanguard.ca/News/2010-03-12/article-902915/Council-to-examine-allegation/1)

The Claw....

...so I felt like an idiot this morning. I get out of the shower and pull the shower curtain to hide the shower like every morning. This time, after it's shut, I bent over to dry my legs and when I stood up I heard a pop. No worries...it wasn't my back...it was the shower curtain holder thing that popped off the rod and actually nearly broke. Now I assume at this point your wondering how on earth that could happen....now look up at the title of my post.....laughing yet??? hahahaha...yes, when I stood up, the shower curtain got stuck between my butt cheeks and, like hand, it grabbed it and pulled it off the rod. Oh good god...did that seriously just happen?! What the heck?? Anyways, thankfully I didn't break anything and I just put it all back together and it's over...but seriously...is there any need? hahahaha...atleast I can laugh about it....and now all of you are laughing too.

Vajazzling...

...so one of my friends brought this article to my attention: http://thechronicleherald.ca/ArtsLife/1171808.html

Now you can have little jewels glued to your hoo-hoo in little patterns to spice up your life...hehehe...they call it Vajazzling! Well what next? Here's a quote from the article that just cracked me up:

"Vajazzling involves having little Swarovski crystals glued to a downstairs region, which has been freshly shorn by a Brazilian wax.

The finished product can be anything from a small cluster of sparkles to intricate patterns, perhaps hearts for Valentines Day or the initials of a lover, and even street graffiti designs.

Remember Spirograph? The patterns? OK, good. Now, think Vulvagraph. "

hahahahahaha...Vulvagraph! here's another one for those men who thought they might be left out:

"And men, stop smiling smugly because it can only be a matter of time before the trend (or some creepy variant thereof) hits you.

I mean, come on. We know that the full lady Brazilian led to a male waxing treatment known as "the back, the crack and the sack." Ouch!

Take a deep breath, men, because who’s to say we won’t see similar crystal treatments applied to you. The treatment could be known as pejazzling."

I guess now it's not enough that we all groom the area...now we have to decorate it too! What a farce LOL!

No song needed in this one...I think all that needs to be said is: Vajazzle, Pejazzle!

ok...

...so I drive by a church in town and there's a big announcement board that reads:
"Free trip to Heaven, Inquire within"

Ok...is anyone else bothered by that? Are they having a mass suicide or something? Here's advice...if you Inquire and they hand you a glass of Kool-Aid, RUN!!

I don't know, but if they're looking for more members, I highly doubt this sign will haul them in! Offer a free Happy Meal....Offer a car wash....offer peace and serenity...offer a kids program....don't offer an all-inclusive trip to see the big guy!

Slightly strange if you asked me...

Mr. Dexter strikes again...

...so our Premier, Darrell Dexter, has yet to re-pay his Barrister fees. He's a lawyer and he used taxpayer money to keep his lawyer license. What on earth would make him think that any of us care he's a lawyer and any of us would want to pay for him to remain one? It's ridiculous! He owes about $10,642.67 cause he started using taxpayer money to pay them in 2006. Here's the article: http://thechronicleherald.ca/NovaScotia/1171407.html

He says that he'll consider paying them back in the future....NO...PAY THEM BACK NOW! The rest of us take loans and lines of credit to pay things when necessary so go to your friendly neighbourhood bank if you don't have the funds and get yourself hooked up with some money! Remember Darrell...this means YOU will have to make those loan payments...not us. Man oh man...some people have some nerve.

Greed...get's ya everytime.

...so i'm sorry to keep this going but I can't help it. Remember Miss Teen USA 2007 with the ridiculous response? Did she not watch Miss Congeniality? Stick to the script..."we want world peace"!

Everytime I need a good laugh I watch this...oh and this is the Jimmy Kimmel clip cause it's wayyyyyy funnier! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEHMA1q-SSM&feature=related

Two Coreys...

...read today in the paper that Canadian Actor, Corey Haim died at the age of 38. So sad...still waiting on the cause of death. The article: http://thechronicleherald.ca/Front/9015565.html

Got my sample...

...so thanks to Charlene, I got my Sweax sample yesterday! It's like a deoderized pad for your armpits so they don't sweat or smell. Who knew?! I haven't tried them yet, but I think I'm gonna try a real test when I do. I'll wear a tight cotton shirt...no worries, it won't be in public so don't panic...and i'll do lots of exercise to really get nice and sweaty...which should only take about 5 minutes and a jog down the driveway...and see if they work. I'll keep you posted. If you want a sample too, go to their website: http://www.sweax.com

Sexy Mother Pucker...

...so last night a few girls went over to my Chatty Friend's house and the Fisherwoman brought some new lip gloss that makes your lips plump right up! It's called Sexy Mother Pucker. hehehe...I know, catchy name, eh? Well...I tell you...this stuff definitely does something! Me and my Breathing Friend (aka Preggo # 2 but she's no longer preggo hence the new name) tried it and we were having a hard time talking with this stuff on! It was real distracting cause our lips were on fire. I figure they swelled up from the allergic reaction that was happening and that's how it works. My Farty Cousin described it as have hot sauce plastered all over her lips....so true. Anyways, I didn't turn into Angelina Jolie, but I did feel a little more plump in the lips.

I guess the verdict would be: It's good if you can stand the intense heat coming off your lips for about 40 minutes...then a little tingling for another 10 minutes.....if not, then stick to regular lip gloss and get lip injections :P

Feel Good Song...

...so I heard this band during Nova Scotia Music Week called Andrew Hunter and the Gatherers. They have this song called, "Feel Good Song" and I just love it! It's catchy and i've heard it on the radio a bunch as well on the Degrassi. Oh and I like their band name too...it's quite clever. Check it out (it's the first one):

Youtube...

...so I was sent a link to a video of a little boy from Korea singing "I'm Yours" by John Mayer. Here's that link if you missed it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yszDATSIemM

Well apparently this kid was a superstar even younger than this with his performance of "Hey Jude" - The Beatles! Listen closely to his lyrics heheheh :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsJCqD4lRc8
