The Friday time-waster supreme

It’s Friday! In honour of the end of another five days working for the man, here are some completely useless random thoughts.

Ever noticed how some American sports trophies, like the Vince Lombardi or the World Series trophy, lack one key item? You can’t drink out of them. Unlike the Stanley Cup and Grey Cup from which many a delightful beverage has been slurped.

Can someone please tell Jacques Martin that the Brylcreem era ended at least 35 years ago?

In a province where greasy deep-fried potato strips covered in thick gravy and curd cheese has become the fifth food group, why didn’t Krispy Kreme donuts catch on?

Hey, Charest and Tremblay, your electoral status is hanging by a thread. Do you really want to float the idea of another gas tax?

I keep getting these updates from iTunes. When I install them, absolutely nothing changes. If I had to fix my work that often for no apparent reason I’d have been fired years ago.

People are getting very upset that it’s raining in Vancouver this February…just like it has every February for the past fifty thousand years.

The east coast of the United States, including Washington D.C. and New York, have just been pummeled by two massive snowstorms with a third apparently on the way. Meanwhile Montreal has been relatively mild and without any significant precipitation for several weeks. I don’t have a point here, except to say Ha-Ha!

For all those people who smugly remind us that 2010 is not the first year of the next decade, but the last year of the last decade, I have one word for you: eHarmony

All drive-thrus should be built on a downgrade. That way you can turn off your engine when waiting in a big lineup for your double-double.

And finally… Abe Vigoda, still alive. Who knew?

Enjoy your weekend.
