3976...Oh To Be In Regina

At the Queen City Fair.

I have been and as fairs go the Queen City Fair is as good as it gets.

No, it is better.

I was reading Peter Mills in the Leader-Post over coffee this morning and found this delicious piece of news. The doughnut burger has landed on the Prairies.

Here is what ten bux will get you. "...a burger, cheese, and bacon in between a honey-glazed doughnut...”

Mouthwatering.

"The doughnut burger, also known as the Luther Vandross burger, has found fame in recent years thanks to people like Duchow and donning the cover of a book named This is Why You’re Fat."

Recent years? How did the WFDS miss this? I am such a Philistine.

3975...Apparently Miranda Lambert Likes Guns

This is a big story in Ottawa.

Imagine my shock.

LOL.

3974...Toronto Star Aims For Pulitzer Prize

In the category "It's Obvious".

The headline, above the fold even, on the front page of the Toronto Star this day is that "Canada's Must-See List Excludes Capital".

What? The story by Jim Byers indicates that the Canadian Tourism Commissions new Signature Experience Program lists 48 fun things for foreigners to do when in Canada and none of them, not a single one, are in Ottawa.

I live in Ottawa and I have to say it is a great place to live but I don't think I would want to visit here.

3973...Don't Tell Lowell Green About This

Lowell Green is the biggest media star in Anglo Ottawa and not a fan of the Muslim community.

So do not tell him about what is in the current Atlantic.

Gallup survey shows Muslim-Americans more likely to say targeting and killing civilians is always wrong than any other American religious group.

Don't wanna colour his sky blue.

3972...Perhaps She Should Wear A Helmet

So I am reading the Carlsbad Current-Argus over my afternoon coffee and learn a fun piece of information. Bojana Jovanovski is the 53rd best woman in the world tennis wise but not a geographical whiz. The Serbian star went to Carlsbad, Arizona this weekend for the Mercury Insurance Open. Sadly for her the Mercury Insurance Open was in Carlsbad, California.

Things eventually got straightened out and she got herself to Cali. Sadly, for the 53rd best player in the world things did not work out; she got schooled by No. 23 Roberta Vinci in three sets 3-6, 6-4and 6-1.

Next stop is Toronto. There are at least seven cities named Toronto stretched across the American Midwest and one in Ontario, Canada. Which one will she choose?

3971...Capital Hoedown Meets CKCU

Tommorrow morning from 7 to 8 Pembroke boy Jason Blaine's career hits its high note when he is interviewed by moi, the WFDS.

Also a serious story about river problems north of the Capital in La Belle.

Be there or be asleep.

3970...Nycole Turmel

Can we take a chill pill here folks?

She didn't spend her college years as a stripper.

Not that that would be wrong.

She didn't steal cars for a living nor did she drown puppies.

All that the former union leader and current head of the NDP did was join a political party, the Bloc Quebecois.

Hey, may be she was a separatist. So now she has changed her mind.

Let's move on.

Calling her a treasonist [I just made that world up apparently] is a big pile of bullsh*t.
