His life.
Note to all the haters: when His Worship of Ottawa, Larry O'Brien, gets acquitted of the spurious charges leveled against him by that window licker Terry Kilrea it is my prediction, and I am right 57.28 per cent of the time, that Larry O will run for mayor yet again and win by a huge margin.
Tell that to the anonymous posers and posters on ZeroMeansZero.

91...Happy Cinquo de Mayo
Boy, it seems like only yesterday that Corona was on sale at the SuperC.
Cinquo de Mayo is the Mexican National Holiday for Mexicans living in the United States, i.e., it is not a huge day in Mexico, really only big in the state of Puebla [think of St. Jean Baptiste Day; a huge holiday in Quebec, rien in the ROC] but bigger, huger, massiver in Southern California and other environs that have large Mexican populations.
Cut up some lime and have one for me.

90...Moob Season
Note to all citizens of northern climes such as the one I reside in, that being Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
Please respect the fact that you may have gained weight this winter and last summer's summer clothes may be more revealing/less flattering than they were when you were 10, 20, 30 pounds/kilos lighter.
Check in the mirror before hitting the street.
I thank you.

88...Gutless Wonders aka ZeroMeansZero
Ottawa Mayor Larry O'Brien's trial commenced yesterday, Monday May 4, 2009 and the gutless wonders that populate the blog ZeroMeansZero are wetting themselves with joy.
Of course none of them are signing anything with their real names.
These people are the biggest losers extant: at least the people whom they hate on, Mayor Larry, Lowell Green, Steve Madely and so on, have the integrity to sign their names to their work.
Embarrassments to the human race they are, embarrassments.

87...Tuesday on the Radio, Life and Death
I am fortunate enough to be on 93.1CKCU tomorrow at six am.
Daniel Stringer from the Interreligious Council at the UN is going to be with me at about 6 20 and then Doug Hempstead from the Tulip Festival will join me at 6 40.
Plus for the full hour Joel Lemieux from http://www.ottawabroker.com/ to explain the ins and outs of Life and the insurance thereof.
It is important, eh?

86...The Team1200
Is a local Ottawa all sports station. For those of you unfamiliar with Canadian radio and TV, direct competition is an anathema to the governing body of broadcasting in the Great White North. The Canadian Radio and Television Commission is bureaucracy and superciliousness taken to the next level. Therefore, unlike the land down under the 49th, there will never be two of anything trying to serve the same market and demographic in this country on the radio dial if the CRTC can help it.
In Ottawa that means we have one country station, one all news station, one sports station etc. Our sports station is The Team 1200 and it is sooooooo random.
Please bear in mind this is really a one sport town and that sport is hockey, National Hockey League hockey. Everything else pales in comparison.
Here is what is cool about The Team 1200. Saturday afternoon they had the Washington/Pittsburgh NHL playoff game on and allowed the full feed, with Pittsburgh local adverts and id's and everything. It felt so local on two levels, an Ottawa level and a Western Pa. level.
Here is what is random.
Sunday when the Detroit Red Wings were playing Anaheim Ducks The Team 1200 ran...no hockey, no local feed from Detroit or Anaheim, no cut ins just a talk show from either ESPN or FoxSports where they were talking about college and NFL football. One, and I am one, would think at the very least you could find some Eastern Ontario or Western Quebec motormouth who would talk about hockey for like 12 dollars an hour but noooooooooo they just run a feed from the States talking about stuff that, well, I am interested in but most in Ottawa are not.
Not hating, just stating and wondering, that's all.
