Seriously.

Apparently People Magazine has determined that Ryan Reynolds is the world's sexiest man.

Um, when you Google The World Famous Dan Shields doesn't my image come up?

Oy vey.

3105...I Need A Favour

Or, if you are a Yank, a favor.

Write a Christmas Song. Better idea, write 59 of them.

I am trapped at a mall for a bit, The Rideau Centre in Ottawa if you must know, and they are rolling the soundtrack of Christ's birthday and I swear I have not heard a song written after the
Louis St. Laurent epoch.

Please help!

3104...Democracy Prevails Over Sarah Palin

This just in from the BBC:

Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski has won re-election, defeating a Republican candidate backed by the Tea Party.

Ms Murkowski was defeated in August for the party nomination by Joe Miller, who had been endorsed by ex-Governor Sarah Palin.

Ms Murkowski told supporters to write her name on the ballot, and is the first candidate to win a so-called write-in bid for Senate since 1954.

Kewl, eh?

3103...The Battle Of The Neo-Cons

Self righteous shields in place, neo-cons Ezra Levant, writer and QMI Agency columnist and Green Party Leader Elizabeth May squared off Saturday evening in a debate over whether Alberta’s oilsands are ethical.

Laura Payton in the Toronto Sun reported that the two titans of I-know-better-than-you squared off in Ottawa at the Library & Archives Canada. Note to both, y'all used fossil fuel to get to the debate site.

Mr. Levant said something rather smart at the debate, remarking that "If we want to improve the ethical character of the world’s oil industry, we should produce more and take market share away from the bad guys."

Ms. May countered with "Saying we’re so much better than the others isn’t very relevant." Uh, yes it is.

3102...Peter McKay: Total Props

According to Glen McGregor in this day's Ottawa Citizen

"A human rights activist and former beauty queen who recently made headlines for dating Defence Minister Peter MacKay has pulled out of a conference advocating Western military intervention in Iran.

Nazanin Afshin-Jam was to speak today at the event in Washington, D.C., organized by Freedom Watch U.S.A., a conservative group led by a political pundit who calls himself a one-man Tea Party.

Yadda, yadda, yadda."

Google the name.

Nazanin Afshin-Jam

Love him or hate him, the Honourable Peter MacKay has game.

Game.

Prince William should be so talented.

3101...Hero Dog On Oprah Then Murdered

Apparently they don't watch Oprah at the Pinal County Animal Care and Control coz they killed one of Oprah's stars on Monday. Doggies name is Target and he was all over the tube, including Oprah, for saving a bunch of soldiers in Afghanistan from a suicide bomber.

On Friday the shepherd mix took off from his owner, it happens, was picked up, it happens, taken to the shelter.

Reuters reports that then some dumb ass unnamed employee who should be fired yesterday, did not follow the rules regarding killing dogs at the shelter and had Target killed.

S, O and B.

3100...Gemini In The Trash

Richard Foot of Postmedia News tells that Mike Clattenburg of Halifax "...took the golden Gemini Award he won in 2005 for his work as creator of the cult TV hit Trailer Parke Boys, and carried it out like a piece of trash to the curb outside his home. Then he 'tweeted'to the world that the stature was sitting there on the sidewalk, for anyone who wanted it."

He was pissed after watching Sats broadcast of the awards, a broadcast that put Holmes on Homes at number six on the list of most popular shows of all time, uh, most popular Anglo Canuck shows of all time.

Neil Raynsford, who runs trailerparkboys.com, scored the impressive door stopper a few minutes after Mr. Clattenburg's tweet.
