Top Ten Things You Don't Say To A Traffic Cop
1. I can't reach my license unless you hold my beer. (OK in Texas)2. Sorry, Officer, I didn't realize my radar detector wasn't plugged in. 3.Aren't you the guy from the Village People? 4. Are You Andy or Barney? 5. I thought you had to be in relatively good physical condition to be a police officer. 6. You're not gonna check the trunk, are you? 7. Gee, Officer! That's terrific. The last officer only gave me a warning, too! 8. I was trying to keep up with traffic. Yes, I know there are no other cars around.. That's how far ahead of me they are. 9. When the Officer says "Gee .Your eyes look red, have you been drinking?" You probably shouldn't respond with,"Gee Officer your eyes look glazed, have you been eating doughnuts?" 10. I saw you turn on your flashers when you went through that red light a few miles back. Lets call it even.

"Boogeyman" Number One At The Boxoffice
Despite incredibly bad reviews, "Boogeyman" trounced the competition at the boxoffice over the weekend. Obviously, there's still a big demand for mysterious spooky bad guys.

The promise of chills and thrills continue to drive young audiences into theatres.

There is some dispute, however, as to what is actually delivered in this film.

The Greatest Music Of All Time
Very soon, I will be compiling my top 490 songs of all time. Why not 500? Well, Sony's Atrac software only burns 490 melodies on a single CD.

I have listened to thousands of songs from the 1930s to present time. Every era produce its own hits.

The song list will be placed on a separate webpage with references concerning the tunes.

Hope you enjoy this star-studded material.

The Top Songs Of All Time
Mood:

cool
These would be songs that you can listen to hundreds even thousand of times.

Since 1940, there might be 1500 hundred songs that might fill that description. While there have been many good songs over the last 25 years, I can't see them amounting to 1500. Can you remember the top number one songs over the last five years?

Songs express just about every mood and experience of the human condition. We can feel very intensely about different things even funny stuff. Check out "novelty tunes" when you get the chance.

Groundhog Day 2005
Mood:

down
A groundhog is simply a squirrel on steriods.

Like most experts, they disagree with each other. The ones in Nova Scotia and Pennsylvania predict six more weeks of winter while the ones in Ontario and Alberta predict an early spring.

We spend millions on weatherforcasting and then leave it to a rodent to look into his crystal ball.

Not only is this crap. It's boring crap. The Bill Murray movie("Groundhog Day") was more interesting than any real Groundhog Day, past or present.
Retire Groundhog Day And Groundhog Forecasters

The Iraqi Election Reviewed
Mood: a-ok
Over 60% voted in the Iraqi election which was in a similar range to the Canadian and U.S. elections.

The electorate showed great bravery in turning up at the polls despite death threats. They followed the words of Popeye towards bullies. "That's all we can stands. We can't stands no more."

I was touched by the heroism of those who could have been very intimated by the terrorists"

"Remarkable scenes became commonplace as voters in wheelchairs and others who were deaf, blind or clearly in poor health made their way to vote".

"When I got up this morning at 5 a.m., there were voters already outside waiting to vote", Lieutenant Saad Sarhan of the Baghdad police said as he ushered a visitor around the polling station in the Huda Girls' School in a mainly Shiite suburb of the capital. Five stars.

The Ultimate In Canadian Boring Entertainment
Seen any really boring sports on TV like darts, bowling or golf. Those might make somebody's top ten list of boring TV sports, but right at the top would probably be curling.

Curling is something that Canadians are good at.

Check out the top Canadian curling teams at CBC Sports Curling

Also, take in a Canadian movie on this sport called Men With Brooms It's not about male witches. It's about curlers, Canadian ones at that.
