Hi folks,

I would recommend that anybody who comes across this particular blag entry should disregard what they're about to see. The thing is, I'm a bit tattered up right now and usually, the more tattered I get, the more I want to be somewhere other than where I am. So, what does it all mean, Basil? Basically, what it means is that I want to travel and I have travel on the mind, so for this blag post, I'm going to cater to my own personal travel desires a la text.

In no particular order (and off the top of my head), a list of cities (including surrounding areas) that I must visit before I die:

• Berlin, Germany.
• Madrid, Spain.
• Stockholm, Sweden.
• Moscow, Russia.
• Baghdad, Iraq.
• Prague, Czech Republic.
• Istanbul, Turkey.
• Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
• Copenhagen, Denmark.
• Buenos Aires, Argentina.
• Auckland, New Zealand.
• New Dehli, India.
• Warsaw, Poland.
• Nairobi, Kenya.
• Cairo, Egypt.
• Zurich, Switzerland.
• Oslo, Norway.
• Vienna, Austria.
• Kabul, Afghanistan.
• Rome, Italy.
• Budapest, Hungary.
  
• Pyongyang, North Korea.
• Antarctica.

Ah, there are many more, I know, but that's all I feel like coming up with at this time.

I need to go to bed.

Cheers.

Greetings,

The du Champlain Summer Festival.

It has come to my attention that Manitoba is in dire need of a summer music festival (that isn't the Folk Fest), and being that I have successfully delivered quality aural sex to those in attendance at many a rendezvous, I believe that I am in a position to decide which acts should grace the stage at such an event. (Oh man, that was such a long, smug sentence. Awesome.)

In addition to deciding which musical acts would perform, I would also be enforcing certain rules, such as...

• Races of animals belonging to my alliance will be allowed to freely roam the festival grounds. (Don't worry - they'll bring their own tents.)
• No farting.
  
• Everybody has to have the quesadillas.
• Tony Clifton will be there. Just don't fuck him around.
  
• Each day at high noon, there will be a re-enactment of the time du Champlain got tattered up and started talkin' about people.
• Oh, and this guy won't be there..

• ...but this guy will be:

Now that that's out of the way, I would like to share a sample of some of the musical events that will be taking place...
(Due to circumstances such as death, some musical acts may or may not be appearing at The du Champlain Summer Festival.)

- Simon and Garfunkel will once again join forces to perform "Cecilia","At The Zoo", and "Me and Julio Down By The Schoolyard." Post-performance, Simon will quickly leave, while Garfunkel will stay to talk politics over a few dozen beers.

- Warren Zevon will be there to perform "Werewolves of London", "Lawyers, Guns, and Money", and "A Certain Girl." Zevon will then kick the shit out of the first three rows.

- Three drunk Frenchmen in clothing worn by fur traders will sing a song that is very likely to have inspired du Champlain to further explore the St. Lawrence region.

- The Rolling Stones will arrive by helicopter to play "Gimme Shelter", "Brown Sugar", and of course, "Shattered." Afterwards, Keith Richards will spot Garfunkel in the crowd and will join him for the beer and politics.

- Dom Deluise and The Surfari's will perform "Wipeout," while Deluise cooks a roast.

- Tom Cochrane will please the crowd with "Boy Inside The Man", "Big League", and "Life Is A Highway." He will then reveal that he was never from Lynn Lake, but rather an old mining shaft outside Yellowknife.

- Guy Lombardo and The Royal Canadians will grace the stage each night at 9pm only to finish off a pack of smokes.

- The Magma Trolls will crawl out of the bush and make an unscheduled appearance on Stage Deux. Following the performance, they will be selling potions near the north exit.

...among much more!!

As you can tell by the sampled list, The du Champlain Summer Festival will be an amazing time.

And isn't that what summer's all about?

Cheers to good times ahead and enjoy yourself, it's a celebration.

Hi folks,

Making a blag with this computer really fucking blows, so I'm going to make this post a rather quick one.

Last night's episode of Survivor wasn't too shabby, though I could've done without all the focus on Cirie, who has proven yet again that she is a ridiculously bunk character. The immunity challenge was a good one, I thought. The result was good, as seeing the Favourites head to Tribal Council was exactly what I wanted to see. At Tribal Council, the tempers were flaring between Cirie and Jonathan, which made for some good TV. Surprisingly, the final vote revealed that it was Yau-Man which was to head home. Disappointing, yes, but at least it wasn't Chet.

So... because of the removal of Yau-Man, there is a small change in the pool. Scott (Sir Lovely) takes the hit!

The current standings in the Rockland Wonderland Huddy Futty Survivor Pool are as follows...

[Joe:] - Mary / Ozzy (X)
[Tyler:] - Joel  / Parvati
[Ryan:] - Chet / Johnny Fairplay (X)
[Scott:] - Yau-Man / James (X)
[Billy:] - Ozzy / Joel
[Lesley:] - Mikey B / Ozzy
[Chelsea:] - Natalie / Jason


Go Chet go!

Later.

Hello there,

I thought I'd share some pictures of my most recent trip to Thompson, so that's what I'm here to do. Before I begin, I'd like to let everybody know that the resident laptop is fucked up again. Luckily, a man named Zisca was generous enough to rent out one of his laptops until the usual one returns. It's great, but the laptop is less than perfect. In fact, it makes even a simple task such as re-sizing pictures a pain in the ass. What can you do? Now that that's out of the way, I'll get to some photos.

The Friday night festivities began with Devon and I going to watch some of the boys play a game of shinny at the C.A. Nesbitt Arena. It was a good time that was ultimately highlighted by the amazing play of "Plamondon." Prior to last Friday's game, poor ol' Plamondon had only one point on the season. It's true. After Friday's game, Plamondon had netted another six or seven points. Yes, he had four goals and at least two or three assists. It was a brilliant game by the one man who, arguably, was the worst player on the ice. Due to his great performance, I decided to capture some of the magic of Plamondon on film. He's wearing the Montreal Canadiens jersey.









Good times. The night ended with Devon and I going to Bankside to share some time with local guru, Dan Audet.




The next night, Saturday, a group of us went to a social at the St. Lawrence Hall which turned out to be a dandy of a time. Honestly, I don't remember much of it, so I can't really get into too many details, but I'm sure it was a bundle of fun. I don't think any of these pictures need any explanations. Tattered. Shattered. Afterwards we went to Matt and Brent's place. Good times there, as well.
















Ooh, looks like the night ended kind of rough.

Anywho, friends of Thompson, thanks for hosting another great time. I had a lot of fun.

(After having done this blag post, I can safely say that making a post with this laptop is fucking shitty. Blah.)

Later.

Hello,

I am fuckin' tattered right now, so all I'm going to do is post another list of tunes for the time being. Oh, and the list is in high-rotation on the iPod right now. Now, obviously, most of you are going to gawk at it, but what the fuck, I'm livin' free and that's what she's all about.
