Because I'm mysterious. Nobody really knows what I'm going to do next. So, while you're being mysterious behind the scenes, I'll be in front of the scenes being just as mysterious.

Because I'm frank. I don't mangle words. If there's something you need to know, I'll tell you, and there won't be any question about my intentions.

Because I'm a politician. I know what to say to whom and how to say it to elicit the proper response.

Because I'm Canadian. Living in Canada, the second-largest country by land mass, I know how to make someone disappear. I did it to myself once and didn't get homee for six weeks.

Because I have a name few people pronounce correctly. That garners respect.

Because I just used the word "garner". That's key.

Because I'm creative. I'd be willing to bet you didn't think I'd have so many reasons.

NHL

Because in the old NHL, the goalie could come right out to the corner to play the puck and not be hit by the oncoming team. So rather than make the goalies fair game, they just limited where the goalies could play the puck.

On another note, my Sens just got shut out by Boston. BOSTON! That hurt. We're now four points back of Carolina.

Star Wars: Tail of the Tape

1. Which is the lesser of two evils? I'll go director.
2. Guinness (and not just because I like his beer)
3. No question. Puppet
4. Definitely the bikini.
5. Tough Call. I'm going to go against the grain and say Endor.
6. Hayden, but only because Jake was cmpletely unnecessary.
7. Padme. Fett might have died like a punk, but he wasn't a central character.
8. "How are you?" That line cracks me up every time.
9. Jedi. I love the emotion that comes forth in that battle.
10. The March, baby.

who misses the prequels?
Time
I do miss some of the hype. Emphasis on some, though. I mean, I didn't stand in line for ages or see any of them opening night. I do remember the trailers and, particularly, that one poster of the young Anakin with the Vader shadow. But, truth be told, I don't really miss them at all. I rarely, if ever, watch the prequels any more (even ROTS); I thought they all kinda stunk. I think Phantom Menace was my favourite if only because I could distance it from what I considered Star Wars, because the only names that rang a bell were Obi Wan and Yoda.

I'm not hyped for the TV show. I sorta have to go with CO on this one in saying that it probably won't happen. I don't care what McCallum says. Pre-production is but the first step, not a sure thing. And really, it's just using the SW name to sell more toys. Good to know I'll never run short of SW action figures to add to my collection.

It totally is blasphemy. I'm surprised. The teams I thought would do well are doing really well, and the teams I thought would be average are doing above average. Of course, someone has to lose. The teams I thought would struggle are doing worse that I imagined. My Sens were a safe bet, though.

I understand and respect your opinion, but far too many people just say that without really having reason. Sask, yes, did elect 12 of 14 conservatives, most of those votes, though, are rural. It's interesting to see that nationwide, too. No longer is it Liberals east and CPC west. Now, it's Liberals and NDP in the cities, and Conservatives in the rural regions (a generalization, of course). Even here, you see that. If the cities in SK were seperate ridings, we probably would see an NDP or two. Instead, Saskatoon is broken up into four ridings, each quadrant sharing a riding with a large chunk of rural land.

Take off, eh? YOU HOSERS!!!


No, don't pick that one.....that could be the one, eh?


I hate people who don't look at the issues before making an important decision. I think there's way more brou-haha over Stephen Harper than is necessary. How can people hate him? He doesn't hold near as much power as people seem to think. Perhaps I just hate people who voice baseless opinions.

Extras in films thread- Post Screencaps
Time
I haven't been in a movie, but I was in two episodes of "Heart and Soul"

Now you're all saying, "What the heck is 'Heart and Soul'?"

It was a hospital drama filmed in my home city a couple years back, trying to capitalize on the popular tv of the day. It had a psychic doctor or something. I was a patient in one episode and a man on the street in another.

Problem is, though 13 episodes were shot, and I was in #10 and #13, the show never aired in Canada, and in the States, it was cancelled after only 8 episodes. All for naught, my work was. Oh well, I got paid.
