Hot on the heels of Kiefer’s DUI conviction is the release of his Halloween costume from last year. Someone should’ve seen this coming!

Here’s the anti speeding ads they’re running in Australia. The waving pinky finger is a way of showing that the women think the boys who are speeding have small weiners!

An interesting trend has started…with my new timeslot (for the time being) There are more people to hear my humor and take on life in general. Some folks enjoy it and others find it less favourable. I figured since I’ve started recieving “fan mail” and we’re all in this together I’d share some of the best ones as they come across my desk. Before I share last weeks biggest fan I have to give the back story so the comments will make sense.

The story: Did a poll on people being rude. Particularly how one guy I held the door for didn’t say thank you or even nod in acknowledgment that I had done him a solid. When we went through the second door ( they were doubles) I didn’t hold it for the guy and let it slam in his face. I figured since he didn’t care if I held the door or not then there really wasn’t any point in doing it again for him.

The fan mail: (it was fairly lengthy so i’ve put the excerpts) it started:

“I know now that your station is an equal opportunity employer and you have demonstrated your commitment in this cause by hiring the incompetent and the mentally challenged to sit in your airchairs” ( This one’s about me!! I’ll credit the writer as this was a witty start to the mail)

“the double doors that this imbecile tends to frequent, I want you to understand that had it been me who Brian “Seriously Challenged” Harper had held that door for, at the second door I would have grabbed his shrunken Rogers head and forced it through the glass and left him there to bleed to death. Or at least metaphorically, take it as you will.” ( This also I would’ve given the writer some credit to… but c’mon if you’re going to call names at least get my name right! It’s Robin “Seriously Challenged” Harper!)

So what I take from this is that the writer feels that even if a person doesn’t say thank you or awknowledge that you’ve gone out of your way to do something nice for them you should still do it….otherwise you could get beat up….metaphorically)

Looks like there is still hope for Leaf fans this year. Since they can’t keep the puck out of the net they’ve enlisted a “STAR” goalie. Yes that’s Justin Timberlake. He should fit in nicely with the other pansys!

Or do you see a similarity?

I’m soo excited to see Springsteen this weekend I thought we’d all celebrate together with some Platinum Nation Points! Springsteenweekend is the code! See you at the show! Don’t forget to get you pumped up for the show starting at 5pm tomorrow we’ll go wall to wall Springsteen with the concert before the concert!

This video illustrates clearly to me the mental capacity of someone who loves pop music. And yes I’m jealous the damn bird can dance better than me!

Last week a woman in Windsor won over $500,000 when she picked 14 of 14 football games right. She doesn’t like football and based her picks on “how pretty the proline ticket looked” when she filled it out.

Who would you rather get your picks from?

If you said the first picture just go ahead and make an interesting pattern on that ticket!

If you said the second picture… you can watch her make her picks at her website www.fantasysportsgirl.net
