Red, White and Blue death - The latest plague

2007-12-22T17:03:00.000-08:00

The American health care system. One of the seven wonders of the world. How can the American dream possibly not being able to keep your house cause your damn insurance company makes you sell it because you can't afford to pay your bills for your broken back because you got a paper cut 20 years back you didn't tell them about.

I was watching Sicko by Michael Moore, and a health care system let somebody die because they would make 500,000 dollars. This isn't like a soldier who kills everyone to get payed base wages. This is in the middle of a country's "golden age". It's funny how lots of people liked George Bush and voted him in (and I'm talking about his first term, not his second) and he was payed to turn blind eye to this stuff.

So basically, as most of you probably have guessed, I'm trying to say Merry Christmas!
George Bush sure puts the "Jesus 'Christ' will I make it to the next Christmas?" in Christmas!
If you have any American friends, make sure to buy them Sicko as a present. Perhaps it'll convince them to move to Canada!

Cats In Boxes - Michael

Cats in boxes!

One of the reasons I love the holidays is wrapping presents... the cats always seem to know how to make the dull wrapping much more fun! My cats Milo and Boots seem to get into everything, and with only my cell phone I filmed this little video to show you all what I mean.
Please note this video has very loud sounds, make sure your speakers are at a comfortable listening volume.

Buses dressed like Rudolph

This surprised me, but it also annoyed me! Well, Mainly because there was only one bus that I saw and at that time my phone was out of battery but I will put up a beautiful picture that I drew in a few hours...

Sales People...

Well, I guess it really has something to do with the holidays... but I still think its stupid that there is 2 customers and 6 sales people around the iPod table... I guess there really trying to get rid of the iPods.. But i was trying to get a look, and well, there was no way to get past the wall or sales people! Guess Paris isn't getting an iPod from me for Christmas... I really don't think he would have gotten one from me anyway!

Paris Challenged me Today - Michael

2007-12-06T19:00:00.000-08:00

Well... This all comes back to the McDonalds argument (McDonalds Post 1, McDonalds Post 2)
This is how the conversation went... Well, kinda

Paris: Do you know what I really like?
Michael: What?
Paris: Those vending machine cookies!
Michael: You know those are worse then McDonalds?
Paris: No there not!!! There so good and chewy...
Michael: They taste like dirt... and do you know what else is chewy...? FAT! They are like 1/4 fat!

There was also something in there about me being super cool and super smart!
But back to the point...
Vending Machine cookies like "Famous Amos" contain 40% of your daily value of Trans/Saturated fat!
My Mcdonalds Meal... 55%
But... My McDonalds meal is 234 g compared to the 56 g of cookie you get!

Is trans fat bad for you? Because... Wow! McDonalds only has 1g of Trans fat compared to The cookies 4 g

I would say McDonalds is much better!

Become a Super Cool Awesome Facebook Fan - Michael

Click here to be a super cool awesome fan on Facebook!

I too have made my self a Facebook account, and when I heard about Facebook mobile, I got even more excited! So I decided to give in and make a Facebook account... All my friends said its great and that its such better then MySpace! But my application list has to be 3 pages long just so can could view everything on my friends profiles. Stop Facebook from turning into MySpace! I wouldn't blame you if you didn't become a fan just because Facebook is turning into MySpace, but, if you have Facebook, Why not??

Well... I'll be! - Michael

Well Paris, why do you think they have so many... because we all love it! Admit it! We all do!

"Essentially, we shop where our customers shop - only our shopping basket is just a bit bigger! We purchase and serve the same quality ingredients and products our customers use at home, supplied by brand name companies Canadians know and trust."

Quote from http://mcdonalds.ca/en/food/quality.aspx

With only 29g of fat you cant go wrong! Or try the non cheese option with only 24g of fat!

I'm shovin' it (guess where!) - Paris

2007-12-04T21:18:00.001-08:00

I went on a shopping trip and saw at least 5(hundred) McDonalds. Actually, you know what? I think I'll call mcdonalds, you capital monsters! (just so you guys know, I uncapitalized it)
Anyways, I noticed we have an empty room in our house. I'm worried that if we don't fill it up soon, we might get an infestation of mcdonalds. I hear not even the most elite of terminators - environmentalists - can get rid of them!

You want to know what I really really want? For you to retire - Paris

I heard some Spice Girls tickets were going on sale for around 1700 dollars. For that much money I could buy a laptop, pirate a video of their concert, and watch it on my recently bought 40" high definition flat screen TV. Where it would be closer, easier to hear, and better quality, from the comfort of my home, where beer doesn't cost 10 dollars. Well, that doesn't matter, because I hate beer. But I know you like it.

Besides, their music isn't even that great. If I asked you right now if there was any musician(s) you like more than the Spice Girls, would you really say no? Would you even feel proud of saying no?

7-million dollars for an old car - Paris

2007-12-03T19:03:00.001-08:00

The fourth ever built Rolls Royce just sold for 7-million dollars. The car is 80 years old. Maybe 50. Whatever.

But the fact of the matter is: who cares? with 7 millions in my Swiss bank account (that is, the one that will be mine eventually [I got lots of stolen paintings to hide]) I could buy a 5 million dollar house in Malibu, buy 5 condos in Vancouver, rent them out for 1500 each a month, and retire. Or, I would retire once I was legally an adult.

Life isn't fair sometimes.

Some Feet Talk - Combined Post

2007-12-01T23:11:00.000-08:00

Feet, Feet..

What can't they do?

They can walk, and in a way they call also talk, in their own feet like way. I don't mean to sound strange, and hopefully this won't get our blog to a bad start, but I mean it. But sometimes while I'm walking, I can almost hear my feet saying, give me a voice! Like, a book about the Lorax. He speaks for the trees, you know. And so we start our new blog. I hope this made sense. Come back later, because our posts will be funnier, longer, and most importantly, make sense. Mostly. Sometimes. Well, maybe once in a while.
