Dear CHBC

with one comment

If you can’t show un-bias political segments, split from Canwest Media and shack up with Fox. You’ll enjoy each other’s company.

Sometimes I wonder why I bother watching. I guess I’m just a bit of a sadist.

Computers Imitating Politics

without comments

While looking through Event Viewer logs on a few servers today, I came across this gem:

The master browser has received a server announcement from the computer COMPUTERNAME that believes that it is the master browser for the domain on transport NetBT_Tcpip_{AF4FC9E2-13C7-E47B-A. The master browser is stopping or an election is being forced.

It seems the server was trying to keep in line with Canadian Politics, however it got the outcome a little wrong.

A Tribute to the Ugliest Man on the CBC

Believe it or not, this is a *good* picture!

“WAAAAHGHGHAAUUUAG!” is the closest aproximation to what came out of my mouth. “I think I’m sterile now! All of my sperm commited suicide just to be certain that there’s a slightly less chance that something that ugly will ever be born again!”

I need alcohol. Lots of alcohol.

Update: Just when you think the CBC has cornered the ugly market, CTV has to throw their hat in the ring with Craig Oliver:

Move over, Harvey - this is the real Birdman!

Move over, Harvey - this is the real Birdman!

On Serious Business

without comments

One would think that after watching a day of election coverage, and watching my party-of-choice come in fourth overall, I’d comment on it.

Instead: Best Article Title Ever! “A little pee came out: Ars reviews the scares of Dead Space“.

Classic!
