Take off!
Who Gives A Flying Fuck About Celine Dion? Air Canada laid off thousands of workers during its restructuring. Unionized workers gave up more than $1 billion a year in salaries and benefits and made many concessions in working conditions. Then yesterday morning, at Toronto's Lester B. Pearson Airport, Celine Dion appeared at a big party for the airline's employees. Dressed in the new Air Canada uniform of Midnight Blue with Silver Sky lining, the skeleton that breathes sang three songs, including,"You and I Were Meant to Fly." I saw this bullshit last night on the news and wondered what the hell Air Canada CEO Robert Milton could be thinking, considering the airline just emerged from 18 months of bankruptcy protection. How much did they pay that money-grubbing media whore Celine Dion? It had to be millions. It's enough to make the average person boycott the bastards. If I ever fly again I know I'll think twice before I'll fly on an airline that values a multi-millionaire non-talent over its own employees. Air Canada thinks it's in take-off mode but if others see yesterday's little publicity stunt the same way I do, the airline could be in for another crash landing.
Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair
 See now, all Jennifer C. had to do was shake her hair loose, and she could have avoided much scorn. Jennifer Crisafulli, the most recent victim of The Donald's cobra-like firing, has a new website, and it's gonna be yooge.  Fans of the show might want to check it out. It even features a quote from Donald Trump! Mind you, it's a flattering one: "She's very tough and she is very smart." Nothing about how easy it was to fire her. No comments from Carolyn telling her to keep her fucking yap shut. Of course her website is all spin, with nothing about her recent real life firing, for making anti-semitic remarks, from the Manhattan firm where she was a real estate agent. An official with the Manhattan firm Prudential Douglas Elliman said Thursday that Crisafulli, a 32-year-old real estate agent with the firm, would not be welcomed back because of comments she made on Wednesday night's episode of "The Apprentice." ...
"I'm so upset," she said. "I mean, my career is gone."
The 1990 graduate of the Academy of the Holy Names was shown on "The Apprentice" Wednesday making disparaging remarks about two women whom she believed gave a negative review to a restaurant her team opened. The team lost and project manager Crisafulli was later fired by star Donald Trump.
"It was those two old, Jewish fat ladies," she told teammates. "Really. They were like the pinnacle of the New York jaded old bags."
Elliman received calls Thursday protesting the remarks. Crisafulli believes most complaints came from "jealous brokers." The full story.
I'm a Barbie girl, in a Barbie world
 Was soooo glad to see clueless bitch Jennifer fired tonight on The Apprentice. At least you got to meet Mike Piazza, asshole. Ha ha ha! I disliked her on sight just for her outdated hairstyle alone.  She looks like Barbie from the 1950s. Those women are so useless. In the beginning, Pamela ("The Penis") was smart to side with the men, especially considering how whiny all the chicks were about the prospect. "Boys are scary." :: giggle :: I disliked Raj at first, having dismissed him as a Tucker Carlson wannabe, but he has grown on me and I hope he goes far in the show, if only to see his full array of bow ties.  What's with "Little Stacy" R, also known as The Munchkin? Stacy, you would command more respect if you wore a suit that fits, in a colour other than black, and got a real haircut. Just because you fit in Mommy's clothes doesn't mean you should play dress-up on national t.v.  I also caught Lost, and had no idea LOTR's Merry was in it (playing a drug addict nonetheless). I liked how the prisoner turned out to be Kate, and that was a nice twist with the cop being the guy with the shard of metal in his torso. The big guy was cool. It's nice to see a variety of characters, although I've yet to see any ugly women. It's too bad I missed the pilot episode. I can imagine BeX is in heaven with all the recurring plane crash scenes.
Butterflies and Peanut Butter
 This afternoon my son goes for his second day of Kindergarten, and I'm still nervous for him. I have no idea why. He LOVES school, and would probably enjoy full days if they were available. So why can't I stop feeling the anxieties I suffered as a child? I felt nauseous every morning in grade school. Fortunately, I've not passed on any stress to him. His only worries have been that Mommy won't let him take a sword to school, and we can't drive to Tim Horton's for doughnuts because Daddy has the car. My only real concern is what to pack the boy for a snack, because he's one of those kids who will eat virtually nothing but peanut butter. Because there are children out there in the world with deadly allergies, peanuts have become anathema in our times. Peanuts are banned from his school. I don't know if there are actually any children in the school who are allergic. There are permanent anti- peanut signs throughout the school, so it doesn't seem to matter either way. Now, I wouldn't make light of a situation where a child has a deadly peanut allergy, but why are peanuts being automatically banned whether it's necessary or not? Oh yeah, lawsuits. Pity the poor peanut farmer. In an entirely unrelated note, have you ever heard of the band Dead Chretiens? Here is the Dead Chretiens Official Website.
monty python - lego style
Monty Python, Lego-styleBravely bold Sir Robin rode forth from Camelot. He was not afraid to die, oh brave Sir Robin. He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways, brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin. He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp, or to have his eyes gouged out, and his elbows broken. To have his kneecap split, and his body burned away, and his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin. His head smashed in and heart cut out, and his liver removed, and his bowels unplugged, and his nostrils raped and his bottom burned off and his penis split...
