Friday Fun Facts

1. 4 people became sick with e-coli when they drank bad milk. Authorites suspect that the milk was bought from a van somewhere south of Barrie. Who buys contraband milk from a van on the side of the road?

2. Port Hope High School (my stellar post-secondary institute) is having an alumni reunion at the end of July. On the Friday night, alumni from the 1920's to the 60's is invited to gather at The Beamish House. Anyone who attended in the 70's and 80's are to go to Broghan's Lane, and people from 1990 on are asked to go to the Dunkeld. But, "please feel free to visit all venues." I don't think that Port Hope has any other bars that don't sell recycled beer.

Then, on Saturday, for only $30.00 you can go to the big dance at the Jack Burger Sports Complex from 8pm to 1am!!!! There will even be a live DJ and everything! WOW!! Nothing like partying in the local hockey arena.

Finally on Sunday, when you are all tired out from that late night of partying, you can pay $5.00 for a lovely continental breakfast at delectible & delicious Port Hope High School Cafeteria. That's followed by a rededication ceremony (????) and an open church service.

I am not making any of this up.

And no I am not going. It's not worth my $30 dollars to show up at the arena in full leather gear with a red hanky in my pocket with Q on a leash to say a big Fuck You to all the losers who were so cool in high school, but then didn't know what else to do with their lives once they weren't so cool anymore. If it was free - maybe.

3. I have a number of Jewish clients. One them is named Chaim (which is loosely pronounced hyme). I called his office the other day, and when the receptionist answered I said "Hello, is Chaim in?" I almost had blood dripping down my shirt as I clamped down extra hard on my tongue to stop from laughing at what I'd just said.

4. I used to love Choose Your Own Adventure books as a kid. I'd read and re-read them over and over again. Got a few good laughs from somethingawful.com who changed the titles of some the books.



5. The Amityville Horror remake is a kick-ass horror movie. Very well done and scary. Not cheesy at all. I don't usually get scared by horror flicks, but this one got me a few times. I've never heard so many screams in a movie theatre in my life (none were from me though!)

I've decided that Ryan Reynolds is my new 2nd boyfriend. In this movie he is ripped, and has this sexy 70's porn star beard happening. They even left some chest hair for me to revel in. It doesn't hurt that he spends part of the film running around in nothing but pyjama bottoms which sit just below his hips.
