I love that...and the duck lips on the girls...excellent!!!


oh yes, five finger discount

Friend of mine only has 3 1/2 fingers and a thumb. Could he qualify for the discount?
Lost 1/2 his middle finger, really strange way to lose 1/2 a finger. Never heard of losing 1/2 a finger that way before. No sir, really odd way to lose it.

Well you asked.
He had a nose like none other. That nose probably weighed a good 2 lbs, and that would be empty.
Being a flatlander he was not up on the social graces on nose cleaning.
Normally blocking 1 nostril with a finger, in his case his hand, then exhale violently thru the open nostril, expunging the offending blockage.

Not him -

As I mentioned he had a huge one, hair like barb wire would grow out from it. What a sight that was.
No barber would touch that.

He had to use a special made saw to cut em back.

Well he would as they say go digging, and dig deep. So he had to use his middle finger. That being the longest one, at that time.
Well it got caught up in his nose hairs, cut the circulation off. By the time he realized he could not extricate his finger it was to late.
Infection had set in, Doc cut it off just below the nose and left the rest behind.

And I am snot BSing you.

Now I am not going to tell anyone how they got that sucker out either.

Ethical Conundrum #1
Suppose a man whose net worth was $10 000 stole $1000.
Suppose another, whose net worth was $5 000 000, stole $300 000.
Which was the greater crime?

Neither, they are both fricken thieves!

She can't be "fired" unless she is found guilty by law. The only thing that can happen is she is made to sit in the senate as an independent.

Just heard on the 6 o'clock Global news the whole thing is being turned over to the cops!

Since they are government employees the repayment should come out of their solid gold pension plan if they cannot pay it back.

I agree up to a point. There MAY be some honest employees in that pension plan, so theoretically speaking it could hurt some of their pensions. In reality probably only by a few nickels.

Senators and employees of the government are not paid from the same pension plan.
There are some differences as well when it comes to government employees here is
one example.
If you and I have a pension and we get over a specified amount there is a claw back
of the CPP portion of our pension.
When a federal employee gets their government pension they are not able to collect
government pension and CPP even though they paid into it. That is something I found
out about a few weeks ago.
I admit I don't know all the details but that was the understanding I was left with after
asking the question at a gathering.

Apparently the cost of the audit has run past the $100 grand mark. She should be on the hook for that too.

However, Deloitte says Senate rules about residence are unclear.

That is part of the problem...lack of clarity which leaves things open to personal interpretation. What other job allows you to make the rules up as you deem fit?

When it costs me a full penny, then I'll be upset.

Actually it's already costing you much more than a full penny. She is just the tip of the iceberg as far as white collar theft is concerned, it's beyond epidemic proportions and the theft itself is just the tip of the iceberg of other problems. This attitude of entitlement is a fast growing "cancer". You're in a good position to get a movement happening, Petros- from your place to Ottawa is just a short hike across flat ground. -:)

Too many trees in the way once you get 15 miles East of here.

If you want results, make ALL politicians sign a contract that says they do jail time for any and all f*ck ups.
