"I'll take one piece of paper, I'll take my pen, I will write zero helicopters, Chretien. That will be it, and I will not lose one minute of sleep"



So today I am doing research for a poli sci paper and to my shock and amazement one of the references is authored by the one and only Plummer! I laughed out loud in the Library much to the dismay of the librarian who shot me a dirty look.
Plummer, to those who know him, is a proud Delta Upsilon brother (C-span will get excited if he reads that) and he is infamous for his debauchery and crazy adventures. How hilarious is it that I might cite him in a paper I am writing? I wonder if he is a Doctor yet...
That picture of him also features another Doctor (a *real* meddler) in the background, Dr. Kenny Crammit, who is now in T.O. To think we used to refer to the doctor as "Scarf Bitch"...
Well at least I can say I knew them way back in the day....

This morning while I fought my way to school through the heavy drifts of snow I was wishing I had just stayed in bed. I was hating life and covered in snow, and just when I was cursing mother nature and wishing more people had come out to mow their snow "I still haven't found what I'm looking for" came on the radio. It instantly put me in a better mood and eased my nerves. Don't just love songs that can do that?

Song Du Jour: I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For ~U2
"I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone..."

1) When I came home this afternoon, my roommate JP had already mowed the snow. But he was considerate enough to leave me some snow by the back door.

2) What was scarf bitch doing at the bar? Shouldn't he have been home studying for the MCAT or washing the Dean of Med's test tubes?

1) You are like the snow mowing Nazi, Dude.

2)Crammit was already well on his way to doctorhood when this photo was taken (the night before the Duke's wedding here in Onion town...)
He was always out with us at The Strath too. When it comes to book smarts Scarfbitch was the smartest Dude I had the pleasure of meeting (before I met Mustafa Hirji).
I miss Crammit and his special lady, Sunita. She made wicked Curry...I always looked forward to partying with the Crammits.

Scotty C. phone me the other day and said he met Kenny Crammit on the subway in Scarberia. very strange that the two would recognize each other considering they never met sober.

I wonder if "Kick start my heart" was playing when Prof Plumber made his rock pose?

Indian,
I am working Friday night in the Sin Bin for the CIS University Cup Finals at Clare Drake. I work until 10 p.m. so give me a shout after the RR's game and I'll try to make it out for a few drinks with you....

I fucking hate Pencil tappers. They drive me crazy. Good thing I never had any classes with Crammit I would have gone insane, didn't Mrs. Indian want to get up and slap him silly?

I used to be a "jimmy leg" during exams. Now it only bothers people sitting next to me at the casino.

D'Indian, wishing I could go with you to the RRs game. We'd get it on old skool stylee. Last time I got lit was with OTC in Beijing. Still, there's no better palce to get faced than Whyte Ave. Might be this summer on my way to post.

Btw, read in the paper that The Mullet's charity tour is turning into a farce. Must be rough if even the Dead Rear fans are turning their backs.

How awesome is it that I can keep up with Mrs. Weeds and her cadre through Blogger? Aaron, does this count as another publication?

"Viva l'Hazmat!!!"

Hey Indian when Edmonton's favorite team wins the cup send me a team photo, okay?

Tonight I worked at the game between Manitoba and Trois Rivere (sorry no accents here...bad French...) and I saw Batman, Bulldog, and that guy with the shaved head...uhhh..I never can remember his name...but he's a big Sask fan (in fact the last time I saw him he was painted all green and white and rubbing the S'mos loss in my face, so no wonder I don't remember his name)
The boys have tickets to all the games this weekend, so they can watch me open the doors on the sin bin and hopefully we can get pished after the game tomorrow night and hook up with drunken Indian on Whyte.

If you want to know...Manitoba won.
It was hilarious being in the Sin Bin with the Frenchies...
Lots of, "Tabernac! Sacre Bleue! etc..."
Oh my 'virgin' ears!
They also wear full cages on their white Jofa helmets. And they don't hit. Brutal.
