Do Youtube?
TenTooMany is on youtube!
Big thanks to Joel for putting together the crazy TenTooMany DVD. When I heard about this project I had no idea what to expect. I think it looks great!
Joel's TTM DVD clip
This clip is a little slice of the big DVD that has our entire CD releae. What a nice thing to do! Princess toadstool looks pretty funny with that crazy umbrella and hooker makup. I can see why Nick had a crush on her all those years ago. Look at those sweet pool balls stuck to her ears and those sexy gloves/shoes!
The media scares me!
As America gets excited about Britney Spears and her new haircut, the Bush administration's 2008 budget is revealed to little fanfare. Perhaps people deserve to get their tax dollars wasted. Not that I want to get branded as some sort of leftist alarmist but... It seems to me that this budget is all about tax breaks for big corporations and cuts to social programs. *nice* I wonder if people weren't addicted to celebrity bull shit, would they care more about where their money is going? Is Canada any different?

At least the democrats in the senate have temporarily defeated Bush's budget increases (and personnel increases) for the military. The real problem, however, is that while small battles can be won in the senate, the presedential-congressional system of government in the United States still provides the president, by law, with an uncomfortable amount of power for which there are no counter-measures.
This is, in the least, one important area that Canada's parliementary-cabinet government differs: our Prime Minister, and his/her party, are held accountable for most everything. If the government is defeated in Parliament, they are required to step down. This is not the case in the United States. The fathers of Canadian confederation saw this coming a mile away, and we in Canada are the better for it..
"We have thus avoided that great source of weakness that has been the disruption of the United States. We hereby strengthen the central Parliament, and make the Confederation one people and one government, instead of five peoples and five governements, with merely a point of authority connecting us to a limited and insufficient extent."
- Sir John A. Macdonald
It's a shame that most people, when discussing Sir John A. Macdonald, frequently enjoy belabouring his drinking habits.
Maybe Canadians aren't that much different after all..
