Myk Murphy:

(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:15:44 am)

(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:16:46 am)
Froupie:

(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:18:40 am)
Myk Murphy:

(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:19:00 am)

No, he was just telling me about it. He writes songs and plays guitar too in his own side project.

It's the same story every year, as much a rite of spring as the chirping birds -- the cyclone sound of taxpayers' money being sucked out the door.
This annual phenomenon is rooted in the belief that no bureaucrat worth his lunch break leaves a dime unspent, that a penny saved in this year's budget is a penny lost from next year's allocation.
Heaven forbid anyone in government would actually try to spend less taxpayers' money.
Needless to say, the panic cheque-writing of March madness is a recipe for squander. Rarely is there a report from the auditor general on government mismanagement that does not mention the problem and its obvious fiscal consequences.
Perhaps the most famous of all such deals was Jean Chretien's purchase of two Challenger jets for a cool $100 million on the final day of March 2002, "because there was some money."

that sucks, froupie. at least it's just the car that busted. i bet there will be plenty of accidents today in dc. another day of pouring rain, and the folks here make foolish choices.

Chris just told me that he thinks this album is going to do so well we could call it "shit sandwich" and would still do great.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:41:10 am)
Froupie:
didnt spinal tap have an album called shit sandwich?
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:41:57 am)
Froupie:
no hang on, it was shark sandwich. the review was shit sandwich.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:42:14 am)
Myk Murphy:
they do the same sort of spending here, too. it happens in july until september, since the government's FY ends on september 30th.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:42:22 am)
Myk Murphy:
froupie is precisely correct. the new kcq record could be named after an unflattering review for spinal tap. that would be kinda funny. i'd buy it.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:43:27 am)
Froupie:
the sustain, listen to it. heh

Myk Murphy:
of course, the best band name in the world is still unused, to my knowledge. just like the scottish band "franz ferdinand" is named after an ill-fated archduke, i would name a band after the well-known european politician and current UNHCR head: "ruud lubbers" (actually pronounced "rude lubers").
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:50:01 am)
Detlef Sping:
I like it.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:56:54 am)
Froupie:

(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:57:04 am)
Froupie:
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:57:28 am)
Detlef Sping:
Rude Lubers.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:59:29 am)
Detlef Sping:
It has no ears.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 10:59:47 am)
Froupie:
it does, theyre camouflaged
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 11:00:17 am)
Detlef Sping:
you could pin a hat on I guess.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 11:00:51 am)
Detlef Sping:
a bandana is better yes.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 11:01:36 am)
Froupie:
the owner wants a bandana that wont get caught up in the dogs hair. i have to make it specially.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 11:02:04 am)
Detlef Sping:
what's wrong with that dog? he's being spoon fed kaisershmarnn.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 11:02:27 am)
Detlef Sping:
Make it out of camoflage velcro.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 11:03:03 am)
Detlef Sping:
the dog will love it.
(Tue Apr 13, 2004 - 11:03:30 am)
Detlef Sping:
That way you could stick it anywhere on the dog.
