Josée Verner is officially stupid.

The former Conservative culture minister didn’t even vote for the Conservatives…

She voted in the riding where she lives which is the riding of André Arthur which the Conservatives decided to not go against in this election.

Nothing else to say.

Hispong started the challenge, but I originally saw it on JasMc’s blog.

Rules :
You must place on your blog a popular tune from your teenage years that is now mostly forgotten. This tune must be cheesy.

My choice was difficult because the cheesy tunes I know are all still fairly popular. But, I still found on YouTube an excellent candidate.

Ralph et les Baronics - C’est l’été! (1988)



And since my blog is bilingual, I get to choose again!

Debbie Gibson, is my secondary 3, my trip to Toronto, we were bad little rascals! Back then, I was listening to Debbie Gibson’s Electric Youth and to One by Metallica. Yup.





If you feel up for this challenge, bear in mind that the following tunes have already been taken. Try to be original
Already taken:
- Whigfield Saturday Night
- Rappeur Chic with Manuel Tadros
- Shampoo Trouble
- Rico Suave
- Ralph et les Baronics - C’est l’été
- Electric Youth - Debbie Gibson
- Straight Up - Paula Abdul

Funny, albeit a little condescending agains english Canadians.

Artists defend themselves with vigor and big productions.

The cuts are small compared to the whole of the culture budget, but it seems to have hit the nail right where it hurts.

What bugs me a bit is that this spreads a negative xenophobic idea about English Canada. This summer, artists were accusing the people in Quebec City of being xenophobic, in contrast with the openness of the urban areas like Montréal.

The artists in this video represent the general sovereignist Montreal culture, please, let me express my uneasiness with this stereotypes anglophobic caricature.

After he attacks the man who slept with his wife, a tae kwon do instructor goes on a downward spiral that ultimately causes him to escape his feelings by going on a pilgrimage with his buddy and two of his students to see his hero, Chuck “The Truck” Wallace.

I never mentionned it before, but I have taken Judo and Karate classes as a young boy. Yup. Green belt in both disciplines!

Watch out!

And watch this little low-budget movie from 2006 I must see.

The Foot Fist Way

P.S.: As a Shotokan style karateka, we always felt that Tae Kwon Do was for sissys, for people who wanted to jump everywhere and break wood to try to impress… Yeah.
