Well there seems to be quite a few serious political threads on here on topics including health care etc that get people quite wound up. I thought it would be nice to have a politics thread that is anything but serious. Engage in political discussion, spew lies about those you don't like, rant and rave at will. Just keep it lighthearted. For example here's a political ad from Winnipeg Manitoba to get you started! [ame=&feature=player_embedded]YouTube - Sam Katz NOT for Mayor 1 Enjoy!
Funny, but my thought was that in the States that would mean that the kid would have gotten a call from at least 50 different attorneys and Sam would have been sued for $50 million.
Brewster, I forgot to add that here in the States we would also have an organization that would have been started immediately called Beat Up Crazy Katz, or BUCK. They would picket Sam's house and demand that they get paid several million dollars or they will picket his house forever and stop him from going to work. Of course that will result in Sarah Palin starting a counter organization called Katz Needs Everyone's Energy, or KNEE. This will be augmented by a rogue preacher in Florida who will stage a mass burning of soccer balls in protest of something, but he's not really sure of what, but it will result in CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox having updates every 10 minutes about the preacher from Florida. Of course Oprah will have the kid on her show and to acknowledge her support she will give him a 50 room mansion and the keys to a new car, ignoring the fact that the kid can't drive for another three years. See how much simpler you folks have it in Canada!
LMAO... I think you nailed. And of course all that would have preempted the news coverage of less important stories..like two wars going on, a global financial collapse, etc...
Management lesson: FAST SEX ! Bobby wanted desperately to have sex with this really cute, really hot girl in his office... But she was dating someone else. One day Bobby got so frustrated that he went to her and said I'll give you $100 if you let me have sex with you... The girl looked at him, and then said, 'NO!' Bobby said, 'I'll be real fast. I'll throw the money on the floor, you bend down and I'll finish by the time you've picked it up.' She thought for a moment and said that she would consult with her boyfriend. So she called him and explained the situation. Her boyfriend says, 'Ask him for $200, and pick up the money really fast. He won't even be able to get his pants down.' She agreed and accepts the proposal. Over half an hour goes by and the boyfriend is still waiting for his girlfriend's call. Finally, after 45 minutes the boyfriend calls and asks, 'What happened...?' Still breathing hard, she managed to reply, ' The bastard had all quarters!' Management lesson: ALWAYS CONSIDER A BUSINESS PROPOSITION IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE AGREEING TO IT AND GETTING SCREWED.
