Film Fests, Con Conrad, Bogus Barry

Hey - we found out that the feature film version of All Hat has been picked to premier at the Toronto International Film Festival. I'm told that this hograssle is the biggest film fest in the world so that's good news. More to come on dates, ticket info, etc. Or check out the festival site, as I'm thinking there's a pretty good chance they know more about this than me.

Conrad Black is now Lord Con, after having his ass convicted in Chicago last week. He's now attempting to come back to Canada, whose citizenship he spurned when he became Lord Black of Cross Booger, or whatever it was. Good luck with that, My Lord. I'm thinking of asking for his Order of Canada once they get around to stripping him of it. I figure I'll just have to clean off his greasy fingerprints, and remove the ermine trim, and it will be fine.

Speaking of liars, Barry Bonds cranked two dingers last night, bringing him to within two of Hank Aaron's record. And to think - his marvellous late-career stats are all from the result of his ingesting flaxseed oil...oh, and massive amounts of steroids. For the record - as much as I admire Mister Aaron, for both his ability and his character, Babe Ruth is the greatest home run hitter of all time. (check his home run to at-bat ratio). And the ol' Bambino did it on hot dogs, beer and hookers.

Ingest that, Barry.
