As I was watching t.v. the other day I was taken by a song in a commercial. So I typed a few simple words (miss dior cherie commercial) into google and the results changed my life. The song was written by the sexiest woman to ever roam our planet. Her name is Brigitte Bardot, a French goddess that reigned supreme hotness before your mom even had her first period. If you want to know more, wikipedia her. But to honour this mega babe, download her best-of album and give it a listen. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised, I was.

Canadian Indy Band Finally Gets Big Break
The much lauded critical darlings, Nickleback, finally catch a break from the mainstream media. A band that has slipped under the radar for years recently won Band of the Decade accolades from the Associated Press. Speaking about the award frontman Chad Krueger was unapologetic for his bands alternative style and artistic nature. "It has been a long road. I just don't think the general public every really understood what we were about and what our music represented. It is pretty subversive and introspective stuff. All I can say right now is look out for our next record. It will punch you in the face! We have tried to incorporate more experimental electronic sounds, Krautrock, post-punk and jazz influences this time around. So, all I can say is you have been warned."

CD Sales Breath New Life with the Sales of Amazing Hip Hop Album
Lite Up My Day
Dear Blog,
Yesterday while at work I made a cup of soup out of a can of V8 by simply warming it up in my plain white coffee mug. However, today I found my mug crustated with tomato juice, so I decided to get a new mug. I ditched the old one in the sink for someone else to clean and opened the cupboard to get a new mug. Wow! There it was. The Lite 96 CHFM collectors mug. That is right. I have in my possession one of the most sought after collectibles on the globe. Now I have to decide whether or not to auction it off on Ebay (probably starting at $9000) or proudly display it on my desk?
Signing out blog,

Are You Reasonable?
2. REASONABLENESS
(1) Reasonable Person
HNE-12 Intelligence.
HNE-12 Intelligence. Everyone is required by negligence law to possess a certain modicum of intelligence. Stupid individuals must answer for their foolish ways to their victims, even though they may be forgiven by their Maker.1 The awkward and the accident-prone must make good any losses they produce.2 The reasonable person is presumed to possess neither over-apprehension nor over-confidence.3
Need to expand knowledge. A reasonable person need not be aware of esoteric matters,13 but as human knowledge expands, the esoteric may become the commonplace. At least one should know when one is ignorant of something and that information or expert advice should be sought. To drive with one's vision obscured14 or to proceed in the face of an enigma such as a purple traffic light,15 may well be negligence. There is nothing wrong with doing one's own simple household repairs,16 but when the task is a complex one, it may be negligent to proceed without expert advice. Thus, those who build bridges without adequate professional counsel about drainage subject themselves to liability even though they may have escaped if they had consulted competent engineers.17 There are conflicting decisions on the need to consult experts over trees. For example, there is apparently no need for ordinary landowners to confer with specialists to determine if their trees need looping, because they may rely upon their own judgement.18 On the other hand, if the trees are near a busy highway, if a defect is visible, and if the defendant is a large landowner, there may be a "duty to provide himself with skilled advice about the safety of trees".19 Here again, it appears that more effort must be expended to avert greater risk. Normally, however, an actor will be relieved of responsibility if following professional advice or if hiring an expert to perform these tasks,20because it is eminently reasonable to rely upon others,21 especially when they are skilled persons.

Lack of Hardcore Techno Music Ruins National Celebrations of the Falling Berlin Wall
The German Ministry of Culture takes major flack for opting out of having major trance DJ’s to host the Berlin Wall Commemoration ceremonies, instead deciding to go with mild, glitchy, futuristic tunes. Unfortunately, the crowd was only mildly amused by the massive falling dominoes.

FOX Goes Offline, Switches to Egyptian Papyrus
In a bid to become the least relevant news source in the world, FOX news has decided to become invisible to Google searches. CEO & ageing relic Rupert Murdoch stated "Google delivers more than a billion consumer visits to newspaper websites each month. But why would people want unlimited news from differing perspectives all in one place? I am confident that consumers would rather go directly to our sites, create a profile, log in, and pay a fee. This is the way forward for FOX, not some passe marketing model last used by the New Yorker in 1977."

Climate Change is a Pedophile
Climate change, as we all know from reading PETA brochures in the lunch room, is dramatically changing the way species live or die in the arctic. Polar bears, man's oldest enemy, are now getting stuck on ice floes because they are too busy being lazy and sunning themselves in this wonderful new heat. They eventually die of simple laziness and contentment. But climate change has moved from poaching to new more heinous crimes - pedophilia. You heard it here first, eat your heart out PETA.
