Sunday Funnies

Well, the H1N1 hysteria continued unabated in Canada last week, fed by stories that Canadian professional sports teams had jumped the queue and gotten their vaccinations ahead of so-called "at-risk" Canadians, not to mention the general public.

Oh, yeah, and in case anyone missed it, Prince Charles and his wife Camilla undertook a Royal Tour across the country.

I'm still waiting for people to start calling H1N1 Hiney. Those number ones could easily pass for capital i's.

I like the sound of it too. The Hiney Flu. And it's "spot-on" in the description.

Ha!

Quirks: Yeah, some have said she looks like the south end hiney of a north-bound horse. Oh, you're talking about the H1N1 cartoons?

Yeah. Some of the same stories are circulating in the states. One of the latest is that federal inmates in some corrections facilities will be getting their doses before sick citizens in the same towns can have a dose.

I loved the Prince Charles and Camilla cartoon. Question, what do they call Camilla? Is she the Princess of Wales II? That has always confused me.

Don: Hey, we're discussing the pros and cons of H1N1 vaccinations - pro-athletes and con-victs!

Me-Me: Some call her a horse, but officially she's the Duchess of Cornwall.

you know, you wouldn;t even know Charles adn Camilla have been in Canada (other than through blogs) as no one is covering it on the major news here. That's ok though. I think they are rather ghastly royals anyway! Hardly Royal to me but then since the Queen, few have been.

...mmm...: Don't get me started on the uselessness of the Royals

The Polka Dot Door

A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born.  That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network.  And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.  But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door.  And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran.  The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993.  I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share.  The formula was pretty simple.  A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains.  The show opened as follows... Imagination Day!  Oh boy!  You know what happens on Imagination D
