Random Thoughts About Stuff



- I watched the longest movie ever yesterday. It's called Australia. Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman are the big stars. They're both from Australia and only one of them gets to use their native accent due to Nicole Kidman playing an english chick. The plot in this flick changed about 8 times ... off the start it was a movie about cows, than it was a movie about betrayal, than it was about war .... than turned into a love story ... and if you plan on watching it, set aside a good 2 and a half hours!


- What the hell is with that stop sign in front of the aquatic centre!? It's absolutley useless .... especially because coming the other way there is none!


- Did you know an iced capp has 250 calories, 33 grams of sugar, and more caffeine than a coffee!!

- Comedy nights are fun!! The Great Plains College put on a Telemiracle comedy night where they raised just over 2 grand on Friday night at a packed Beatty Playhouse!! The two comedians that took to the stage did not disappoint ... especially the second one who had to deal with all the drunks in the crowd! Between an old lady who the comedian ended up calling mom ... and the girls who didn't think there were 12 million sharks in the ocean ... it made for a pretty teery eyed Duperreault.



- Whoever says the Casino isn't doing well is a liar! I drove by there Sunday morning and the parking lot was packed! Plus I know there were probably 10 guys that spent their life savings in there over the weekend ... safe to say the community so against having a casino seems to be embracing it quite well. Which really came through loud and clear the other day when my 90 year old next door neighbour told me I should go more often.

- Telemiracle raised 3.8 mill!! That is the second highest total behind 2007's whopping 5.6 mill ... either way ... Nice work Sasky!
