Organic plastic?

Here's an idea.

Maybe, just maybe, when you buy an "organic" apple it shouldn't have a plastic sticker on it that goes in the garbage.

Just one of those fabulous ideas from Newman!

Feeling congested?

I had a chat with Toronto's Congestion Czar last week. I capitalize that because, well, he's a Czar.

Turns out he had a cold and was all congested. How ironic, I said to him. He didn't see the irony.

"You know, just like the traffic. Congested."

Lots of phlegm noice.

Anyway, I don't mean to be so dismissive. He has some good ideas on the best way to get around Toronto given the ever-increasing number of cars, perpetual construction, a subway that doesn't open or can only stay running for 5 days before needing a fix, or is on fire, increasing Uber prices and more and more people getting stabbed or gunned down when they walk somewhere.

Some of his ideas for getting around efficiently are:

Stay home

Try another city, like Sal Paulo, population 5 billion

Map your trip out on Google Maps, then cancel the trip

If you're heading to Home Depot, cancel, as Olivia Chow suggested. This is one of the more clever-er ideas. By boycotting Home Depot, their business will go down, they'll lay people off, those unemployed people will stay home and boom, less traffic. I think that's called trickle-down unemployment. Kinda brilliant! Also skip the parade.

Don't wait for Ford, dig your own tunnel. Too bad you have to boycott Home Depot. There's a sale on Fisher-Price pails and shovels.

The number one suggestion is this: die, have your body put in a coffin, have a funeral, put the coffin in a hearse, join a long line of cars with a police escort. You'll sail along. I guess you could sneak in a trip to Home Depot as well.

Life of a booger

The other day I was thinking how horrible a booger's life must be. Have you ever thought that?

Having a dirty olfactory job 24/7. 

Then you're picked out so easily and fired off into the distance. 

No severance. Just shame.

They don't even get the respect that, say, a fart often gets. They get to enter farting contests. A fart can be a winner. No one has a booger contest.

Just cast aside like so much of the body's garbage.

Next time, give your boogers a little attention. Some respect.

You'll be glad you did.

Two. Two galaxies in one

Astronomers have finally determined that there's actually only a 2% chance that the Andromeda galaxy will collide with ours in a billion years.

Still, they advise that you learn to brace yourself. 

It could get hectic. Bolt down the furniture, invest in a few more airbags for your car and plan on some vases being toppled over. The good news is it wasn't your cat.

Bankin on it

When I went to my bank machine today, up popped a message - pick your favourite transaction?

Really? My all-time favourite?

Gee, let me think...

It's not withdrawing money to pay the mortgage!

It's not withdrawing money to buy a $50 chicken, $5 banana and $3 paper bag that rips.

So I guess it's...depositing money. Ya, that's it. Especially other people's money.

Got any?

Thanks for asking.

I'll be back when I have money to deposit.

An army of one

This is Murph.

Murph loves food. Here he is waiting for his Amazon delivery of food. If the delivery guy forgets to bring the food, Murph will just eat the delivery guy. Ex-delivery guy.

If the delivery guy doesn't show up, he might eat a wild rabbit, a fox or occasionally a small child. Only the annoying ones.

Murph salivates buckets when you feed him.

So much so he's joined the salivation army.

It's nice to see he volunteers.

What kind of person are you?

I would say, on the whole, I'm not really a morning person.

Okay, definitely not a morning person. And as the day rolls on, I realize, well, if I want to include all the hours of the day then I'm probably not a day person either. 

Of course, eventually day turns to night. I could say I'm not really a dusk person, just at the time the sun sets. But if I'm honest I should really include the entire night.

So I'm not a night person either.

What's left?

Napping and sleeping.

I'm a napping and sleeping person.

Revenge Porn

Donald Trump wants to outlaw revenge porn? I imagined him being a big fan.

I wonder if the Supremes will allow it. Seems to me, on careful reading, the Fathers of the Constitution wanted to maintain a person's (man's) right to exact revenge on a woman that rejects him.

This is based on an originalist reading of the Constitution. Not some namby-pamby updated enlightened woke feel-good and completely understandable interpretation.

Mission: Possible (depending on what it is)

It's good to see Tom Cruise perform death-defying stunts in Mission: Impossible at the incredible age of 63.

I'll be 63 soon and this gives me hope.

Yesterday I removed some lint from my belly button all by myself.

Don't want to make Tom look bad but, you know, I did it by myself. No stunt double.

I followed this with a long soak in Voltaren and 2 hours of mattress time.

Tom and I have still got it!

Smoke screen

The smoke is white.

A new Pope has been erected. The alter boys await the private celebration.

It was a tough choice. Between a 100-year-old white man, a 100-year-old white man and a 100-year-old white man.

Shhh, I'm conclaving

The conclaving cardinals almost agreed on a new Pope until they learned Sean "Diddy" Combs is in prison.

The Diddy Pope had a nice ring to the cardinals.

The search continues and the smoke keeps rising.

Which, of course, contributes to climate change. 

But it's not their job to save the world. That's their boss's job.

BTW I'm starting a band called Conclaving Cardinals. Our hit is "Smoke out the chimney", sung to "Smoke on the Water".

Yes, dog walker

You ever watched one of those cooking shows? Where everyone says "yes, chef, yes, chef", like they're some kind of God.

Hey numbnuts, chop that pepper.

"YES, CHEF".

I demand the same from the dog walkers that work for me.

Hey, pick up that poop now!

"YES, DOGWALKER".

Makes me feel special.

My doctor has the sense of humour of a colon polyp.

It would save money and time, too.

Think about it. Your surgeon operates while he already has you in stitches.

Czar Search

Finally

Finally!

The search ends.

Toronto has found a congestion czar. 

No, not for your sinuses.

The traffic!

What's been holding you back from driving to get food?

The absence of a congestion czar.

With his magic wand and fairy dust, he will fit more and more cars into the same old roads. Actually, even less road, if you subtract the potholes.

Unfortunately he's stuck on the Gardiner and will not start for another 6 months.

Today I saw a turquoise-coloured car with matching coloured hubs.

No!

It's the vehicular equivalent of wearing a white t-shirt with the pocket matching your blue pants.

Food warning

Who's the Einstein that came up with the name rapeseed?

It needs to be changed!

Rape should never appear anywhere close to seed, rape should never be a name of anything and no food should be called rapewhatever.

It's too bad. It's one of the healthiest oils you can eat.

But you're on a first date and you ask for rapeseed on your salad?

No!
