London Teabaggers Redefine Concept Of "Complete And Utter Failure"

From Five Foot's website:

We topped out at about 100 people for the London "Stop over Spending" rally outside City Hall.

Frankly, I can't believe we had that many, under the circumstances: at points, the rain was blasting down in sheets, and the wind knocked a lot of our stuff around.

Frankly, I can't believe they had that many either. Applying the Shaidle deflation factor, and working through the math, I get 20 far right blogging nerdlingers, the voices in their heads, their mamma, several addled seniors, and a homeless guy that stumbled into the parking lot where the city stuck their pathetic display and was brutally clubbed to death in lieu of an actual Islamist.

This picture, from here, gives some idea of the "crowd" size.
Note also in these pictures the total absence of rain "blasting down". Note in this picture the actual presence of sunshine. And here's the weather for that day; the rain avoided their little rebellion nicely.

Finally, it appears "the black guy" didn't show. Probably got within 100 yards of this gang and heard banjos playing the theme from Deliverance.

Ontario Land Owners Protest Flops

Fewer than a dozen tractors and other machines clogged traffic for a few hours in front of the Parliament Buildings before they left about mid-morning.

Spending time berating the OLA is, I suppose, like pulling the wings off flies, but one of their people has made vague threats against me in the past, so let me just briefly note their ghastly and abject failure.

Getting Rich By Being Poor

NEW YORK - For the third straight year, the Toronto Maple Leafs are the NHL's most valuable team, worth $448 million.

..and all for fielding a squad that couldn't pull down a bronze medal at a Ringette tourney.

This why Toronto is a Mecca of Post-Modern Capitalism, and why other Canadians hate and fear us. In most towns you have to succeed to succeed. Here we rule by sucking.

The Shorter Jago: My Prank Site Sucked

...and I'm throwing in the towel.

Actually, Robert is trying to sell his steaming pile for "a $10,000 donation towards Ms. Wright’s legal fees."

Tell you what, Bob, I'll offer you a stale pretzel and a bowl of soup. How about that?
