The Three Stooges Thread

Veto: The vested power or constitutional right of one branch or department of government to refuse approval of measures proposed by another department, especially the power of a chief executive to reject a bill passed by the legislature and thus prevent or delay its enactment into law. I'd say the Bloc will have what closely resembles Veto power wouldn't you? Let's not split hairs here. As of last night about 1 in 30 people from Alberta would agree with that statement. We'll see. I wouldn't give it more than a few weeks before Jack is back sleeping with Harper. -

I guess putting in a separatist pig and giving him veto power is better that Harper. I really hope there isn't any military legislation Duceppe decides to veto while he has the magic wand. -

I think we should have monthly draws for remote destination fishing trips. I'm sure with millions of dollars this site brings in each month, due to the hundreds of hours Dave and Darren have to devote to it, that a few trips a month would be nothing for them to pop for. While you're at it guys maybe you can re-write the entire site code backwards so the dyslexic fly fisherman out there will have a place to call home. I expect to see these changes by noon today, no later.

Why I Will Never Tent Again....

There have been all kinds of these images floating around the net for years. Yes these are large animals, but most people are blown away by them simply because they have never seen animals of these sizes before and didn’t realize they existed. The photos are typically composed to falsely increase they size of the animals in relation to the people in the photos. Here’s some more examples: Worlds Largest Grizzly World’s Largest Pig World’s Largest Moose World’s Largest Dog World’s Largest Cat World’s Largest Cougar And last, but not least I present you with: The World’s Biggest Pussy -

Anyone Know What This Means?

This just in: World's Largest Bong With the oil industry sluggish and visits from tourists to this city of 1,000,000 at an all time low, Calgary Mayor Dave Bronconnier has announced the largest public works project in the city's history. As a monument to the incredibly high tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) level of Alberta marijuana and in an effort to bolster tourism, the city plans to build a 150-foot high bong on the Calgary waterfront. When completed, the Calgary bong will be a full 90 feet higher than the 60-foot HjoodoenBong in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, currently the world's largest. "Let's face it. Is there really any reason for someone to come to this town? Have you ever actually taken a look at this place?" the mayor asked rhetorically. "If I wasn't mayor, I sure as hell wouldn't be sticking around," said the mayor before being nudged firmly on the shoulder by one of his aides. "Not only will this bong revitalize Calgary, it will provide a much-needed shot in the arm for our tourist industry, while also showcasing some of the mind-numbingly good marijuana cultivated in Alberta." The bong, a giant sealed chamber half-full of water appreciated by marijuana smokers for its clean and efficient delivery of marijuana smoke directly to the lungs, will be maintained, cleaned and sterilized by city workers. Mayor Bronconnier pointed out the mega bong project will create 20 permanent jobs, a positive development considering Calgary's predicted 40 per cent unemployment rate come 2010. "Over the past week, before we even made the official announcement, we have received over 400 applications for bong maintenance, bong construction, and especially, quality assurance testers," the mayor indicated, adding that tenders for marijuana growers wishing to supply the bong with high quality Alberta weed will be issued shortly. A Calgary resident practices for his superbong marijuana 'quality assurance tester' job interview. Dubbed the "superbong" by the city's media, the structure will be visible from Canmore on a clear day, according to city officials. The project is slated for completion by next fall, just in time for the annual cannabis harvest. Plans are also under way for an annual complementary "bong fest" on the Bow river to be held every late August, which could pump millions of dollars into the Calgary economy. Bud Green, President of the Calgary Chamber of Commerce and a big backer of the project, addressed inquiries from the local alternative media on public usage and fees: "A cost benefit analysis on the mega bong is being completed, but we are projecting a Toking Fee of four to five dollars. While this might sound like a lot of money for one toke, remember that this is one seriously big ****ing bong. Even the most experienced of stoners can plan on getting majorly baked from just one haul on this puppy." Green trailed off adding, "if you think doing buckets is more than your lungs can handle, like, wow, man…….." Representatives of the powerful Calgary pothead lobby are said to be enthusiastic about the superbong project. Mark "Skippy" St.Onge, who has been hired as a technical consultant on the initiative, called it the greatest thing ever to happen to Calgary, while also pointing out that many of his acquaintances who haven't held a job in years have suddenly regained their willingness to work. "It's high time Alberta be recognized as the one of the best, if not the best marijuana producing regions on God's green earth, and I think the superbong will demonstrate to the world the indisputable quality of Alberta bud." Added St. Onge, "I think this might also give the kids of Calgary a reason to stick around town for a while longer." -

I poked around SRD's site today, this is all I found. I also checked all of the earlier annual reports listed on the SRD site and could not find any reference as to why the Tiger Trout was being considered for removal from the list of approved species. The Alberta Fisheries Act makes no mention of Tiger Trout at all. From page 22 of http://www.srd.gov.ab.ca/archives/pdf/2006...nual_Report.pdf The following legislative changes were made in 2006‑07: • Amendments to the Forest Recreation Regulation to create a new Forest Land Use Zone and trails network for the Ghost‑Waiparous area. The trails will be managed in a way that creates new and enhanced trail opportunities, while addressing environmental considerations, public safety and user needs. • Amendments to the Fisheries (Ministerial) Regulation to: • Support a special fish harvest licence for walleye. • Support mandatory licensing of competitive fishing events (derbies and tournaments). • Remove reference to prohibited areas, as well as remove tiger trout from the list of approved species. This article gives some more info . http://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/science/aquacultu.../Code2003_e.pdf See page 13 1.6.1.12 The use of hybrid organisms has previously occurred. Hybrids are obtained by crossing different species and, rarely, different genera. For example, brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) and lake trout were crossed to create "splake" (S. fontinalis x namaycush) in Ontario. The hybrid had desirable characteristics of both the brook and lake trout. Another common hybrid tested by fisheries management agencies for the recreational fishery is the tiger trout, an inter-generic cross between brown trout and brook trout. The concern with hybrids is that if they backcross with either of the original species, there could be a transfer of foreign genetic material into the indigenous population. This has raised concerns about the changes to genetic diversity in the indigenous populations and the potential to reduce the ability of individuals to survive in the wild. Make what you want of the info. I suspect that SRD is probably playing it safe and finally realizing that effing around with nature doesn't always produce the most desired results.

Max, sorry about the delay but there have been some minor details to clear up prior to sailing. I have had had several requests from members to be invited on board for the next sailing and have had to do a little “checking into” them prior to letting any of their asses on board. Well it turns out most all of them aren’t exactly suitable material. You see Max, for the men, there is a set of standards and rules that must be met in order to sail with Captain Weedy, the following being a few. 1. You shall be able to chew food with mouth closed. 2. You shall be able to have an uncontrollable lust for someone else every five minutes. 3. You shall be able to conceal the presence of a fart for long enough to remove yourself from the area and have it look as though it was the person standing next to you that laid the bomb. 4. You shall be clued in enough to realize that the nose hair that’s been hanging out for the last month and a half should probably either be tucked away neatly or cut off. 5. You shall be able to differentiate between toys and bedroom toys. 6. You shall be able to clean a bathroom or flush the toilet. 7. You shall be able to pick your nose, show it to your friends and say loudly, ‘’Mmm, never seen that shape before.’’ 8. You shall be able lick your lips constantly, acting as if doing so is pleasurable. 9. You shall be able to lift your feet up so the vacuum can go underneath them. 10. You shall be able to understand that you ARE the lord of the dance. Never forget that. 11. You shall be able to be told the light bulb blew and not be found the next day with your dick stuck in the bulb socket. 12. You shall be able to strut. 13. You shall realize that you are better than everybody else and able to let them know so. 14. You shall be able to act like Mr. Flanders from The Simpsons. 15. You shall be able to act like a member of the opposite sex. 16. You shall be able to pretend to be from different ethnic backgrounds every hour, and when people ask you about it, answer like a hillbilly would. So as you can see Max the rules are tough and not everyone that asks to come aboard is going to make it. Above and beyond the base set of rules there is also the Level 69 Security Check that everyone must pass. You wouldn’t believe what came up in that check. One guy, from Newfoundland if my memory serves me right, was been refused an invite on board because the Level 69 Security Check revealed he had been busted for stalking Pee Wee Herman. Another fellow, get this, was refused an invite because we determined he has been paying twice the amount of spousal support he was supposed to for the last ten years. Anyways, you will be contacted with your pick up location today. Go fishing, do your usual thing today but don’t, under any circumstances, reveal the pick up location to anyone. The chopper will be in use today (I’m doing a little bit of long line whale fishing – show you when you get on board) so you will be picked up by Sidewinder Sally in one of the Harriers. Don’t worry about the landing location as Sidewinder Sally is pilot capable of landing on a pin prick. Click here if the movie does not play. This is what she does for fun on the weekends: (Disregard the commentators use of “he” as Sidewinder Sally is a “for hire” military pilot that I cannot be allowed to be identified in public.) Be careful out there and remember Sidewinder Sally likes to land right on top. Wear your good waders. Captain Weedy out...
