fringing it up

Well, spent a good chunk of our evening with some totally radical awesome dudes at the Powerplant. Where the patio is in the shade from 5pm to 5am! (new slogan?)

Anyway... it's the week of International Fringing here in (it's finally stopped raining) Edmonton, Alberta.

We're quite looking forward to checking out a bunch of the new plays this year. Bought our Fringe programs a couple of weekends ago and have been slowly perusing through, seeing which plays look cool enough for an awesome posse such as ours to go to. ;-)

If it makes you uncultured daveberta readers who aren't theatre lovers any better, we'll also be spending a decent amount of time in the beer gardens over the next couple of days. Sweet.

Totally check out the Fringe in Old Strathcona if you get the chance. It's one of our favorite Edmonton festivals. It's awesome.

BTW. Did anyone else read the Edmonton Sun Editorial today?

Question: What the hell kind of rag starts an editorial piece with "Un-FREAKING-belieable!?!?!?!

Answer: Not a very good one.

  1. Hello Daveberta! I just noticed two things:

    1. The Canadian blogsphere is a total sausage party.

    2. Daveberta is hogging the chicks! Can you help a brother out and spare some poontang? What's the deal with this Halitosis bird? Is she hot? I see from her cameo gravatar that she is a Good Catholic Girl - Word Up!

    I tried watching the StrongBad thingie but, as always happens, I was like "...this isn't funny. Jack Benny was funny, but this isn't funny" and gave up. I'm a slightly older, shittier man, you see, and my generation just don't (doesn't? Please help with this lamer-verb agreement!-Anon.) "get" the following: hentai, anime, bukkake, Tom Green, "emo" kids, goths, etc., etc.

    Seeing as how you steal my taxes and freedom by being Liberal, I DEMAND that you teach me how to "hook" "up" with Liberal babes. I've got Ianism helping me with my meta-mojo but I need you to teach me how to speak Liberal: "Up with taxes"? "Down with freedom"? Exactly how does one engage The Liberal Bird? Please advise!

    Your pal,

  2. Dear Anonie,

    1. If you're blogging to pick up chicks, you're not going to get very far.

    2. We're afraid our good friend Holtopia isn't your type, Mr. Duckling. She's what's known as a raving Holtopian Cucumber-roots socialist. She's way too cool for you, Mr. Anonie.

    "Seeing as how you steal my taxes and freedom by being Liberal, I DEMAND that you teach me how to "hook" "up" with Liberal babes."

    Oh Anonie. Unfortunatly for us, after repeated phone messages, we never recieved our ad money cheque from Mr. Guite.

    Plus, do you think we would be enslaved to the Canada Student Loan program if we were in on the ad deals? We think not.

    Sorry Mr. Anonie. From your picture, we can tell you're waaay to pasty for any good Liberal chickie. Sorry dude.
