It's WINDY!!!
What about me? I'm the Evil Colonel! You can tell I'm the EVIL colonel because I have a beard. Oh, wait...

I learned something new tonight... Kraft Dinner can go bad. I mean, in the BOX. I made a box that had been in the cupboard for... well, a while. Comes time to dump in the cheese powder, and it turns out moisture must have gotten into the packet, because the powder's in big lumps. "No big deal," I think. Well, it makes sense that moisture+powdered cheese+time = rancid, because when I broke up the clumps, did they ever REEK. The finished product stunk, and tasted pretty funky as well.
The ads for Philadelphia cream cheese kind of went off the rails for me when they introduced the "manservant" character. This is supposed to be Heaven... so why is one of the angels working as a servant? Or is it really Hell for him?
The lawyers at Kraft Foods have put up a typically large legal notice on their website. Interesting thing is, they seem to have taken a lot of trouble to write this in plain English, not the standard legalese. Why do you care? You don't! Why am I reading a legal notice on Kraft's website? Something to do with Cheez Whiz, and I'll say nothing more.
My thanks to the one visitor who checked in throughout. Feel free to drop a comment.
Keep your voice under control this time, bud... Sure puts a unique stamp on it. I don't doubt he's talented, but his style needs work. This is much better than last week, though.
Uh, wasn't expecting this one... where do they go when they drink Nestea? Wherever it is, I wish this guy would go there and stay there.
KFC Canada actually has a new bucket, matching their commercials... and an overall theme that really seems ripped off of McDonald's "active people" motif. Of course, Mickey D's then has to go and make a left turn by changing their bags back to white after all these years of eco-brown.
Well, he's going a little more conventional... I was expecting some Buddy Holly classic. Pretty good, though. He might just be the dark horse in this little contestarino. He never leaves anything on the table.
I'm expecting this to be good... A little too halting at the start. Unlike Theresa, this kid knows exactly what song to select. He's going to win, and I say this as a man confident in his heterosexuality.
McDonald's has a neat new spot for the Big Mac, which shows a billboard that rapidly changes through all the old McD's logos.
Why do they insist on making this entire show a cross-promotion for E-Talk Daily? Well, I know why, but let's keep Tanya, and heck, Ben, on their little corner of NewsNet and find a real host for this show, can we?
Should be interesting, especially after that flat performance last week... She definitely does not have Joplin's soul. She's still not pushing herself.
If he's got the pipes, this is the song to show them off. Well, the low end isn't doing much for me... Okay, pretty good. The best of the night, so far. (By the way, if you're reading this, remember to start at the bottom and read up for the proper chronological order.)
Oh, yeah, this song. He's better than the last guy, and way better than his Glass Tiger perf- OW, MY FREAKIN' EARS! This show needs a gong, to bring acts like this to an early end.
Nope. He's just way too fake-sounding to pull off Ike and Tina Turner. And buy a clue about music, Ben... CCR's version is a classic, but this is far more representative of the Turners' cover.
It's LIVE BLOGGING during Canadian Idol! Just getting underway, so stay tuned. (BTW, I expect traffic to skyrocket for no reason.)
