#10 Canada. Do you remember bank calendars? When I was little my sister and I always waited between velvet ropes with my dad to see the bank teller — while lines rounded, stamps pounded, and thumbs counted, bills. Sometimes we grabbed faded pink and green deposit slips — the ones printed on the thinnest paper ever — and amused ourselves drawing on them or making million-dollar withdrawals on behalf of Scrooge McDuck.
Trips to the bank were pretty boring with only three major highlights: 1) Watching someone slowly open that thick giant door to the vault with metal-prongs the size of tennis ball containers, 2) Listening to the dot matrix printer screech a few lines onto my dad’s vinyl bank book, and 3) If we were really lucky, being handed a brand new calendar for next year full of beautiful scenery shots of Canada. Yes, my sister and I would flip through those calendars in the back of the station wagon on the ride home. Dad, you were right: 1. Drink till you drop. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 10. Thank you!
Bonuses for Billionaires. Why would we impose “job-crushing taxes” on wealthy Americans just to pay for luxuries like federal prisons? Why end the “carried interest” tax loophole for financiers, just to pay for unemployment benefits — especially when those same selfless tycoons are buying yachts and thus creating jobs for all the rest of us? Hmmm. The truth is that House Republicans don’t actually go far enough. They should follow the logic of their more visionary members with steps like these: BONUSES FOR BILLIONAIRES Republicans won’t extend unemployment benefits, even in the worst downturn in 70 years, because that makes people lazy about finding jobs. Likewise, the government should take sterner measures against the persistent jobless.
Oh, never mind! LET JOBS TRICKLE DOWN Leftist pundits say that House Republicans don’t have a jobs plan. Cut, Cap and Balance would go even further than the Ryan budget plan in starving the beast of government. For that matter, who needs socialized police and fire services? 19 Hilarious Harry Potter Comics | Smosh. THE FUCKING WEATHER. Old Spice Voicemail Message Generator.

Courtesy of Rick Mercer from This Hour Has 22 Minutes, CBC Television: On behalf of Canadians everywhere I'd like to offer an apology to the United States of America. We haven't been getting along very well recently and for that, I am truly sorry. I'm sorry we called George Bush a moron.
He is a moron but, it wasn't nice of us to point it out. If it's any consolation, the fact that he's a moron shouldn't reflect poorly on the people of America. After all it's not like you actually elected him. I'm sorry about our softwood lumber. I'm sorry we beat you in Olympic hockey. I'm sorry about your beer. I'm sorry about our waffling on Iraq. And finally on behalf of all Canadians, I'm sorry that we're constantly apologizing for things in a passive-aggressive way which is really a thinly veiled criticism. 50 Things I Am Not Allowed To Do At Hogwarts.
