Happy Canada day!

Happy Canada day, everyone!

Here's a list of some of my favourite Canadian things/people

Maple syrup. Yum! Pancakes simply cannot exist without it.

The music band Barenaked Ladies, also known as BNL. You're always guaranteed to have a blast at their live performances, their lyrics are beautiful, they harmonize, they're great musicians and they have a wicked sense of humour!

Canada Dry ginger ale. Not too sweet, not too bitter. Tastes good by itself, but also great as a chaser and in fruit punch.

Kiefer Sutherland. Mr. Jack Bauer himself. He rocks. He's a fantastic actor. He's sexy. He loves music and helps new bands make it in the business. All the fans say he's polite and considerate. From what I read, he knows how to party.

Having four seasons. Each one is beautiful in its own way. Some are longer than others, though...

Bryan Adams. He writes the perfect rock ballads and driving music. He speaks French with a terribly sexy accent.

Keanu Reeves. What can I say? He's pretty to look at!

G.I. Joe...

... has Jack Bauer action figures.

Tad Allagash returns!

That young, fresh, handsome party animal in a suit will be back on dvd on September 2nd, as Bright Lights, Big City, gets re-released.

Yes!!! Let the party begin!

Because there are always drinks to be drunk and women to be Allagashed!

And this time, the dvd comes with extras that include:

• Commentary with author/screenwriter Jay McInerney


• Commentary with cinematographer Gordon Willis


• “The Light Within” featurette


• ”Big City Lights” featurette


• Photo gallery

I hope there are pictures of Fred the ferret too!

Random Jack fact

It takes you 24 weeks just to watch what Jack Bauer does in a single day.

I've been tagged. I have to write a blog with 10 weird, random, facts, habits or goals about myself. I'm going to go along with it, because "weird" and "random" are words that describe me quite well. I know I've kind of done it before in this post, but I'll try not to repeat myself.

1. My goal in life is to be happy and to make people happy.


2. I sometimes wear a tiara when I am doing the dishes, because if I'm going to do something boring, I might as well look fabulous doing it.





3. Some people have confessed to me that they didn't think I'd be a good teacher because I don't look like one. I wear what the hell I want, don't care much to do anything special with my curly hair and very seldom wear makeup. In my mind, being a teacher is about being. Not about looking.



4. I am a creature of habits. I take a shower and wash my hair every morning. If, for some reason, I take a shower but don't wash my hair, I feel messy all day.


5. I hate making phone calls.


6. When I eat pie, I start by eating the filling, and then I eat the crust. I think the best part of a pie is the bottom crust, so I save it for last.





7. I love travelling and would love to travel more. I like discovering people, languages, foods and places. But I'm always happy to come back home and would like to spend my old days living in my parents' house. To me, that is the best place on earth. They have a beautiful house made of field stones, a nice lawn, a forrest, apple trees and I equal this place with love and happiness.


8. I wish my 17 year old cat would laugh.





9. Yes, I'll admit it. My best friend and I bought NKOTB tickets for the upcoming concert in Montreal. We saw them live when we were teenagers and are excited to see them again and relive the fun. We will be 2 thirtysomethings cheering grown up men who sing "oh, oh, oh, she's my cover giiiiiirl"!





10. I wish Kiefer Sutherland would film a nude scene.

Messy nights with Kiefer

The Feeling have claimed that they had some "messy" nights with Kiefer Sutherland while in America.

Sutherland recently agreed to team up with the group to direct a video for a single from their Join With Us album.

Speaking about their relationship with the 24 actor, bassist Richard Jones said: "I would refer to Kiefer Sutherland as a friend. "We met Kiefer and he heard us play a couple of times and he genuinely really enjoyed our music and we had a real common ground. We like a lot of the same things and we spent quite a few nights out with him. Quite messy.

Jones added: "We were out with him one night until 6 in the morning and then he went straight to the set of 24 but he said he’s supposed to look like that, supposed to look like he’s dying"

Suzanne Shaw knows how to skate...

...and knows a good TV show when she sees one.

The 2008 winner of Dancing On Ice told NOW magazine that she loves to watch Kiefer Sutherland in 24 with a glass of Chardonnay and a plate of chips soaked in salt and vinegar.

'I'm addicted to 24. I'm dedicating all my spare time to watching it,' she says. 'I'm on season six and I love it.'
