The very top of my Christmas list!!!

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) -- The New Zealand Rugby Union has come up with an unusual piece of memorabilia: a poster containing DNA from every member of this year's All Blacks.

The Bonded by Blood limited-edition posters are being made by sportswear manufacturer Adidas. The poster shows the All Blacks performing a traditional Maori haka or war dance and contains DNA taken from sterilized blood samples provided by each player.

"Each All Black gave a small amount of blood which was then sterilized and used to create the limited-edition run of Bonded by Blood posters," Adidas' New Zealand marketing manager Craig Waugh said.

Adidas has been an All Blacks sponsor since 1999 and issues team posters annually."This year we wanted to do something different to reflect the depth of support All Blacks fans give to their team," Waugh said.

"Adidas believes rugby is an essential part of New Zealand's DNA and we wanted to show how the players and their supporters are inextricably linked -- how supporting the All Blacks is in our blood,"All Blacks captain Richie McCaw endorsed the poster."It's a new thing. It's something that's pretty cool," he said. "The All Blacks team is all about combining everyone together and blood is one way to do it."

New Zealand Blood Service chief executive Dr. Graeme Benny said the blood used in the posters had been heated to 121 degrees Celsius so any viruses and bacteria were killed.

The limited-edition posters are given to fans who buy a replica All Blacks jersey and can't be bought separately.

question

Why does the Bay department store, at Oakridge Centre in Vancouver, make men have to go upstairs and walk through the entire lingerie department to access the washrooms?

Fun With MOOSE ANTLERS!!!

My coworker, Elisa, lives in a farm in Deroche; a boonieville near Mission (such a place exists).

I was having a talk with her a few days back, and she was telling me how she was cleaning out her barn, and all the stuff that was in there gathering dust.

"oh you know, its full of stalls, hay, chicken wire, some empty coops, pitchforks, feed, some moose antlers, old tractor parts.."

"HOLD UP..." I yelled. "Did you say moose antlers?!!??"

Next thing you know, I am now the proud owner of a large set of moose antlers. They are in the back of my truck as I type this, as my sister blatantly refuses to allow such a thing into her house.

Now I must await the completion of my townhouse (however long that may take) so I can proudly display them above the garage door. In the meantime, I have come up with many ideas in which these antlers can be used:

1- attach a leash to them and walk around my neighbourhood, yelling "Bubba?? Bubba??? has anyone seen my Bubba?"

2- Walk into a library and throw them on the floor, when everyone looks in my direction, i grab the top of my head with both hands, yell "oh no, not now!" and run away

3- make a paper mache skull for it, attach a red lightbulb for a nose, and then go to the mall during Christmas, just so i can stand in front of Santa, hold the head in front of him and declare "what's up now, punk?"

any other ideas???

Respect


John Tenta passed away yesterday after a bout of cancer. He is survived by his wife and three children.

Most of you would know him as "Earthquake" from his pro wrestling days. The man who was foe to Hulk Hogan, and of course, the dude who killed Jake The Snake's main squeeze, Damien.

His son, Jeff Tenta was a good friend of Aaron Richards (wigger, wiggy, etc.) as the Tenta's were residents of Surrey, BC before moving to Florida.

What I remember best was a few years back during the summer days, when Jeff apparently ran away from home, crossed the border illegally and took up residence in Wiggy's house. The story a few days after is when they were playing video games upstairs and heard a massive banging on the front door followed with a goliath of a holler demanding "JEFF!"

Imagine, looking out your window, and seeing Earthquake blood red with rage and trying to smash your front door in.

I wonder how well he would have stood up to a polar bear.
