Sorry, kids. At work today and busy busy busy.

Ice Prince is doing okay. His face is covered and he even has a chicken pock on his eyeball. But it's not slowing him down much. He's home with Fresh today and I'm trying to get some stuff done here at work.

So talk amongst yourselves. Don't even have time to give you a topic.

UCAUTION
IN THE INTEREST OF SAFETY IT IS ADVISABLE TO KEEP ICE QUEEN AWAY FROM FIRE AND FLAMES.

Under the (Bad) Influence
Oh, I forgot to mention. Ice Prince's GP (that's short for Gradnpa) came to visit and taught Ice Prince a new game called "Achoo!"

Ice Prince runs up to his Dad, pretends to sneeze and dangles a long piece of green playdoh from his nose. "Daddy, I need a kleenex!"
A Pox Upon Both Your Houses!
Ice Prince is home with what seems to be the chicken pox. More later. Working on my crappy home computer. Fancy new one due next week!!!!

In the meantime, how safe is your bathroom?

The Queen is pleased.

Boomer has written his review to the tune of "New York New York" all by himself! I'm so proud. My little banker is growing up!

However, it touts the sale of my DVD, so now I have to design the cover, etc. etc. Stay tuned for that.

"Start spreading the news
The Ice Queen's on stage
You need to see it to believe it, buy the DVD, buy the DVD
That $15 dress
Lights up the stage
The funds go to a good cause
Buy the DVD, Buy the DVD
She's got B-Girlz Conchita, Hard Kora, and Barbie Q
And 4 dancing boys dressed as girls too
She sings and she dances
It's a sight not to be missed
She'll raise a fortune with it
Buy the DVD
It's a special show just at Fashioncares
Patti and Icey don't just sing anywhere
It's up to you, buy the DVD, buy the DVD
Buy the DVD"

All funds from the currently being designed DVD of Mass Humiliation go to my Pride and Remembrance Sashay. (Run? In the heat? Besides, they don't care as long as I pony up the dough. Or do they? How about a scooter? Maybe I could rent roller blades......I'm "hell on wheels in a black dress" - name that tune, my current fave for motivation.)

My lunch date Dear Friend Dave is running a little behind but promises it will make a wonderful story, so I had time to finish my song.

Remember my "Smells Like David Miller" song? (see November archives, Nov 8th.) Well it's time for:
Layton (sung to the tune of Layla by Eric Clapton. Fast or slow version, your choice. If you don't know this song, go sit in the corner for the rest of lunch hour and think about what you've done wrong.)

Well you know you won’t get lonely
With wifey running by your side
You’ve been running and winning much too long.
You know it’s just your foolish pride.

Layton, you’re running in my riding
Layton, and yet I’m still deciding
Layton, honey won’t you shave off your moustache

I tried to give you consideration
’cause I think Mills is such a clown.
Don’t know what to do, can’t fall in love with you,
Although I like Olivia Chow

Layton, the lesser of the evils
Layton, you’re cute but no Mikevil
Layton, darling won’t you ease my indecision

You’ve teeth like little chiclits
Wear pastels just like a pro
You’d do just great in Opposition
Still hurtin’ from my vote for Bob Rae, d’oh!.
Queer Eye for the Little Guy
Boomer has been asked to provide a review of the Ice Queen's Fashion Cares DVD. Watch for it.

This morning, Ice Prince, as usual, chose a free paper to carry on the subway. This morning he chose Xtra. This week's Xtra has a woman on the cover wearing only skimpy undies.

Ice Prince also likes to, every night, take a flyer from the girl handing them out outside the Shoe Company. It boldly announces Body Piercing Services on neon paper.

My boy, the urban preschooler.

Stupid Adult Tricks aka Things That Really Piss Me Off
"Was it murder or mishap? That's what police in Brantford are trying to figure out, after the discovery of two-year-old boy's body in a family car.

The search for Noah Gaudet began early Monday night, when he went missing from the front yard of his home, where he'd been quietly playing with another youngster. When his mother came out to find him later on that evening, he was gone."

LATER ON THAT EVENING?! What kind of idiot mother would leave their 2 year old kid outside to play in the front yard? For a couple of hours?! Ice Prince is allowed to play alone in the back fenced yard while I'm in the kitchen with big windows overlooking the yard. If I don't hear any noise for 30 seconds, I go check on him.

I have nothing more to say. I'm speechless!
The Ice Queen's Canadian Election Special

Having trouble deciding like me? Here's your handy dandy guide to the OTHER political parties in Canada. (Outlaw, not sure what party you thought made us famous. Wasn't the Greens. We did have a party a while back that involved magician Doug Henning levitating himself....we Canadians are wacky folk.)

Parti Citron: Sour to the People! For a bitter Canada, vote lemon!
Platform:
”Paul Martin says he likes lemons, but we see through desperation. As Finance minister for 8 years, Martin did diddley squat to protect and promote our greatest natural resource. Come election time, the Prime Minister is quick to project a pro-lemon image, but his record is clear. Canadians can expect neither responsibility nor crates of lemons with Paul Martin's Liberals.”

Rhinoceros Party
Folded in 1993, but their platform included:
Lower the boiling point of water to save energy, count the Thousand Islands to make sure none were missing, repeal the laws of gravity and breed mosquitoes to hatch in January “so the little buggers freeze to death.”

The Absolutely Absurd Party
Platform:
1. Reduce the legal voting age to 14. "When was the last time a 14 yr old started a war?"
2. “All free trade issues be they with The United States, Mexico or any other Country will deal only with the all-important matter of Breakfast and Lunch. We plan to rewrite the NAFTA agreement to state that Mexico and The USA must supply all Canadians with that all-important first meal of the day: Breakfast. In turn we will supply them with that less then important meal lunch. In fact our negotiation team is presently drafting a deal where The USA and Mexico will supply us with a free all you can eat Brunch and we supply them with a cheap $0.69 Burger with small fries, drink extra.”
3. Streamline the Department of Defense by replacing the Department with a crack, elite squad of Rock/Paper/Scissors

Ronald Reagan is having a sunset funeral.

Brilliant! I want that too—when the time comes, naturally.
My 15 Minutes Are Over
No DVD of my Fashion Cares performance yet. They either sent it straight to a record producer or straight to America's Funniest Home Videos.

The Ice Queen is available for private parties.
It Ain't Easy Being Green
I am seriously thinking about voting for the Green Party. I'm just beginning to research them and so far I like them. Anyone know anything about them that I haven't discovered yet? (legislated cannibalism, etc.) They have a lot of stuff on their website I have to wade through. I saw a brochure of theirs and was very impressed. (excellent graphic design, clever-but not mean-marketing, and so far I like their policies.)

Normally I fall in the Liberal to NDP range, but I'm just not feeling the love this time around. And no, I don't vote strategically, I vote they way my gut tells me to.

Boom Boom Boom Let’s Go...
Boomer is complaining that I didn’t put up a good photo of him. So Lola (new reader) has chosen the following photo in which Boomer “looks hot”. Don’t worry, boys, Lola is just a friend. Boomer is still available. Send your CVs and BVDs to the Icicle Fief and I’ll pass ‘em on.

Boomer Revealed, really!

Boomer has deigned to show his face. He even supplied the picture. (He’s the one on the left.) Apparently, we’ve known each other for so long, that there are black and white photos of us.

Okay, go ahead and laugh. Poke fun. Frolic. Enjoy yourselves at my follicular expense.

The Kids Are Alright
Busy day ahead. Talk amongst yourselves. I'll give you a topic:
Daniel Radcliffe: How many day, hours, minutes until he's legal? He reminds me of Chris Makepeace - star of Meatballs and My Bodyguard. Sigh.

One of my jobs today: find a less offensive picture than the man with the pickle for our newsletter.
