Want to buy underwear from the Canadian government?
OMJ the government of Canada
Last year the interesting business brought in $14 million, so it looks like it’s doing really well for the government. Makes you wonder what else the government is doing. Oh well, at least the deficit is going down….hopefully.

Here is part of the article found on The Star website:
Tonda MacCharles Ottawa Bureau
OTTAWA—It gives a whole new meaning to Crown assets.
The government of Canada in its ongoing quest to balance the books is selling off government property, including—ahem – ladies’ thong underwear.
It’s all about the, uh, bottom line.
After all, the Conservative government has vowed to eliminate the deficit four years from now. Property seized by or forfeited to the Crown must be disposed of.
Why, last year alone, they raked in $14 million.
Public Works and Services Canada’s website is currently displaying a range of sexy thongs that come in pink, magenta, violet, blue, silvery black, white and nude.
And they’re going like hotcakes.
The lingerie, sized XL, was advertised for sale “as is,” and described as “like new.”
A used thong could surely go for — what? 50 cents?
As it turns out, the thongs aren’t “used” – a small translation error, a source explained.
The panties have not been worn, and still have the original tags attached.
However, they’re not exactly “brand new” either.

BRITNEY
Britney Spears’ new album, Femme Fatale, is out today and I like it. I was able to listen to the whole album over the weekend and I am rooting for Miss Britney’s album to do well. I like most of the songs – they are fun, catchy and ready to make you move. I say get the album and enjoy Britney’s latest offering.
My take on each song (the deluxe edition):
No. | Title | Do I like the song? |
1 | "Till the World Ends" | Yes |
2 | "Hold It Against Me" | Yes |
3 | “Inside Out" | Yes |
4 | "I Wanna Go" | Yes |
5 | "How I Roll" | Yes |
6 | “(Drop Dead) Beautiful" (featuring Sabi) | Yes |
7 | "Seal It With a Kiss" | Yes & No |
8 | "Big Fat Bass" (featuring will.i.am) | No! Why, why, why does Will.i.am always feel the need to be featured on every song he produces?!?!?!? He ruins the song - if you cut the first 30 seconds and the last minute then I would really like the song. |
9 | "Trouble for Me" | Yes & No |
10 | "Trip to Your Heart" | No |
11 | "Gasoline" | No. Gasolina by Daddy Yankee Yes. |
12 | "Criminal" | Yes |
13 | "Up N' Down" | Yes |
14 | "He About to Lose Me" | Yes |
15 | "Selfish" | Yes |
16 | "Don't Keep Me Waiting” | Yes & don’t keep miss Spears waiting. |

Scared of Dying?
Msn.ca has posted the top five ways to prolong your life (or as they put it cheat death). The main article and full details can be found on www.menshealth.com
Top Five Ways to Cheat Death:
- live in high altitude
- lower risk of dying from coronary heart disease
- extra UVA – more vitamin D
- make relationships last
- better immune functioning
- fewer risks taken that endanger those relationships
- brush your teeth
- reduces heart disease if you brush 3 or more times per day
- less oral bacteria entering your bloodstream
- breath fresh air
- less dirty air that can trigger inflammatory reactions
- accept your age
- you live 2 years longer
- you experience healthier behaviours
Based on the above list I think I have many, many years ahead to live and enjoy life.
- I work on the fourth floor and I live on a hill
- I have known some people for many, many years
- I brush my tooth (teeth) …3+ times a day umm I don’t know about that.
- I like to think
Toronto - I like my age (in 5 or ten years that may change) plus I am the baby of my family since my siblings are all older then moi...haha. Forever young!
I say enjoy life and make it the best you can. Don’t worry about dying. We will all die at some time point, so why waste time and energy thinking about it. Just have fun and try to live a happy, memorable life.

J.LO - VEN A BAILAR
I am hooked on "Ven a Bailar," which is Jennifer Lopez’s Spanish version of "On the Floor" featuring Pitbull. I like both, English & Spanish, versions of the song…..if I had to choose I would say the Spanish one is mucho better. Check out both versions below.
J.Lo’s upcoming CD titled "Love?" will be in stores sometime in May 2011 (my favourite month…she is so thoughtful J)
In Spanish - Ven a Bailar - J.Lo ft. Pitbull
Music video in English - On the Floor - J.Lo ft. Pitbull

Chris Brown - F.A.M.E
Last week the first review came out for Chris Brown’s latest CD titled F.A.M.E. He stated that the title stands for Forgiving All My Enemies. The review was positive and other sites kept mentioning that he was receiving positive reviews - when really everyone was referring to the only review out at the time, which was done by Entertainment Weekly. I mentioned it to my friends who think he is a great artist and they said I was just hating. So I heard the whole album and it wasn’t good. Some songs are alright, some I liked, some are horrible and some I skipped. Below you will find my reaction to each song.
The album came out today and to promote the release he made a stop at GMA this morning. During the interview Chris Brown was asked a question, which he had approved, on the whole Rihanna situation and he wasn’t too pleased. After his performance, TMZ is reporting that Chris Brown went all crazy – he was angry, lost his temper, there were loud noises coming from his dressing room & that he threw a chair and smashed a window. So he approved the questions and he went all ballistic…umm wow he is just a mess!!
That’s a sure way to promote your album and your new & improved image. Good luck to him! He hasn’t changed and clearly he needs serious help. Go Rihanna - Her CD and singles are doing well. Chris Brown’s F.A.M.E probably won’t do so well. Too bad, better luck next time. And don’t hurt anyone in the process please. After listening to the whole F.A.M.E album (the deluxe CD) here are my thoughts on each song:
No. | Title | Did I like the song? |
1. | "Deuces" (featuring Tyga and Kevin McCall) | Yes |
2. | "Up 2 You" | Yes |
3. | "No Bullshit" | No |
4. | "Look at Me Now" (featuring Busta Rhymes and Lil Wayne) | No |
5. | "She Ain't You" | Yes |
6. | "Say It With Me" | Yes |
7. | "Yeah 3x" | Yes |
8. | "Next 2 You" (featuring Justin Bieber) | No - The ooo le le and oh na na umm no! Justin Bieber doesn't help the song! |
9. | "All Back" | No - It sounds too much like another a song and it's distracting. And he screams several times… OMJ No!!...that just ruins the song!!! |
10. | "Wet the Bed" (featuring Ludacris) | No |
11. | "Oh My Love" | No - You’re a bad man and this is a bad song. |
12. | "Should've Kissed You" | Yes |
13. | "Beautiful People" (featuring Benny Benassi) | No – Like he says in the song NO. |
14. | "Bomb" (featuring Wiz Khalifa) | No – It’s just an annoying song. |
15. | "Love Them Girls" (featuring Game) | No - The repetition becomes annoying…limited lyrics. |
16. | "Paper, Scissors, Rock" (featuring Timbaland and Big Sean) | Yes & No |
17. | "Beg for It" | No |
18. | "Champion" (with Chipmunk) | Yes |
Overall: NO! I think he should have called the album L.A.M.E.
