Monday Round Up: Golden Globes Yo

*The Prime Minister was in town today speaking to the Vancouver Board of Trade. Tough crowd. The place where Paul Martin once won praise for deficit fighting was quiet house as, "the business audience sat in stony silence as Mr. Martin laid out a long critique of Conservative Leader Stephen Harper's election platform costing." Martin, like some fanatical Cliff Ronning lovers want to return things to 1994/5.

*And Liberal Vancouver MP and Industry Minister David Emerson checks in with supportive quote following up Martin: "It's the last 10 minutes, you're down 3-1, we'd better pull the goalie soon." Reporters asked, do you mean pull Prime Minister Paul Martin? "No, it's not Paul Martin, er, the goalie is, er, uh, rough up a few Conservatives. I think I've said enough."

*Vanmega points out that Matt Pond PA and Youth Group are doing The Red Room on March 2nd. Tickets on sale Thursday. Also noticed this cup cake photo on Vanmega. Delicious.

*Did you watch the Golden Globes? Did you hear a certain actor, win a certain award, and get huge props? That was Vancouvers own Bill Vince, producer of Capote when Philip Seymour Hoffman give him and his Infinity Media huge ups.

*A friend of ours wanted a NDP/Svend Robinson button the other week. She was told they were rationing them, and since she wasn't technically in the riding the bastards at the Seymour office of the NDP said nyet. But we just found that you can get an amazing Jack Layton moustache icon for you MSN or Blog. Not sure if this is good or just plain creepy. More: The Conservatives now have a whole moustache tv spot, "Jack Talk".
