Jian for Governor General!

Rick Mercer (Canadian comedian and satarist) has a new show called Monday Report. It's sort of a parody on news programming. Now that he's finished with his contest to find the craziest mayor in Canada - he is taking votes to suggest who should be Paul Martin's new Governor General. Since being a successful television personality seems to be a requirement these days, Fruvous' own Jian Ghomeshi is apparently one of the front runners. He's got the eyes of an Arabian princess apparently.

So - go here and vote for Jian to become Canada's next GG. :)

Oh boy... don't call him Arabian to his face...

why?
do arabs have short tempers?

;)

(yes, I actually know why)

Erm, why does Jian look like a 19yr old half-elf in that photo?
He looks like he walked off the cover for a D&D suplement.

*begins to wonder what Jian's THAC0 is, and then decides he doesn't want to think about it* ;-)

I wonder if he'll be angry at Rick Mercer for that. It's... Rick Mercer!

Gyaaa! You're right.

And the problem with his THAC0 is figuring out what happens when he starts talking. Is it more of a taunt, or a distraction bonus?

Can't trust them Newfs. ;o)

last night on "RICK MERCER'S MONDAY REPORT" (for those of you in america, it's a smart, prime-time canuck version of "THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART"), mr. mercer asked "who should be canada's next GOVERNOR GENERAL?" his top three contenders included "jian ghomeshi, host of >play, because he has the eyes of an arabian princess." i was offended by this. offended because he failed to mention that i also have the pout of an arabian hooker.

nevertheless, a poll has been set up on the monday report website for humans to vote for their favourite candidate for governor general. i might suggest that you log on and vote for me. if i win it will be a victory for suppressed arabian princesses everywhere. seriously.

here's the link

please vote for me. pass it on. we can win this thing!

yours (with a smile),

jian

Heh, he sent another one out on his Wonderboy mailer that said he had the "mouth of a south asian hooker". ;)

I'm reading this in the computer lab at university and seriously, I guffawed at some of this thread!� especially the "arabian hooker" part!��

There should be a warning on this thread.��

PS - I did vote for him.�� I forgot to mention that he's also very inclusive and that would be an asset to have a governor general who doesn't nitpick about mammality.

"mouth of a south asian hooker"

o/~ time to focus on Jian, I think he's a south asian hooker o/~

Placental mammals, sure, but I haven't heard his thoughts on the marsupials yet.
