K-Dough's Budget Day Wish List

So, it's Budget Day in Ontario. The air is ripe with anticipation like Christmas morning, and I've put together a little wish list that may have been whispered in the ear of a little bird that may know someone in a certain Finance Minister's office. Now, I'm not saying these details were actually leaked to me, but I have it on good word that there may be a few goodies in there for the K-Doughster. Remember, you heard it here first kids!

Initiatives expected to aid my flagging portfolio, and the ministerial budgets affected:
  1. PST exemption on all 80s metal merchandise and music (Ministry of Culture)
  2. Elimination of consolidated Mastercard and Credit Line deficit: $17,000 (Ministry of Finance)
  3. $4,500 investment in new hot tub (Ministry of Health Promotion)
  4. New pair of shoes (Ministry of Transportation)
  5. One-time $300 investment to complete unfinished tattoo (Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal)
So stay tuned today. It may be a glorious day for the Dough family. Then again, the budget may have absolutely nothing to do with me. Ha...yeah right. As if.

I don't mind your budget so far except:

1. I don't have a tattoo and hope I can use the $300 for something else... perhaps a sweatervest?
2. I don't see anything about Jennifer Valentyne or Kathryn Humphries.

Unfortunately, the chicks were not included in the budget peter, since the amount of money they requested to have to bed you would have thrown us much farther back in our plans to eliminate the deficit.

LOL, dude! Can crimping irons, pancake make-up and black eye-liner be included in category #1? Wouldn't mind reliving some glory days.
(Although pancake doesn't look so good on creased, middle-aged skin...just look at Mick and the boys now. Shudder.)

I don't think you have any worries, as long as you aren't banging heroin.
As old as the boys are, they sure rocked Ottawa last summer. They might be wrinkled but they are in great shape.

leather- don't forget everyone's favourite dressing room pass time- hairspray torches! (and of course, banging Lee Aaron).

And for the record, Mick is not middle aged. He is ageless. A mummified, time-worn skin-bag of preserved resin.

Pam: The Stones rocking Ottawa is not difficult to comprehend. Ottawa is so conservative that Raffi could rock it.

Yeah, Mick takes good care of himself, but you shoulda seen AC/DC completely blow them off the stage at the SARS concert in Downsview. The Stones looked pretty old and feeble in comparison. It was a life moment

It's also a music moment. I'll take AC-DC over the Stones anyday.

Pam- I don't believe it either! And anyways I wouldn't actually have called it "banging", more like a nervous twitch, and then the faint sound of a bunny farting.

And what the hell is Avianfest? Sounds like a place you need to worry about catching a comunicable diease from a slutty pigeon.

Okay, I'll buy that story.
I would take AC/DC over the Stones, but I thought this might be the last kick at the can. One wrong twist doing the funky chicken and Mick could be using a walker.
You can't have it both ways. Do we have overly-conservative pigeons or slutty pigeons in Ottawa?

Pam: (Witty Ms. Thang): Why do you always seem to get a reference in concerning boobs. It's sexist and unacceptable.

You are stereotyping K-Dough. Soon, K-Dough will be the target of feminist protest and hate mail campaigns from stakeholder groups like the Lesbian Rugby Association of Alberta, headed by Grand Sasquatch, Deborah Grey.

You hurt K-Dough's feelings. Now make me a sandwich and let's make up.

Pam, this is no joke: my (mostly) gay friends took me to Hooters on my 30th birthday. They photographed me with a couple of waitresses, then bought me a hooters shirt and made me wear it around all the gay bars in Toronto. What a night!

PS: I am at home today with a cold, which is why I have the luxury of being online instead of at work. What's everyone else's excuse?

I am going back to bed now.

WARNING. WARNING.

On another arch-nemesis blog, I came across Leatherhands dreaming about what a "hottie" Justin Trudeau is.

Just thought you should all know before you jump onto a massage table with him.

I've actually had one..I think they're a little overrated.

Our masseuse gives good ole fashion swedish style body massages- that does the trick for me.

Leather-if you're ever in town I can hook you up with our regular masseuse. Not to boast, but I've had massages all over the world and she is by the far the best.

All this talk about massage is about to make me blow my budget.

I was surprised to learn recently that Ontario has a Ministry of Francophone Affairs. Given this, I was even more surprised to see that your wish-list asked for nothing that would help you hook up with Mitsou.

They are longer massages (~90 min), warm oil and hot stones. The stones are placed on the back (or chest) to relax the muscles while the RMT is working on another area.The heated stones are also used to massage the muscles.If you can slip them past your insurance company, go for it. They are awesome.

Havril: I am relying on a mix of kismet, a lot of cologne, a case of Laurentide and the fact that I have a remarkably large unit. Them French chicks dig that.

And don't exaggerate- we only have an Office of Francophone Affairs- not a ministry.

Yeah please, I'll try your masseuse. My guy's awesome, but has been lecturing me lately on how I should take up yoga, cause my tendons are a wreck, my neck muscles are destroyed, blah blah blah.... I just want him to shut the fuck up and get to it.
Pam- thanks for the info..sounds awesome, but I'm picturing white-hot rocks on my bare back...must leave one hell of a welt!
Chucker- thank you for perpetuating my "sexually ambiguous" image I've been working hard to promote....if you go back to that thread, I've left you a homoerotic doozy.

Today, I missed the party while people here were having fun in my blog. But I am too sick with a cold and sour throat to join the party.
K-Dough, may be you should also join those farmers outside Queens Park to present your wish list to McGuinty. Those farmers have been sleeping there for the past few dayz. You can join them if you want tomorrw and if I see a K-Dough wish list, I will come around to see you and may be present McGuinty with my wish list too.

Thanks for the advice. Now where's the massage table? Don't worry, Chuckercanuck, I'll get to you later.

And by the way Chuckercanuck, what was the archnemesis blog you were on: Stories of Hot, Stoned Swedish Masseurs? Or, Poolboys on Parade?
