THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD I SHALL NOT FINISH HIM!!!!
   VATICAN CITY – While walking down the aisle in St. Peter's Basilica, Pope popeBenedict XVI was knocked down by a woman who jumped the barriers..
  The woman, who was dressed all in red, was then struck by the Popes’ staff and knocked back against the wall.  She then performed a flying leg kick, but was blocked and knocked to the ground where the Pope hit her with a quick barrage of his fists.
  Suddenly, a voice from above called out “FINISH HIM!” and the reached into the woman's chest, ripped out her heart and held it aloft while the words “FATALITY” appeared above him.
  As a bizarre coincidence, Midway Games has just announced the new game “Mortal Kombat Vatican.”



LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW … ETC.
  A massive winter storm that hit the Canadian Maritimes this week, stunning the citizens that seemed to have forgotten that they live in Canada.
  “This is remarkable,” Gordie McFinnigan said while trying to remember how to shovel his driveway.  “I know they have snow like this in Canada, but I’ve never seen it like this here in this country where I live.”
  Meanwhile, in Halifax, two horses looked at each other in the woods.  I even have a picture of it, see.  It’s over there to the right, where I put all the pictures.  Yeah, I know I should probably try to put some pictures over there on the left, but it really throws off the balance of the page.  Anyway this isn’t about me, it’s about the horses … over there … on the right … Aren’t they pretty?

CPFOG The BLOG is:
Gord Gardiner – Writer and guy who loves pictures of horses in the snow.  Wern’t they pretty?
Jen Gardiner – Prrrrrrfrrrrrredder and thought up the “On Christmas day” joke, which allowed me to talk about domestic battery without directly making fun of it.  (But still, if it offended you in any way, it’s her fault.)
BUT I REALLY LIKED THAT BASEBALL MOVIE HE WAS IN, WHICH IS WHY I USED THE PICTURE.
