A teenage band from a Japanese school playing Benny Goodman.
If you are old enough you will smile,
if you are young,
you will
love it.
Turn your speakers on! and watch in full view
Be sure to watch the band kid's expressions
when the performance
is over.

In a week of turmoil in Politics,
Australia's first female Prime Minister
Julia Gillard was voted out by her Labor colleagues
just three months from the Federal Election

Monday July 1st is Canada Day
A Country
Is Born
Britain's
North American colonies -
Canada, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick,
Prince Edward
Island and Newfoundland -
grew and prospered independently.
However, with the
emergence of a more powerful United States
after the American Civil War,
some
politicians felt a union of the British colonies
was the only way to fend off
eventual annexation.
On July 1, 1867, Canada East, Canada West,
Nova Scotia and
New Brunswick joined together
under the terms of the British North America Act
to become the Dominion of Canada.
The government of the new country was based
The government of the new country was based
on
the British parliamentary system,
with a Governor General (the Crown's
representative)
and a Parliament consisting of an elected House of Commons
and
an appointed Senate.
Parliament received the power to legislate
over certain
matters of national interest,
while the provinces were given legislative powers
over matters of "particular" interest
(such as property and
education).

A man from Ontario wanted to become a Newfie.
He went to the neurosurgeon and asked, "Is there anything you can
do to me that would make me into a Newfie?".
"Sure it's easy." replied the neurosurgeon. "All I have to do is
cut out 1/3 of your brain, and you'll be a Newfie."
The man from Ontario was very pleased, and immediately underwent
the operation.
However, the neurosurgeon's knife slipped, and instead of cutting
1/3 of the patient's brain, the surgeon accidentally cut out 2/3 of
the patient's brain. He was terribly remorseful, and waited
impatiently beside the patient's bed as the patient recovered from the
anesthetic.
As soon as the patient was conscious, the neurosurgeon said
to him "I'm terribly sorry, but there was a ghastly accident.
Instead of cutting out 1/3 of your brain, I accidentally cut out 2/3 of
your brain."
The patient replied "Qu'est-ce que vous avez dit, monsieur?"

A Newfie is on vacation in Texas and walks into a bar.
He
says to the bartender, "Gimme a beer, bye."
The bartender does so and
at the same time starts with some small talk.
.."From your accent, I can
tell y'all're not from around here.
Where're you from?"
The Newfie says, "I'm from Newfoundland, bye."
BT-- "Where's that?"
NF-- "If you go about 2000 miles straight north from here,
then hang a
right and go another 2000 miles,
you'd be in Newfoundland."
BT-- "Wow! That's far away.
It must be somewhere near China!"
NF-- "I expect so! I work with two Chinese fellows,
and they go home for
lunch everyday."

An
Australian Bushland farmer decided one day that he would sell his cattle
as a
cash protection against a predicted drought.
He called a cattle buyer who
examined the bovines and set a price.
Deciding
it was far too low, the farmer decided he might do better
by offering them for
auction at the district fair.
There,
the cows broke loose and trampled down a gate leading to a tent
where the
district band was playing "Waltzing Matilda."
They milled around the
uniformed musicians
and fortunately hurt no one.
The
crowd from the cattle auction followed the animals
into the tent and cheered
them on.
When the auction resumed later,
the cattle had gained so much
attention
they sold for twice as much as the original offer.
This
surely proves that a herd in the band is worth two in the bush.

With
the weather sunny and warm,
a driver was cruising down the interstate highway
when a huge truck crashed into the side of his car
, severing his arm at the
shoulder.
Two teenagers, observing the accident,
volunteered to rush the
severed arm to the local hospital
for considered restructuring to the driver's
shoulder.
Several hours later, with the driver at the hospital
and no sign of
the young teenagers or the man's arm,
the police put out an APB for the teenage
drivers saying,
"This is the worse case of arm robbery in police
history."
