frozen-vodka / 2003-08-20 00:44:56Name it Tatutina if it's a girl its the most amazing name ever and you can dress her up in little fairy costumes and call her your princess, *sigh* the childhood I always wanted
kelly / 2003-08-20 00:47:36Heh. Canadians. Can't be trusted with candles. ;)
Kelly / 2003-08-20 00:58:15Who in the heck is the Juicy Fruit guy? I know of the gum, but not of the guy..
Melissa / 2003-08-20 01:00:35Oh it's this ad that is always on TV here, or a series of them. Maybe it's just canadian, or maybe it's just on the channels I watch the most.
andrew / 2003-08-20 01:01:52is this the same mayor, who like, 5 years ago, wrote a letter to the Spice Girls BEGGING them not to break up because they owed it to Toronto to suck it up and do their show there because they owed it to him ... errr, I mean, THE 15 YEAR OLD GIRL FANS to do their promised show all intact with all the members and stuff? Because if so, it is all coming together now ...
ann-frank / 2003-08-20 01:01:53Re: Spice girls, Haha, yeah, I believe that was him yes. When I searched his quote on the internet while writing this entry, this article from Australia called him "known for his gaffes". I forget what his most recent was, but it was about the olympics or something i think? hard to keep track.
Andrew / 2003-08-20 01:06:01Who is the juicy fruit guy? Is he like the guy who walks around the mall in waterbury listening to his headphones smiling and singing "to" random people. When you're there at least for me, it's about as much as I can do to keep from bursting out laughing, because he's just so happy and I'm just so not happy. Interesting how some people can be so happy doing something so bizzare as walking around the mall listening to music bobbing his head. I wish I could be that happy. But, anyways who's the juicy fruit guy?
Chloe / 2003-08-20 01:12:35I'm not familiar with the juicy fruit guy either. It's been years since I have seen a juicy fruit commerical and even then they were just advertising the gum itself with some kind of catchy praise. It's always the cheesy mentos commericals here in the midwest. "mentos fresh and full of life". Oh and icebreakers gum they have really sensual commericals. People half naked and making out. What a way to sell gum.
adilee / 2003-08-20 01:24:48i wish we had a juicyfruit guy in america. is he kinda like the dr pepper guy from the late 70's early 80's? 'im a pepper, hes a pepper, shes a pepper, were all peppers, wouldnt yooooou like to be a pepper toooooooo!
onewetleg / 2003-08-20 01:43:46I toally agree with the juicy fruit guy, I actually quite like the jingle for the gum myself. Man what a rough world. lol, and kudos to you and the new baby, take care, ciao :)
lillian / 2003-08-20 01:46:26You could name the baby " lil' juice" to help you remember the J fruit man. Hey do I get a baby too? I think I'll let mine run around naked. There's enough time for clothes after you're grown. Come see me in Hawaii. Just remeber to bring some earplugs with you. Love from Joy with Hawaii's Noisy Frog Invasion News
Joy (The frog fight gal) / 2003-08-20 02:40:55I'm not too far from toronto, and I want a baby to, if yours bites can it come to live with me? I'll dye it's hair, and give it punked out clothes and hundreds of bracelets. Name it Chadwick. Is it pink! Oh I'm so excited.
^pat-trick^ / 2003-08-20 03:37:41JUICY FRUIT IS GONNA MOOOOVE YA>>>a taste that's gonna move yah when you pop it in your mouth *swoosh* vaccuumed up by that street sweeper. Juicy Fruit RED!
^pat-trick^ / 2003-08-20 03:38:46it sounds like canadians are a bunch of really pleasant toddlers. " you guys are real troopers in the dark, but please do not play with matches. "
alex / 2003-08-20 03:43:44heeh your not allowed to play with matched so go make babies... lol hmm we have juicy fruit ad's in america but their silly like a attack kitten to prevent people from leeching juicy fruits off of you or a car door you carry around..
lol / 2003-08-20 05:26:15Maybe it will be that GIANT baby, since you already have a bottle for it.
deanna / 2003-08-20 07:08:43HAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! Well, I'm sure a lot of people will be pregnant, what else is there to do in a blackout? I'm too young so I was making out with a giant teddy bear. You made your mayor sound like a crazy loon. The mayor of NY is a selfish, rich New Yorker dude named Mike Bloomberg, he has a lisp and only cares about himself and he's lazy and he has his own TV channel the NOBODY watches, only stock market losers.
Yasmin / 2003-08-20 09:22:36Andrew, I am writing from Calgary (that's the West Coast for all our American friends). Some of the computers in our city went out too as they were somehow "networked" to their head offices in Toronto. We took advantage of this to shut off all the lights (to prevent surges of course), lit small fires in the office and made smores! What a great Country we live in! I say we all pull the plugs on our electrical equip. more often! Good luck with the baby! xo
C-Spot / 2003-08-20 09:58:04The Toronto mayor sounds like a prick (no offense) but if he is bad mouthing his own poeple, he must suck. It is not like we in the ststes have a terrific leader though. Oh, and dress it up as Gene Simmons from KISS.
Ironbull / 2003-08-20 20:41:55Andrew, your child must be bald and toothless. He/she must also wear one of those awful baby headbands. Maybe people will make it out to be a thug...
Tamara / 2003-08-21 00:26:17I love Mel, he is such a crazy guy. Someone, somewhere should make a book about his crazy adventures.
YenMano / 2003-08-21 00:59:55Have it for dinner. I'm sure Toronto won't mind..
Postbagboy / 2003-08-21 03:21:00I think if I get a baby I'll send it back. Maybe I'll give it to charity and they can put it with all the donated toys that are X-mas presents for unfortunate kids. That'd be good. Some little girl will get a realistic babydoll this year! I like kids and all but I have a problem changing the diaper of a kid I didn't personally squeeze outta my womb....the world we live in makes you feel like chester the molestor when you even look at another kid anyhow. Oh....and we have these great commercials here where I am. They're not FUNNY at ALL cause they're child abuse commercials in which the voice-over says somethin about how if only it was this easy to spot a child abuser and shows a person with a kid and the adult is wearing a shirt or cap or coat with the words "child abuser" stitched onto it. I guess it's sposed to be making people turn people in for child abuse even if they don't know for sure (which i think is scary anyhow....for the innocents I mean) but I keep wondering how interesting it would be to make a shirt that said child abuser on the back and then take some kids and go grocery shopping. Sort of a social science experiment per se. Hmm.... Hey Andrew...kudos on keeping DL up and running during a blackout. We never lost power here so I watched it all on cable and was online during the commercials in my air conditioned house.... Bummer about the blackout tho...
I do what my rice crispies tell me to do / 2003-08-21 21:24:16Dress it up like the mayor. See what he says.
Sushi / 2003-08-21 22:05:2319th august is my birthday - waaay to go me! Moving on...
Lindsey / 2003-08-22 19:46:35dude!.. you're having a baby?? wow!.. by the way.. how old are u??.. just wondering ya know. A long time ago I stumbled on your diary and I read somewhere something about you not showing a pic of urself and that you might do it .. or not?.. or something.. lol.. i dont know.. did u ever show one?.. neways.. later! :)
Blanca / 2003-08-22 21:13:39werd. If I get a kid, I'm just going to be like b**** take it.
Owned / 2003-08-23 04:37:49yarr, I be a Torontonian too! Whereabouts in TO do you live Andrew? And yes, I think beloved Mel did say we get babies, but only if we're married.
Regan / 2003-08-24 23:48:51Aww, in California we can't afford to give out babies. Not like we have a mayor to give them out anyways. How lame. If I got a baby, I'd dress it up as Mikey Mouse and let it loose in Disneyland! I wish I knew what Juicy Fruit man you were talking about, our JF commercials advertise car doors and attack kittys. Did I mention how lame we were over here?
Katie / 2003-08-25 20:26:45Is this Juicy Fruit guy anything like the Sprite guy? Cuz he's some scary dude, seriously... *coughs* Yeah Im done now. Good luck with your kid, haha. ;)
Ara / 2003-08-26 15:46:04To Kelly, and no offence to Andrew, who rocks... Torontonians are the only canadians we don't trust with candles... Torontonians are like that wierd uncle everyone has... We like to pretend they're not related to us. They're the canadians we only admit to under severe pressure from a bully. lol
Alice / 2003-08-27 07:53:53your choice of layout is kinda cute. x
sarika / 2003-08-27 13:44:38Haha. Cool entry. It would've been funny if he had a self-lighting candle where he would blow it out and then say, "See that? Hero." and then let it light itself again and then say, "Villain." and then do that a few more times to get his point across.
Stupid / 2003-08-27 23:34:13Not related to your entry, but related to your diary: I was changing my template and messed up my comments. I freaked, and by freaked...yeah, it got ugly. So, not knowing what else to do, I started searching for diaries that had the comments option. Interestingly enough, yours was the first one in my list of daily reads that did. So I checked out your source code, saw where I messed up, and fixed it. Not only are you the illustrious creator of Diaryland, you single-handedly saved my comments today!! All hail the mighty Andrew!! See, not related to an entry, but not a Diaryland help question either!
frozen-vodka / 2003-08-28 18:05:07Count your blessings. As far as your mayor's gaffes--it could be LOTS worse. You could be living here, in California. =)
Dami / 2003-08-31 12:04:20i'm looking for the juicy fruit attack kitten. i can't find him. some one find him and let me know.
jon / 2003-09-03 08:17:47i still love you! you're the coolest and cutest
