“Satire to keep you sane in a sea of red mittens.”

CANADA DECLARES WAR ON ANYBODY

CANADIAN OLYMPIC SATIRIST BANISHED TO ICE FLOW; BLAMES MONTY PYTHON

HOW VANOC MOLDED THE MEDIA

The 2 videos below of Gimme Gold (The IOC Song), were made by OLY and the FAT CATS to lampoon the fiscal hypocrisy of the 2010 Olympics. ( BC has the Highest Child-Poverty Rate and Lowest Minimum Wage in Canada, but found a Billion Dollars for a new convention centre and $30 million in bonuses for  Olympic organizers.)

We also used it to raise money for Women’s Support Groups. (Thanks to all of you who made donations!)

This Whistler Version of the video includes a special intro by Oly himself!

Vancouver Version

OLY and the FAT CATS’ manager Big Daddy VeeCee (video below) introduces Andrew Jennings’ presentation on the shady history of the Olympic movement at the Summit Lodge in Whistler, Canada on December 8, 2009. (View the first part of Mr. Jennings’s presentation here.)

“This town likes to talk about sustainability, but aint no species survivin’ without diversity, and that includes diversity of opinion … if we shut that down in this town we might as well put up a Disneyland sign on the highway and call it a night.”

    Wait a minute ! I recognize that voice…could it be…yes ! I think you are my long lost brother ! That son they went back to? He never amounted to anything. I do believe he got the Darwin award last year when he peed on a transformer. As for me..they left me on the beach in Santa Monica. Maybe we’ll see each other again one day :)

    we underestimate the greed of man at our peril. Here in the south we eat mountain oysters which are really sheep balls. So called because they’re round and live in the hills. But why would you go there? Your natural Aussie will eat anything on the ground, or under it for that matter. I guess the general clime is a factor there. As it is in the north where the natives will eat anything on the ice or under it. Is it all about survival? A fisherman in China, left with the fin after eating a whole shark, will then proceed to make soup from it. Why not leave the fin, return it to the sea? There must be some sort of trophy/conquest thing going on. And then to birds nest soup. ok I get the eggs but then why stop at the nest ? eat the door frame too.
    New Chinese menu – Birds nest soup with door frame attached. Sigh.
