SITES FOR SORE EYES

More Sites For Sore Eyes from WFMU. And this instalment featuring Canadian content!

COUNTRY SINGER, JEFF STRYKER!!
http://www.lgcma.com/lgcma-jeffstryker.htm
Mr. Stryker is multi-talented. He sings. He's country. And with radio-friendly hits like "What a Man Has to Do" and "Pop you in the Pooper" it won't be long before his star really starts to rise.

NORTH AMERICAN DIALECT SOCIETY
http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/~golder/dialect
Led by Harvard researchers, this project has been chronicling U.S. regional dialects on-line since 1999. Now comprising responses from thousands of willing Americans, the survey sheds light on legions of befuddling questions: What do you call the gooey or dry matter that collects in the corners of your eyes, especially while you are sleeping? (38% call it "sleep," 10.1% prefer "eye booger" and the rest are simply confused.) What do you call a drive-through liquor store? How do you whip a shittie? All I can say is: Ooglers of the world - unite!

NYHETER

Swedish invasion indeed.

STATE OF THE UNION
http://www.asu.net/bsh/union.mov
Dubya expresses fear and selfishness and embraces tyranny and greed as a cause. Evil. Evil. Evil. Requires Quicktime.

REVEREND PHIL ROBINSON, DUCK COMMANDER
http://www.cacoc.org/audio_files.htm
Reverend Phil addresses the devout of El Dorado, Arkansas---and does it using duck calls. (Warning: Remove any household pets from the vicinity of your computer. They will find this very disturbing.)

VANCOUVER POLICE DEPARTMENT INVESTIGATION WEB PAGE
http://www.city.vancouver.bc.ca/police/guns&roses/allimages.htm
November 7, 2002: Disgruntled Guns N Roses fans stir it up, Canadian-style. Rest assured - the Vancouver police aren't taking this lightly, and are rounding up the criminals as we speak.
