For the next 10 days, MaxPower will feature reviews of some of the movies being screened at the Toronto International Film Festival, 2006. The festival is quoted as being “…second only to Cannes in terms of high-profile pics, stars and market activity,” and is also considered the unofficial kick-off to the Oscars race. Three to four hundred films are screened in 10 days and MaxPower will be having our own ‘Senior Toronto Film Festival Correspondent’ covering the event; code named Fat Cat.Fat Cat is a Toronto based movie buff who covers cinematic issues and events for MaxPower. Before becoming our Senior Toronto Film Festival Correspondant, he wrote for the Brampton Guardian and Toronto Star covering everything from sports to the cinema. He has also judged the Miss Brampton beauty pageant and produced and published his own comic strip.

With limited patience for slow and long movies, Fat Cat will be giving us all we need to know about the various films he will be seeing over the next 10 days. In his first instalment Fat Cat reviews 3 movies: The Journals of Knud Rasmussen, Lights in the Dusk, and 2:37.

A long time ago, an age in fact, I wrote a post called ‘Top 10 Dirtiest ACDC Songs’. Since then, I have had several blog incarnations and had lost the text. Sad. But Lo, a fortitious email brings word of said long lost post! Seems I was smart enough to submit it to blogcritics. Seeing as how I wrote it, I now place it in its rightful home here on maxpower.

In the interveening years, my appreciation for ACDC has only deepened. They truly rocked SARS stock. So with a new appreciation, I present a redux of the original — Top 10 Dirtiest ACDC Songs.

ACDC is indeed one of the greatest live rock acts to be seen, full stop. You can’t help but smile pump your fist when you hear the chorus of ‘caught with your pants down.’ Recently, I was pondering life, wondering how these guys could be so successful and it hit me! Steps to success: 1) simple blues based hard rock, 2) distortion, 3) schoolboy outfit, and 4) crazy voiced singers. Sheer genius! Its like they are in a rock n’roll band singing about sex, drugs, and rock n’roll… What moxy!

Anyway, I was listening to ACDC and came up with this short list of their best innuendo filled rock numbers. Each song is listed with a small choice lyrical excerpt. For those of you not familiar with ACDC, I’m not making this up. Drumroll please….

These rednecks find a big ass maco shark chewing down on a tarpon. Its an 8 minute video, of which the last minute is the best. All the random redneck sounds are (literally) a hoot.

G’on, Jeremy, POKE HIM! Get’im! Go’on POKE THAT BITCH!

Remember, back in the day, we’d sit on the couch in sunnydale, cooking BBQ and drinking beers before going out for the evening? Besides, shark vs lion, this was one of them: Tiger vs. Croc. Its a movie. And one of them wins.

Atkins didn’t do all his research, its not carbs that are bad — its bread! Don’t wait until this hits the mainstream media, act now. Here is what the man didn’t want you to know, facts about bread:

Research on bread indicates that:

1. More than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread users.
2. Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on standardized tests.
3. In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home, the average life expectancy was less than 50 years; infant mortality rates were unacceptably high; many women died in childbirth; and diseases such as typhoid, yellow fever, and influenza ravaged whole nations.

4. More than 90 percent of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread.
5. Bread is made from a substance called “dough.” It has been proven that as little as one pound of dough can be used to suffocate a mouse. The average American eats more bread than that in one month!

Diabolical!

Having done the research, I can tell you, the sick and twisted internet visitor, that there is currently no more information to be found anywhere on sphincter bleaching other than that which has already been mentioned. Yes, the catchy title (Hey you, yes you, is your sphincter too brown?), subtle bum jokes, obtuse bottom references… it had it all.

Yesterday, 4 people stopped by maxpower to see the post about sphincter bleaching. Today 50 (so far). Some people even came here looking for ‘bleached sphincter pictures’ and ’sphincter bleaching pictures’, (yes pppoe-41-52.lab.csuchico.edu I’m talking about you, freak).

I have one picture, and this is it. Meet Anna Marsiano, owner and manager of The Bees’ Knees beauty salon, sphincter bleacher extrodinare. For about 73 US, she will “Bikini Sculpture and colour” you, whatever that is (sphincter bleaching?).

Other pictures? Well, the don’t exist, we don’t have any, no one does. Besides, what would you be interested in? Before and after pictures of bleached of the sphinters? Freak.

Checkout this dude I saw walking down the street today. Blue shoes with blue socks. Is this the new style or was he cold?
