The Canadian International AutoShow

Ah yes the CIAS ... not only is it North America's largest car expo... Larger than Detroit (humm which is where all the good shit end up going... ) 850,000 sq ft...that's quite a bit of area to cover walking to see the 42 car exhibitors... welll chk out www.autoshow.ca for details... as for me ..lemme say i needed the day off to feel good abt myself... and this surely was a great way to do it ... it was rather chilly thru the latter part of the day ..but nonetheless a terrific experience.. now what did i oggle over... hummm ... i got to sit in the new Mustangs ... the new Mercedes S, E, C Class... the smart Car... well we dont wanna take time out to talk abt all the hondas and toyotas and fords and pontiacs i sat now do we... I got my customized version of the dodge magnum commercial made... u can chk it out on

The cars to oggle over were the lamborginis ..they had 3 of em .. the ferraris ..they had 4 of em... they had 2 aston martins... 2 bentleys ....the classic car section was beautiful .....the bikes were great too... the ducatis..the harleys...

well as for cars to watch out for ..... lemme give u my two cents abt concept cars... looks like every designer out there goes to the same design school ...or uses the same software to design the cars ... coz goddamit.. they all look the same sans the minor differences like perhaps a logo maybe... sheesh... the lincoln aviator concept model and the lexus concept car looked like they were fraternal twins... not that they werent breath taking... but u want a lil variety ... it's like u walk into a jap restraunt expecting a kimono clad yellow female with a funny accent asking u if u want to try sushi... and u walk into a southern ranch expecting a blonde in flannels trying to coax u into getting honey garlic ribs ...

i think toyota's going to be serious competition with their FX cruiser for the Hummer H3... both of em looking pretty much the same .. the H3 is a poor man's hummer..no it's the danny de vito/joe pesci of hummers.... u wanna laugh at it ... then u think it might turn around and say something like "u think i'm funny"....

it was a good experience ... had my arse enjoy the comfort of the leather interiors of BMWs, Mercedes, Lexus, Audis, Jaguars, u name it ..my arse was loving it .. my nose couldnt stop thanking me ..each time i gorged in the new car smell ... lousy part was from ten thirty in the morning to 5 thrity in the evening as i straddled around from car to car ...i tried honking every one of those cars to find each and every one of em was disengaged... not even one that wasnt...

Like every Papillion.. has a Dustin Hoffman that out does the Steve McQueen ... my Dustin Hoffman was the CN Tower.. I get to Toronto a wee bit early.. i was expecting a huge line up for the tickets ... but i had acquired one with adequate ease ..and had loads of time to spare... so as i walk past the "Caution: Falling Ice at the Convention Centre" (sidetrack... have u thought what a freaking icicle from that height could do to u ... holy fuck... i didnt realize that until i was there...).. find a cpl of guys walking around as aim lessly as i was... they ask me are u here for the job fair... so i said yeah.... it starts a 9 so i hear.. and hey it was 8:30... i could kill some time.. and i thought there mught be some companys having their stalls setup and i walk around grab a pen or two and get the hell out there... lil did i know in the next 20 minutes there were close to 45 ppl there with resumes et al... humm ... nine comes rolling by ... i hop jump and skip in to the CN tower... and there's a questionnaire to fill out... after the elaborate screening of course... and then i see what's happening...they seem to be having a job fair for the positions at the CN tower... COOL!!! along comes a chick who gives us the ... hi there everybody ..thanks for coming to the job fair.. as a token of appreciation u get a complimentary pass to go thru the CN tower .. all day today... (now that's a sweet deal... it's like $35 something otherwise... ) so i see the questionnarie usual..facts and figures stuff.. and then i look at who they are hiring .. its for the 360 restraunt... didnt interest me... then there was a retail sales associate position... thought hey..yeah might as well... filled in my sheet... they ask me to proceed to the 360 restraunt for the interview... i mean ... WOW!! hey if u ever have a job interview... this one is the icing on the cake... on top of the CN tower.. it doesnt get better than this... so i have this guy call me over... we start our lil conversation ... and did i have this guy wrapped around me...i'm getting good at the fine art of bullshitting i must say..coz by the end of it .. the guy wasnt just impressed..but he couldnt hide it ...his poker face decimated... and i asked him off the record what were the odds... he said there were 15 positions.. 20 candidates yesterday.. but i was by far the best candidate he had interviewed...asked me to partake on some breakfast served in the lounge as my interview scores are tallied up ... and i wait hit on this cute chick sitting next to me ...nonchalantly talking to her abt the job description... [she actually wanted the job.. wasnt a con like me.]... Any way they call me in after a while... i have to go next saturday for an interview with the sales manager of the CN tower.. there's a speech and stuff i have to prepare it seems... i'm going do it just for shits and giggles...
