    Alberta is only a border away from Unabomber country.

    Well, now we know what that wacky former Premier of Alberta. Ralph Klein has been up to since he retired back in '06

    In a country where our politicians (except for the Newfies) are notoriously bland, Klein, an ex-newspaper guy was one of Canada's true characters and in the spirit of Sir John A, a notorious drunk.

    One of our reporters got a call from a guy who must have reading this. Besides Hillary being the man, it claims that George W. Bush and his mother were arrested in 1955 in Saskatchewan by a group of Royal Canadian police that included Steve Forbes, Pat Buchannan and Rupert Murdoch, that a guy who would later be known as Jim Jones was also arrested that day, that Al Gore is Jim Jones' son and, if I heard right, Bono was Jim Jones' driver. And, of course, our paper was insulting the children of the world by ignoring this story that every newspaper and military operation in the country knows is true.

    For those of you who chucked it, it's probably funnier to hear it being read on voice mail.

    It's a Rick Mercer job.

    God bless, Ralph. They maintain an honorary Klein stool at the end of the bar at Honey's!

    You know how the Americans talked about voting for Bush because he's a "guy you'd like to have a beer with"?

    I bet Klein has had at least one beer with everyone in Alberta.

    Well, if anyone actually has it and can fax it to me, I'd love to read it. PM me and I'll give you my fax number.
