Thanks! ____________________________________________________________________________ This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --Boundary_(ID_WqorTpvA5mmXdJel5HPZBA) Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT In a desperate effort to make sure that nobody gets any work done whatsoever, and to raise some money for a hard-working conservation group, the people that brought you Spam, N-SYNC, and Online College Degrees are proud to present the NO-TALENT TALENT SHOW PART DEUX!!! If you love humiliating yourself and laughing at the inadequacies of others in front of a complete group of strangers then this Gong-show is for you! The SECOND EVER No-Talent Talent Show wants you to showcase your special shortcomings in front of an equally inept audience, at the Dalhousie University Grad House, on Nov 4th 2003. There will be laughter, tears, groans and beers as you watch your friends bungle their way through this drunken half-baked cirque de soleil. The rules are simple: YOU MUST NOT BE TALENTED AT ANYTHING YOU PERFORM. Choose something that you have always wanted to try, and then one week before the event, begin to practice like mad. It must be STRESSED that you must present something that you have never really attempted before, and it cannot be an offshoot of some previously practiced talent - a bluegrass champion will not be allowed to air guitar nor will a knife thrower be permitted to do toss. well anything. Last year we had some of the most supreme useless rubbish the east coast has ever seen. All those that witnessed Mystico's Teddy Bear Stand Balancing act, the Ozzie puppet show, or the Lost Sock Fairy can attest to the pure unadulterated horror of the evening. To give you examples of the "talent" lined-up so far, we have already secured a barbershop quartet, a one-man jug band and some guy that talks to God to star in this event. These fine individuals will gain the respect and admiration of their peers and win really horrible prizes as they compete to be the no-talent talent queen. WE WANT YOU TO: freestyle rap, shotgun beer, imitate both terrestrial and aquatic animals, juggle semi-dangerous objects, burp the alphabet, ride a unicycle, perform rollerblade icecapades, play O Canada on the sitar or attempt whatever other zany antics you wish to bring to the talent table. Special consideration will be given for creativity and the complete and utter uselessness of talent. So come one, come all and perform your worst! Celebrate the finest of human limitations! Door cover will be a shocking 3 dollars with all proceeds donated to the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society-Nova Scotia to help save the planet from the ever-so-talented human race. --Boundary_(ID_WqorTpvA5mmXdJel5HPZBA) Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2800.1106" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>In a desperate effort to make sure that nobody gets any work done whatsoever, and to raise some money for a hard-working conservation group, the people that brought you Spam, N-SYNC, and Online College Degrees are proud to present the NO-TALENT TALENT SHOW PART DEUX!!!</FONT></FONT></DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT><BR>If you love humiliating yourself and laughing at the inadequacies of others in front of a complete group of strangers then this Gong-show is for you!<BR><BR>The SECOND EVER No-Talent Talent Show wants you to showcase your special shortcomings in front of an equally inept audience, at the Dalhousie University Grad House, on Nov 4th 2003.
