C'est une beauté de chemin à faire, hein?

So, good day, and welcome to the Bob and Doug McKenzie FPP. How's it goin' eh? Like, I've got some back bacon fryin' up on the Coleman, a dozen donuts, a two-four, and our topic today is stuff on the internet relating to these two Canadian hoseheads. So, like, sit back, put a toque on, grab a beer, and enjoy! The internet is like having a VCR that plays anything you want! Here, for example, are a whole cooler full of ice cold McKenzie Brothers "Great White North" skits from the SCTV days, back where it all started, eh. Their topics include: - New Boots - Beer Nog - Using Calculators in School - How to roll your own while wearing ski mitts - Microwave Ovens - Short Cuts - Flats - Separatism: the problem of the French from the point of view of back bacon and beer - The Great White North - Space Shuttle Arm, and Snow Routes OK, beauty, eh? Next, we have the Album part of the FPP. Here are the hit videos, made by me. (They were not, eh? Take Off!) And (zoom in on me), psst, here's the real beauty part of the FPP, eh? Don't tell anyone, but some hoser left copies of the whole Great White North album lying around for you to download, along with the time they hosted a radio show. (Downloading is like, taking a dump, but, like, in reverse, eh?) And this guy has more stuff than you can shake a hockey stick at, eh? (OK, zoom out now.) So, like, you can make their theme song your ring-tone. You'll also find in there the soundtrack to their feature film... Strange Brew! Like, I didn't realize this, because I failed my grade 6, that Strange Brew is like, a rip-off of Hamlet. It even has a movie-within-a-movie. OK! Also, the movie has a really good villain. Here's the trailer. The youtubes I found of the movie were all messed up, and made Bob's voice sound like it was coming from Doug or vice versa (the other way around, eh?), so just, like, skip those. And the tapes this guy left lying around don't fit into my internet VCR. You can try'em, maybe they'll work for you. Here are the brothers reviewing their movie on Sneak Previews -- that was on Public TV in the lower half of North America. (It had the Ernie and Bert guys before they were famous. Geez, what Americans find educational, eh?) So when Bob and Doug got to be, like, stars and real famous and everything, they even got a piece on the CBC news! Here's a feature of them, and two hosers that look like them, and it also shows the "International Hoser Day Parade," which may or may not really have happened. (The internet, like, brings things to you, but it also takes them away, eh?) So, what are Bob and Doug doing today? One cartoon says they've been reincarnated as moose. This cartoon (from 10:50 to the end) says they're garbagemen, but it also points to their secret identity as corporate spokesmodels! And some guy who looks like their dad is talking about them. But really, we all know in our hearts, they're still sitting around, hanging out with buddies, and drinking stubbies. So, like, that's the end of the FPP, so, good day, eh?
