Hudson, You've done it again!

What, Joey, two blog posts in less than a week - what happened? I tell you all that if life throws stuff to write about at me, then without hesitation I shall write about it. So here goes... Last night marked my return to Hudson (great little mostly Anglophone community west of Montreal) for their annual fundraising dinner and comedy night. Let me start with the dinner. It was a pasta, salad dinner made and served by members of the Surete Du Quebec police force (SQ). I will say this if you are going to have an english crowd, followed by an english only comedy show - you may want to have officers that speak English and have a sense of humour in attendance. I do know where they got the vegetables for the salad - just a guess but possibly in the garden that is growing up their very tight, clenched butt hole region. Why does the SQ have the reputation it has, I'm not sure - but I got an up close idea last night at the laughter and enjoyment they were having at this event. Yet another reason to be proud of my "home" province. Having done shows for other police brotherhoods across Canada or where they were present I know they are good people that are able to laugh and take a joke - clearly the SQ hasn't gotten to that chapter in their training. By the way if they read this and I go missing, please do not contact your local branch of the SQ to find me - call Mac Taylor, Horatio or any one else that can solve the case in an hour or less, thanks. As for the show - I have always done well in Hudson, and have always threatened to move there one day. My mentor and good friend, David John McCarthey hosted. Comedy bookers, club owners and fans listen up - although DJ may not perform as much as he has in the past (mostly because of writing committments) he is still one of, if not the best MC - sharp as a tack. You think Mario Lemieux was good in his first game after his layoff - pshaw! McCarthey put Mario to shame last night. I will work anytime, anywhere with Mr. McCarthey and it's a shame people in Montreal don't take note of that. While we are at it I will also play golf or hockey with Mr. Lemieux anywhere, anytime - just in case someone out there can make that happen. Ali Hassan opened the show and as per his usual self - hit it out of the park. Thank you to Mike Klaiman and his staff at the city of Hudson and all those in attendance and to the kindness of the staff of Cunnigham's Pub. Hudson it is official I like you. I hope to see you all soon, probably at the Annual City of Hudson Golf Tournament in September 2010. Until then, to all Hudsonites and everyone else Keep laughing
