John Gormly deserves this:

Yep! He really said that.

For the record, I have not listened to even one nanosecond of Mr. Gormly's radio show.  Most of the radio I've listened to these days is Ballsy on The Wolf ranting about whatever crawled up his ass that day.  I'm also forced to intermittently hear CBC radio at my job but that's because I work with a bizarre little man.  So, as a result of that, I am not entirely familiar with how John Gormly conducts his show.  What I do know is that when I heard about that asinine thing he said directed at Muslims, I felt divinely inspired to make the comic you see above.  I know I'm not really "striking while the iron is hot" since he said this more than 2 weeks ago, but I felt it had to be done nonetheless.

I would also like to add that drawing him was a rather nauseating experience.  He looks like the 'love child' created by Rush Limbaugh and a salamander he met in Saskatchewan as he was travelling from Winnipeg to Vancouver in his double-wide Winnebago.  He's got a reptilian-ish presence is what I'm saying.

See?  Doesn't he look as though his diet consists of crickets and algae?

Anyway, that's it. John Gormly put his foot in his mouth and I wanted to have some fun pouring mustard on it, which I did.

Everyone can now go back to 'booking faces' or 'crushing candies' etc.

Another Radio Broadcast

Last year, I talked about Jesus Needs Help on CKDU with Stephen Patrick Clare.  This year, I will be on Blog Talk Radio with Etienne  A. Gibbs.  There's a link to it already: click right here.  On Tuesday, June 12 at 11:00 am Central Time, Etienne and I will be streaming live right on that site.  Soon afterwards, that broadcast will be available on iTunes.  Oh, by the way, it's also a call in show.  If you want to ask me any questions about my book, you can do so by phoning this number: 347-943-0090

Here's hoping I manage to answer any questions (the collective) you or anyone else has about my book.  Please tune in to hear how well I did.

UPDATE!!!

There were technical difficulties with the show.  I have been rescheduled for June 27 at 10 : 00 a.m. Central time.  Please tune in and enjoy a lively interview.

On the air live in 3, 2, 1...

Exactly two weeks from today, I will be broadcasting live on the radio. The good people at station CKDU 88.1 FM in Halifax Nova Scotia have graciously allowed me to go on their station to promote my book Jesus Needs Help. I'll be on a program called The Book Club on June 14 at 1:30 pm Atlantic Standard Time until 2:30 pm. The host is one Stephen Clare, a very articulate young man who will no doubt ask me the hard questions to make me sweat a little but yet still keep things nice and friendly. If your radio is strong enough to pick up that station's frequency, definitely feel free to listen in. If you can't pick up the signal in your area, not to worry. The show will be available for podcast immediately afterwards. Just search the CKDU website through the archives, you're sure to find it.




Some of you may have noticed that I haven't been advertising my book here or anywhere else in the passed few months. That's mostly because I've been kept busy with something else, mainly helping my sister out by babysitting her kids / my nephews every day since mid April.

That's them. Their names are Michael and Gabriel. Couldn't you just stuff them into an over-the-shoulder tote bag and feed them pellets? (I may do that with them on Thursday). That's what's been occupying my time as of late. I've hardly had any time for much else. That should change in a few weeks when I'll be back home and able to concentrate on things better. Who knows how I'll be promoting my book in the next few months. Maybe one of you good folks reading this blog post have a suggestion (Just keep it clean and try not to use too many synonyms for guano).

Final reminder: Listen for David Germain on the radio sitting down with Stephen Clare to discuss the book Jesus Needs Help on The Book Club on station 88.1 FM CKDU on Tuesday, June 14, 2011 starting at 1:30 pm Atlantic Standard Time. If you miss it, kick yourself in the shins really hard.

I almost forgot, fellow babies, "BOOGERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! "

Another update: There's been some more rescheduling at the station. Now I'll be on the show July 19. Remember, that's CKDU 88.1 FM in Halifax on July 19 from 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.
