MC'ed the Halifax premiere of Jackass 2 last night at Empire 17 Bayers Lake. The first Jackass I had viewed as a bit of a guilty pleasure for awhile, and now I'm an unabashed Jackass fan. The second one is a bit more gross, if you can imagine that, but inspired, nonetheless.

Steve-O's ambitious new method to chug a beer should earn him not only an Oscar, but a Nobel Prize. I think I'll start a petition.

A couple years back, Steve-O, Chris Pontius, Wee-Man, and some of the other Jackass mutants came into Q104...

This is about a week after they had pretty much destroyed The Edge in Toronto. F-bombs were dropped, and somebody peed on the control room floor. Seemed like a pretty good idea at the time, I'm sure.

So, after this international scandal, why not get them on the air at Q104...what could possibly go wrong???

Turns out, they were pretty cool dudes, and the whole problem in Toronto stemmed from the fact that they were treated like assholes. We were nice to them (true Maritimers!), and the whole thing went without incident. A couple of times Wee-Man asked me if Q had a seven-second delay (we don't), and I think I gently moved on to another topic. I was having visions of being the Drive-thru attendant with the best voice in Metro, so it was best to stay away from that hornet's nest.

I learned three things that day...don't judge a book by it's cover, treat people with respect, and they'll do likewise, and lastly, and most importantly...I look really shitty in a green sweater.
