Barry Penner doesn’t just love oversized novelty cheques, he’s also bonkers over oversized novelty pamphlets. The only hard part is finding windshield wipers big enough to hold them down.

Metro could also consider sending the region’s waste to a proposed incinerator at Gold River on Vancouver Island, he said.

“Those opportunities are right there,” Penner said. “Those are two alternatives I’m aware of besides exporting garbage to the United States.

“It makes sense to deal with our environmental problems here in B.C., rather than exporting our problems to somewhere else.” – Vancouver Sun

Where some people see festering piles of putrid trash, Barry Penner sees opportunity! He’s awesome that way (though admittedly a bit smelly – not that you’d want to say that to his face).

conanArnold Schwarzenegger doesn’t keep his old Conan sword around out of a sense of nostalgia or a hope to rekindle his acting career after he tires of  this governor thing. No, he keeps weapons close at hand just in case Barry Penner ever comes back.

BigChequeNow THAT’s a classy oversized novelty cheque. It seems the BC governement splurged for the ‘use your own photo’ line of oversized novelty chequebooks. Wow. You could hang that sucker in a gallery as art and charge people to see it.

Barry Penner’s signature just makes it all the more valuable (about nine million dollars more, to be precise).

Gangsta

It may appear like Barry Penner is giving an enthusiastic Thumbs Up of Approval (and half a million dollars) to generic businessmen and old-timey gangsters, but in actuality, he’s giving the Thumbs Up of Approval to the Generic Businessmen and Old-Timey Gangster Reenactment Society. They return the sentiment (but keep the money).

(In case you were wondering, members of the Generic Businessmen and Old-Timey Gangster Reenactment Society reenact being either generic businessmen or old-timey gangsters. It’s pretty fun stuff!)
