John Les brings a cardboard cutout of El Gordo along with him for all public appearances. When he needs the big guns, he also pulls out the Thumbs Up of Approval-sporting Barry Penner cutout. When that thing is set up, it’s like John Les doesn’t even have to be there!

Barry Penner gives the Thumbs Up of Approval to this astounding piece of automotive engineering.

John Les wonders which part makes the “Vroom-Vroom” sound.

Barry Penner gives the Thumbs Up Of Approval (or the ‘Thumbs Up’ Of Approval, as it seems) to the Agassiz Fall Fair, fields, tractors, and plowing! He’s also really impressed that it’s the 103rd Fall Fair. He had this thing pegged to fizzle out somewhere around 102. Still, he’s happy to be wrong if it means he gets to ride his tractor around again!

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!)

Why did you think he cleans the rivers?

Barry Penner gives the Thumbs Up of Approval to University Colleges, garish automobiles, and oversized (yet tasteful) novelty cheques. What’s not to love?

Barry Penner gives his coveted Thumbs Up of Approval to both motorcycles and charity work simultaneously. His Chilli-buddy John Les tries to do the same, but doesn’t pull it off nearly as well. Keep trying, Les. You’ll get there some day.
