This is Prick. Prick is a very fun poodle, but unfortunately, he doesn’t have any friends. |
Prick is unhappy because every time he tries to make a new friend, they end up leaving him. |
Today, Prick is ready to try again. Ready to see if there is anyone out there for him. |
With a spin of his tail, he heads off on his journey in search of a new and exciting friend. |

“Hey, there is General Gord, maybe he will be my friend“, Prick says to himself. |
”Excuse me, but will you be my new friend?“, he asks. |
”Well that depends. Can you ride like the wind on a horse?“, asks General Gord. |
”No, I can’t.“, replies Prick, as General Gord rides off. |

Hey, there is Boris Bear. He looks like fun. |
”Excuse me, but will you be my new friend?“, he asks. |
”Well that depends. Can you cross-country ski?“, asks Boris. |
”No, I can’t.“, replies Prick, as Boris skis away. |

 |
 |
 |
 |

|
”This sucks!“, Prick thinks to himself. ”Time for a break“. |
Just as Prick finishes, Ian Thornley and his pals happen to wonder by. |
”Excuse me, but will you be my new friend?“, Prick asks. |
”No, I can’t.“ responds Prick, and after Big Wreck leaves, Prick becomes very angry. ”Why is this so hard?“, he asks himself. |
|||
 |
 |
 |
 |
|||
|
Just then Tom Tomato rolls by. |
”You seem like a nice enough poodle. Sure I’ll be your friend“, replies Tom. |
”Hurray!“, Prick is so happy to finally have a new friend, that he jumps up on Tom’s face to give him a big doggy lick. |
”NO… STOP…“, screams Tom. ”You’re hurting me!“. |
|||
 |
 |
 |
 |
|||
|
”Please stop! Please“, begs Tom. |
”Oh no, what have I done?“, thinks Prick. He feels sick at the thought of what he had just done to poor Tom. |
”At this rate, I’ll never find a new friend“, he pouts. |
”Excuse me?“, asks Billy Bear from behind him. |
|||
 |
 |
 |
 |
|||
|
”I just packed this lovely tomato picnic and I have no one to share it with. Would you like to join me?“ |
”I would love to“, replies Prick. ”But I would probably end up hurting you.“ |
”Aww, gee…“, replies Billy. ”Say, I think I might have an idea. Let me try something.“ |
”Huh?“ … ”WOW… Thank you so much“, says Prick, as he admires what Billy had done. |
|||
 |
 |
|||||
|
|
”Now I will never hurt anyone ever again. Excuse me, but will you be my new friend?“, Prick asks. |
And with that, Prick and his new friend spent the rest of the day enjoying a wonderful tomato picnic together. |

Oysters, like wine are affected by terroir and these Miyagi’s flavor profiles ranged with one showing a cleaner, almost tropical profile and the other being more salty, marine driven. As I was devouring the seemingly endless plates put in front of us, I sipped on a glass of fine sauvignon blanc.

Invictus
No matter what, the reality of Nelson Mandela is something that deserves screen time. Should this film even remotely intrigue the masses to take interest in this figure, the world would likely benefit greatly from it.
