Note: The Mailbag will be up sometime this afternoon. In the meantime, I invite you to peruse this column about personal lubricant and Murder, She Wrote.

The long weekend is over. I am sunburned (thanks to golf) and angry (thanks to golf and also Lost). This is the right frame of mind for a maibag.

Questions welcomed below.

    Feschuk;

    What's the coolest thing that MPs have bought (sorry, 'expensed') with our tax cash that we will never know about? Something pedestrian like a hot tub? Or something exotic, like a Gurkha platoon (cleverly disguised as Mohawk Warriors) to guard the North Shahbucktoh Lieberal constituency office from terrorist attacks by those damn Freemasons?

    Alternatively, is there really any point to camping in a national park on a long weekend if you can't get falling down sloshed?

    Oh, and are you mad about the golfing because you lost a father/son grudge match to Dave? He's such a nice young lad, why be mad at him?

    Dear Scott,

    Do you know what really bugs me. Can I tell you. Can I tell you what drive me nuts. Have you noticed that the new thing is to not put question marks at the end of questions. Isn't it annoying as hell. What's the deal with that anyway. Who started that.

    Yours, etc.

      Agreed but it's the abuse of apostrphes (apostrophe's anyone?) that really tick me off.

    Some brilliant wag (http://technology.canoe.ca/2010/05/25/14085536.html) has created a add-on to your web browser to make Justin Bieber disappear from the Interweb (as far as you can tell).

    Are there other personalities (e.g., Kirsty Ally), products (e.g., Jenny Craig) or concepts (e.g., weigh-loss reality programs) you would include in this amazing black hole?

    Dear Scott,

    You recently called Stephen Harper "Mr. Bubbles" because he is "too chicken to answer the genuine, spontaneous queries of a few wonky kids." Are there any other former PM's with weird and/or shallow personalities that you have any nicknames for?

    Yours,
    MacCross

    The World Cup is coming up. Which team should I pretend to have an affinity for when dealing with colleagues-who-somehow-care-about-soccer?
