Quebec comedy duo prank call Palin JESSICA MURPHY The Canadian Press November 1, 2008 at 5:56 PM EDT MONTREAL — In an over-the-top accent, one half of a notorious Quebec comedy duo claims to be the president of France as he describes sex with his famous wife, the joy of killing animals and Hustler magazine's latest Sarah Palin porno spoof. At the other end of the line? An oblivious Sarah Palin. The Masked Avengers, a radio pairing notorious for prank calls to celebrities and heads of state, notched its latest victory Saturday when it released a recording of a six-minute call with Ms. Palin, who thought she was talking with Nicolas Sarkozy. Throughout the call, which was making the rounds in U.S. political circles by day's end Saturday, Ms. Palin and the pranksters discuss politics, pundits, and the perils of going hunting with Vice-President Dick Cheney. “We have such great respect for you, John McCain and I, we love you,” Ms. Palin gushes, evidently unaware she's speaking to an infamous Quebec comedian named Marc-Antoine Audette. At one point, Ms. Palin even comes close to confirming her intention to one day run for president, when Mr. Audette slyly remarks he can see her taking over the big desk in the Oval office. “Maybe in eight years,” she replies with a nervous chuckle. Over the course of the interview, Ms. Palin doesn't seem to realize she's being tricked until Mr. Audette comes clean near the end of the call. “Ohhhh . . . have we been pranked?” she says. Seconds later, Ms. Palin's aide can be heard taking the phone before the line goes dead. Throughout the conversation, Mr. Audette drops plenty of clues that something's amiss. He identifies French singer and actor Johnny Hallyday as his special adviser to the U.S., singer Stef Carse as Canada's prime minister and Quebec comedian and radio host Richard Z. Sirois as the provincial premier. “We should go hunting together,” Ms. Palin offers when Mr. Audette professes a love of hunting — or, more precisely, killing animals. “We can have a lot of fun together while we're getting work done. We could kill two birds with one stone.” Mr. Audette then jokes that they shouldn't bring Mr. Cheney on the hunt, referring to the 2006 incident in which the vice-president shot and injured a friend while hunting quail. “I'll be a careful shot,” responds Ms. Palin, who praises Mr. Sarkozy throughout the call. “I look forward to working with you and getting to meet you personally — and your beautiful wife, oh my goodness,” she says. “You've added a lot of energy to your country with that beautiful family of yours.” Mr. Audette then tells her his wife, Carla Bruni, a singer and former model, was jealous to hear Mr. Sarkozy would be speaking to Ms. Palin. “Give her a big hug for me,” Ms. Palin responds. Mr. Audette goes on to describe Ms. Bruni as “hot in bed” and claims she's written a song for Ms. Palin, the French title of which translates as “Lipstick on a Pig.” In English, Mr. Audette says the song is about Joe the Plumber. Finally, he mentions a notorious Hustler video titled “Nailin' Paylin,” describing it as “the documentary they made on your life.” “Oh, good, thank you, yes,” Ms. Palin replies. “That was really edgy,” Mr. Audette says. “Well, good.” In an interview Saturday, Mr. Audette told The Canadian Press it wasn't easy setting up the interview with Republican presidential candidate John McCain's running mate, and described the accomplishment as the pair's biggest triumph to date. “It really took a lot of work,” he said. “We had to go through the Secret Service, the people in her entourage. It's the biggest coup so far. We're proud to add (this prank) to our top hits.” It took the pair, known for securing surreptitious interviews with celebrities, politicians and heads of state, five days to set up the call, Mr. Audette said. The secret to getting powerful people on the line? Time and persistence. “I wanted to see how (Ms. Palin) was on an intellectual level,” Mr. Audette said, comparing the latest prank to the duo's crank call with pop idol Britney Spears. “You can see that she's, well, not really brilliant.” In a statement Saturday, Ms. Palin's team said the vice-presidential nominee was “mildly amused” to learn she was the victim of a prank. “Gov. Palin was mildly amused to learn that she had joined the ranks of heads of state, including President Sarkozy, and other celebrities in being targeted by these pranksters,” said spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt. “C'est la vie.” Mr. Audette, too, was contrite afterward. “I hope we won't have a one-way ticket to Guantanamo Bay.” The well-known radio prankster duo of Mr. Audette and Sebastien Trudel have most recently tricked Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger. Other celebrity victims include Ms. Spears and Bill Gates. In 2007, they conned Mr. Sarkozy himself by impersonating Prime Minister Stephen Harper. And their 2006 call to former French president Jacques Chirac was rated by the BBC as one of the top 30 all-time best moments in radio history. Known as the “Masked Avengers,” they've been popular on the Quebec comedy scene for a decade.

Listen to the audio

Let this serve as a warning that not all photoshop work is desirable...

Well, i did my part to offset that Singin: "Yaaa-ooohhh Blue!"

Burn 'n turn, Baby (need a couple months lag time)

Yeah, considering where you are, I bet it WAS exciting. From over here, it was a real yawner.

Yeah. It's definitely Courage praying to the Leavenworth Climbing Guide Author's God for inclusion.

One of the worst World Series ever.

Wow. two decent boulder problems...is that the best you could come up with. Hater? Yeah. I lost 30 pounds when I left the wet world of the 'Ham. The nearest decent gym is Seattle or Vancouver.. Oh, and when do you get to climb these problems? 3 months out of the year when you should be enjoying other areas? I mean, the place is surrounded by trees and moss, and rains 8 months out of the year. "overgrown" - what do you expect?

Looks like Bill beat me to the punch by 1/2 hour...

This is funny stuff! Dear Red States: We've decided we're leaving. We intend to form our own country, and we're taking all the Blue States with us. In case you aren't aware, that includes California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and all the Northeast. We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation, and especially to the people of the new country the United States of Enlightenment. To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states. We get stem cell research and the best beaches. We get the Statue of Liberty. You get Dollywood. We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom. We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss. We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get Alabama. We get two-thirds of the tax revenue, you get to make the red states pay their fair share. Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower than the Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families. You get a bunch of single moms. Please be aware that we will be pro-choice and anti-war, and we're going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at once. If you need people to fight, ask your evangelicals. They have kids they're apparently willing to send to their deaths for no purpose, and they don't care if you don't show pictures of their children's caskets coming home. We do wish you success in Iraq , and hope that the WMDs turn up, but we're not willing to spend our resources in Bush's Quagmire. With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80 percent of the country's fresh water, more than 90 percent of the pineapple and lettuce, 92 percent of the nation's fresh fruit, 95 percent of America's quality wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners) 90 percent of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools plus Berkeley, Stanford , Cal Tech and MIT. With the Red States, on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88 percent of all obese Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92 percent of all U.S. mosquitoes, nearly 100 percent of the tornadoes, 90 percent of the hurricanes, 99 percent of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100 percent of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia. We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you. Additionally, 38 percent of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62 percent believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44 percent say that evolution is only a theory, 53 percent that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and 61 percent of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals then we lefties. Finally, we're taking the good pot, too. You can have that dirt weed they grow in Mexico Peace out, Blue States

I want a girl that has a table of full beer steins on each hip! ...

Being his usual, understated self, Chaoda Boy minces his words. Folks, this place blows hard, it is irretrievably lame, it is laughable to even call this place a bouldering area. It is only due to the immense amount of male hormones running rampant through the campus that there is even chalk on this heap. Further, it is blasphemous to the climbing community to even go here with the intent to climb. You belittle yourself, showing your mad, gnashing angst for "real" rock to even touch this crumbling choss with a chalked hand.

One word: headphones!

Yeah, Buddy! Miss ya! Erik

nobody likes a copycat meow

Migratory Beasts turn it up!

Dag nab it anyway! [img:center]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f197/BWeyer/old-guy.jpg[/img]
