Now It's Startin' To Feel Like A Real Cold War!

'Defection' is such a cool word. [Link]

The Frontier Centre held a dinner with Christopher Hitchens last year and during the Q&A, I asked Hitch the only foreign policy question not related to Iraq:

"What's going to happen with China?" paraphrasing myself.

"Nothing good," paraphrasing the man. I agree. Unfortunately.



PS: Have I mentioned Monday yet? Be sure to tune in around lunchtime.

There Are Those Who Say The First Step Of Travel Is Always The Most Difficult.....

....They might be right.

However, I'm leaning towards Step Twenty myself. [Link]

PS: I'm looking forward to the live blogging over the Monday lunch hour.

Honestly, What's The Fuss?

When I worked at the Manitoba Ledge....Taping NDP scrums was an active practice. That way you had instant access when someone said something foolish. (Right, Labour Minister Nancy Allan?)

PS: Remember, Monday afternoon around lunch will be the first live-blogging event in a long time. Should be fun.

Blogging Is A Hobby Of Habit....I'm Just Out Of Practice

Going to try and get back into it again. Starting with my first "live-blogging" experience in months and months next Monday afternoon. Tune in.

Oh Yeah...Why I Haven't Been Active Lately...

Cranky and pissy right now at many things politics. There's some good stuff worth chatting about, be them Crocus fallout, Gary Doer's likely lament that he didn't call an election last month, the federal numbers, the Quebec numbers, the Quebec election in general (pay attention to it...it could lead somewhere interesting), musings on Ryan Craig's departure from Winnipeg City Hall, musings on Chantal Hebert's new book, musings on the greatness that is NBC's two hour comedy block, musings on nothing in particular.

But like I said, bored and grouchy. Plus work's still heavy going and not slowing down. Luckily, they gave me a raise to compensate.

I'll eventually get back up to speed again. Just no idea how long it'll be until then. (And I must get rid of this template. Hate it!)

Your Marketing Play Of The Day

I would not want to be working at a Rogers or Blockbuster when Borat arrives. [Link]
