"You Would Not Believe How Far Away The Door Was"

      For my fellow Hosers, all of whom I'm sure found the recent negotiations over health-care as bewildering and nonsensical as a David Lynch movie or a Britney Spears life-decision, Paul Wells offers a new way of looking at the insulting-cum-absurd-cum-bathetic spectacle.   Oh, Mr. Martin.... And thanks for the "asymmetrical federalism," an idea that will soon blow up in our collective faces like a gunpowder birthday cake better-suited to an Itchy and Scratchy cartoon.   Welcome to Runnymede.   (Cue Homer Simpson: Mmmmm..... Runny mead....)

      And before any of you bother saying that "hehe, you wrote cum-bath," I know, I know, I know.... D'Oh!  

      Whoa, this blog really is indulging in Canadian Content today, isn't it?   Well, that's a good thing sometimes.   Especially since this blog is rather proud to be Canadian right now.   Why?   Well, here's ONE good reason.   Unnn-huh....   (You've got the right one, bay-bays....)  

      By the way, for those Star Wars nuts, one theorist has posited a Canuckistani connection to the film, though it's certainly what Huck Finn would have called a "stretcher." Make of it what you will.

      Okay, have I now blogged enough stuff for everyone for today? Now go listen to some Leonard Cohen-- or, better yet, go read him. Cheers.
