to talk or to shutup

Ann Coulture: your recent showdown in Canada has made our multicultural hearts flutter. Aside from the Olympics, which feels like a fragmented and removed moment in Canadian history, you have been the most entertainment in a long long long while. I also think you are a good way to begin this whole thing that I whimsically call "Kraft Dinner and Green Peas".

Just a short word on March 23rd's "Tuesday Morning After Show" that airs on CKUT, 90.3FM. A good reminder is that top/down lectures/essays/midterms/finals do not = life. This is a deserved reminder provided by Professor Norman Cornett, subject of Alanis Obomsawin's latest film "Professor Norman Cornett: Since when do we divorce the right answer from an honest answer?". He also helps to keep us master procrastinator's in check.
I am undecided whether or not I believe in the system of learning that I have wrapped my life around but I'm not quite sure depending on a regime that is based upon pure acceptance and self-reflection will help me to prepare for the "real world" where rejection is at every corner.

Anyways...
