Tommy Tiernan on Strombo talking about Don Cherry.
Nick Cave has such an awesome voice, as evidenced by his narration of The Cat Piano.
Rick Mercer’s heritage moment on pulling out of Kyoto.
Relatedly, small delays in cutting emissions makes a big difference.
Millie is not the slightest bit surprised that Canada pulled out of Kyoto, unfortunately, but she’s amused that Justin Trudeau is carrying on the family tradition of cussing in the House of Commons. (She also thinks he should be apologizing for his terrible taste in facial hair before he apologizes for swearing at Kent.) Also, Strombo’s debrief on it features Harper with James Dean hair.
This post about a Friday night dance is fantastic.
Yo-Yo Ma on a bathroom floor with a wombat. (Does that sound like a Clue accusation to anyone else?)
“Cat Piano” is such a neat piece…
and that article about doctors was so sad. On the one hand it makes a good case for prioritizing and letting loved ones go, but on the other hand, it makes me think of a family friend who suffered from the effects of Fen Phen for many years. She went through many procedures and treatments, none of which could have been afforded without her husband’s high-paying job, and even though she was not physically at her best, she was an utterly amazing woman who touched many people’s lives during the ten-plus years she supposedly wasn’t going to live through.
I agree. I also found the doctors article very interesting.
