GerPol: The remark about Mr. Chretien was mine. The intent was to point out that unlike pretty-much every PM before, Mr. Day doesn't have any physical features that cartoonists can make fun of. (Perish the thought.)

Indeed, Mr. Chretien does the best that he can with his impairment (hearing impairment, isn't it?). However, it still looks corny. But I give him credit for keeping in physical shape.

And there was Mr. Mulroney. Huge chin. The political cartoonists had a field day with that.

And there is Mr. Clark. His double chin looks bigger every day (maybe he is storing food for when he faces the fact that he is out of a job - he might have to hibernate until the Conservatives regain power).

As for the dead poets society, I really liked the show when it came out. I thought I would like it for a long, long time. Now that I am older and have been through more "life", I see it as bordering adolescent. Have I grown up? I guess I outgrew that show.

I'm a bit of a commi (oops) definitely a socialist, naturalist, nationalist, centralist, absolutely a liberal, positively an NDPer

Sounds like you are very confused. <ggg>

Luv my socialized medicine that saved my life twice.

You know what saved my life when I was 18? Not the family doctor that I went to four times and said it was a virus, not the specialist who examined me and said it was probably something to do with my reproductive system (which would pass), but my DAD: Suffering from a temperature of 103, vomiting or shitting out everything I consumed, pain in my abdomen that had me in tears, after 10 days of that, my Dad said, "That's it, you are going to the hospital until they figure out what's wrong." (I had appendicitis, and had been suffering from it for 10 days. So much for good medicine...)

...been called an a$$ hole

That's okay. I won't hold it against you. <ggg>

I think bigger government is better.

You've never been self-employed, I suspect.

The Olympics is a corporate scam. All CEO's, athletes, movie actors and any one else making over a MM bucks should be lined up on the edge of lake Michigan and told to walk to the other side, if they make it their salaries should be doubled!.

Definitely a frigging waste of money. However, we should double their salaries if THEY DON'T MAKE IT ACROSS! (Worked for witches. If they floated, they were witches - which meant the community could have roast witch - parental supervision advised. If they drowned, it meant they killed an innocent person. Oops.)

Stock definitely goofed the other day when he said just like Lake Erie flows from north to south, so too does Canada's best. Unfortunately, Lake Erie flows from south to north. Who knew?!!!

I waited until I was forty to join a political party. And it was earlier this year - I became a Reform member so I could vote in favor of forming the Alliance. Some good things take time. :-)
