Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One Before. No, Seriously, Stop Me Razorblade – The Strokes I spoke in a class for the first time in months. It was in 20th Century Canadian Literature and I was commenting on how humour is used to debunk Native American myths. It felt good. The bigger challenge would

Normally I might have thrown in a post or two to keep the site updated, but since Sheep covered me with some links and Big AL strung together two straight, I’ve been able to hang back and charge my super meter for an entire week. And now it’s time for my quarter circle forward, quarter
