Smak means taste.19 June 2004 - 5:47 p.m. "Why on earth would you do that to yourselves? Why would you want a society that looked like ours? What do you think is so remarkable about the way that we've structured our society, where we have a growing gap between rich and poor, where we have 40 million adult Americans who are functional illiterates because of our educational system? Why would you want to live in more fear as violence and crime increases? That to me makes absolutely no sense. It's like taking a piss on yourself. Why would you want to do that?" -Michael Moore, talking to Canadians. Gaawwwd. I spend hours and hours every week listening to random Canadians go one about politics at work, and I'm not allowed to say anything to them. (Even to the woman I was speaking with today who said she would vote for the Conservatives, then told me she wasn't aware of what their position on abortion and same-sex marriage was). Don't they know that the Liberals are the lesser of the two evils? How can people actually vote for the Conservatives? Damn West Coast... I haven't been up to much recently, hmm... saw Scott and Steph a few times this week, mostly for lunches. Have eaten much gelato and listened to much Gomez. Also had quite the fun trip to the Polish deli (lots of revisiting the childhood) and Swiss Pastries with Nat. |
