Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

I wold like to point out that Canada.com is not the official website of Canada

The article said that some Canadian would point that out.

Well, it's been bought by the Aspers, who are big Liberals, I think.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

If it helps it make any more sense, nutrition is going to be the big theme of the season this year on SS. And I think the target audience is the kids whose parents aren't paying so much attention as 'ista parents to what their kids eat.

Not that I'm thrilled with most of the changes (I can really respect the Snuffy one, even if there's less romance), either. Frakking Elmo, particularly.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Who are the Aspers, and how much did they pay to buy Canada?

I've never actually seen Elmo on SS. Why does he suck?

Oh, is that right? I guess I still have that knee-jerk Conrad Black reaction when I see National Post.

Elmo has become more or less the main character on Sesame Street (which used to be Big Bird). At the very least, he's the one with all the merchandise.

The problem with Elmo, imo, is that he's 3. He talks and acts like a 3-year-old, whereas almost all the other characters (with the exception of Zoe, who's about the same age), are significantly older, and thus less with the crazy-making for grown-ups. At the same time, I've always been a fan of "Kids will learn to talk like adults best if they're exposed to people talking like adults". And Elmo so doesn't.

I can't even.

Yep, and it proceeded to call the website "official" anyway. The National Post doesn't speak for me.

Looks like they've got us over the barrell on this one...

Also? Can spell barrel.

Perhaps someone should mention Canadian oil fields to Bush?
