(It's Toronto, though.)

I can't keep track of Canadian cities!

Toronto - like Manhattan in the midwest. Across the lake from Detroit.

Montreal - French! Bagels!

Vancouver - the Portland of the north.

Calgary - Stampede!

Winnipeg - Guy Maddin! The Jets! A two year run of Phantom of the Paradise!

Ugh, JZ. I'm sorry you had such a bad experience. I hope the Newman Center can fill the gap, and leave a better taste in your mouth.

Oh, JZ, I know how much you loved your parish -- this has got to be such a blow.

How awful JZ. I'm so sorry that the community you have counted on is letting you down in this way.

I'm so sorry JZ. I know how hard this must be for you, but maybe Newman Center is the better option. (As an aside, I didn't realize that was a thing - there was a Newman Center down the block from our house in Milwaukee.)

I can't keep track of Canadian cities!

Nah, you've got them pretty much down.

Oh, JZ, that's a shame. But you should definitely SAY something--forget the abortion thing and the rest, the welfare crack is just Not On. I mean, however you want to be preaching that sermon, and regardless of whether the subject matter is appropriate, whatever...that crack is just not right, and he needs to be called out.

Crazy? Irresponsible? Just tired of work?

Probably. But does that mean you shouldn't do it? Will you get in trouble? Will people be put out by you doing it, have to cover your classes, learn less, etc? Or are students already done/subs paid for (going to earn money for it!)/they were watching videos anyway?

And the Pawz do help her with traction, although she doesn't need them every day. [link]

Hee! We do the just-rear-pawz too. Soooo cute.

Oh JZ, I'm so sorry. Grr.

I am not Catholic, and have no dog in this fight, but I can sort of work with abortion rhetoric because they say that it violates their beliefs. I disagree, but recognize the point as having some validity. The welfare thing, however, I cannot get behind, because social justice and caring for the less fortunate is a BASIC TENET of the religion. I think that you should definitely make a stink.

For a second there I was wondering at Leverage let Aldis play hockey and do escrima during shooting, but then I remembered CK.

Effing Oklahoma, indeed.

CK's hair was likely trimmed but mostly it was just blown dry and styled last night. Plus it was sunny and hot yesterday so he didn't get that humidity poof that some people suffer from. Mine was nicely unpoofed too.

I skipped the video shoot because a. have you met me? and b. there was a racetrack to be at and racing wins. But I went to the show which ended up being the end of the shoot. The tape was just because he played guitar all day.

Aldis Hodge continues to be the most polite dude ever. And, yes, smoking hot.
