Shut Up & Write

You love it. You loathe it.
Either way, you can't help yourself. You are one of us.
(You are also a masochist. But that's OK.)

Struggling (and more often fighting) writer by trade, and office monkey when I need to pay my bills. It's an enviable life.
I know, you're probably a little jealous now.
It's perfectly understandable.

An early start to the campaign

The very day that Olivia Chow has ditched her position as a municipal candidiate and decided to try and run for a federal seat in the upcoming election, I received my annual Christmas card from the NDP party.

From both Chow herself, her husband and NDP leader Jack Layton, and two others.

Did they send this on purpose? Did they arrange something with Canada Post to try and get the seasons-greetings card sent on the same day?

Timing, my friends. Timing.

Meanwhile, I would like to offer my vote for sale -- to the Liberal party. (Sorry, Harper. I just don't like you, your West Is Best And Fuck Ontario philosophy, or your scary-assed right-wing stance. And there's something about your eyes that makes my guts curdle.)

The Liberals may need it. All they have to do is "take care" of my student loans. A small price indeed.

About $30,000 should do it. (I will accept a much higher payment in the event of a bidding war.)
