$2.9 million USD at auction but for you guys...let's just call it even. Just punt the cheese when the mood strikes you now and again maybe.
Canada's Favorite Blog
Almost Famous
Articles
- Articles for the sister station, A Good Beer Blog.
- Pick any day's tunes as heard on CBC Ottawa's All in a Day hosted by my personal emailing buddy, Brent Bambury. You won't find a better music selection on radio anywhere - certainly not on the deeply dowdy CBC.
- Another plume catches my eye.
- Stuff less serious than Stuff.
- From Jan to March 2006, I tried a group humour blog with others on the subject of Canadian politics. It did not last but the posts were worth keeping. #16 was banned. There were no comments. It was at www.shadowcabinet.ca.
- Some writings and other junk of little real interest unless you like law or are a Crow.
A display of hideous graphics focused on the goal of figuring out where the smokestack I can see to the south is sitting.

I wonder what the GenX@40 Archives will go for some day.

Cents upon cents.

The article says it was an anonymous buyer, but I'm betting it was Lord Tubby of Fleet. Is he still a Lord now, I wonder?

That would require him having funds with which to buy such things. Unlikely these days.

Hey, I'm not sure he really had funds before either. Isn't that what he's in trouble for: using *other people's funds*?

The nice US prosecutors have stopped him from doing that too.

Oh sure, I know. THat was just a little light banter. What a strange fellow though, eh? Did you read about the FDR purchase? What an odd move for an Ayn Randist...

Isn't "an odd move for an Ayn Randist" an oxymoron?
Marian - February 16, 2006 3:14 PM
It might be, but I think it would be an odd move for an Ayn Randist to start supporting public health care, for instance. It would also be odd if the Tubster started hanging out with, say, Buzz Hargrove. So going around saying that you think FDR was a good guy is a little odd. Ayn Randism is a non-system system. There are rules, they're just not smelly proletarian rules.
