Like I am going to blog bullet points on Christmas Day and New Year's Day. World Literacy Day? Elvis's Birthday? Well, on that day I am sure I can make the time. What is it, the 8th today? Which means Monday is in double digits which makes it almost mid-month. Before you know it we'll be in spring and back to a representative democracy.

• Seems thre is a new spin on the prorogue with Tory MPs explaining it was required so they could do "constituency work." I love the note of abuse in the message - "Anyone critical of the proroguing of government doesn't understand the work that members of Parliament do in their ridings, says Sarnia-Lambton Conservative MP Pat Davidson." Anyone. You who think it is wrong? You don't understand. When these guys fall, it is going to be hard.
• By all that is holy, this should be mine... or at least my town's.
• So, will Conan be on at ten after the Olympics? Surely haveing Leno on for 30 minutes is more stupider. Why not 20? Give him 20 minutes and Conan 43. That'll work.
• Go. Go!!! See if you can know everything, smarty pants. Soon we will all live in the panopticon.
• Surely, Andre Dawson enters as an Expo. You cancel their World Series. You trade the star players. You take away the team. Surely, he can go to Cooperstown in an Expos jersey.
• Beer blogging meeting personal confession.
• I love that people are blaming the ads encouraging people to shout "eh-oh-Canada-go" for the World Junior hockey loss Canada suffered earlier this week. There is an abusive Facebook page about it. But there is one about you, too. What a stupid idea. We have "go-Canada-go" and "CAN-NAD-DA!!" chants which are great chants. Rhythmic. Punchy. Nothing makes for a great chant like starting with a soft vowel sound.
