I know most of you are not Canadian but a very great Canadian interviewer/ journalist/ radio host died yesterday. His name was Peter Gzowski, this man had interviewed 8 prime ministers, 9 if you count Thatcher, played hockey with #99, almost every premier in Canada for that last 20 years. His style brought all of these people into our homes as if we were talking to them ourselves. I don't expect you all to understand but this was quite traumatic to millions of Canadians. Sorry just had to vent.

Not to seem insensitive, but don't most people consider Maggie a Prime Minister (however much we'd like not to)?

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Well, 8 Canadian Prime Ministers. And a bonus one, that was hermaphroditic and mean and carried a handbag and made the trains stop running on time.
