I hate Noam Chomsky. (Courtesy of Meryl) Been reading some John Ralston Saul. Profound thoughts on Canada and its weltanschaunng. "All of us, it can't be denied, are victimized from time to time. But this is quite different from believing ourselves to be victims all the time." From "Reflections of a Siamese Twin: Canada at the End of the Twentieth Century." He particularly looks at the whole "two founding peoples" ethos...and throws it in the garbage can, where it pretty much belongs. Just a thought on what I'm reading these days. Another nice sunday..perhaps I should hit the roads again. Too bad I don't have a digital camera anymore, or I'd cap some nice photos for the blog. Maybe next month.... |
