Ex cathedra
An evening talk radio host fustigated last Wednesday:
Quebec has taken ownership of it!The "it" in question being the headwaters of the so-called "five rivers" which flow south out of Labrador into Quebec.
It was just one outburst on one night in an entire week of fustigation, fulmination, froth and lather about the supposed incursion of Quebec onto Labrador soil.
Never mind that the incursion only existed in the imaginations of people who can't read maps and have forgotten their history.
Which was — though not quite in those words — what the Premier said on Monday after he descended from the mountain.
Thus ended the fustigation, fulmination, froth and lather, at least on evening talk radio.
At least on that issue.
At least for now.

Night Line has returned to its roots.
The show used to be an hysterically funny mix of oddball callers with all sorts of bizarre ideas about aliens, crystals and sasquatch and the host who at times eemed to be in an latered state of consciousness.
Now you get all that without the sense that the host - at least - is not on some substance or other with hallucineogenic properties.
He's just prepared to say anything that pops into his head and go along with any proposition he would recognise as being nonsense if he didn't spend all his time leaping to unsupported conclusions.
On another level, Night Line is now like Spindy Lite. All the same stuff that was hysterically funny to pay two bucks for, now available each night for free.
"We know what we're fighting for"
La la la.
Etc.
repeat ad nauseum
Surprised you willingly linked to that out-of-context posting.
Most people bury their mistakes.
You ever watch Trainspotting?
Remember the gruesome scene in which we find out who the baby's father is?
I'm thinking about that scene right now for some reason.
If that's a reference to authorship, you're wrong again.
My bad. What do you mean, "again"?
