Mike Johnson is absolutely intolerable on these CBC Olympic hockey calls. The consummate unprofessional.

Day late, but feeds my endless John Cale obsession (along with author Bowie).

Iโm old enough to remember the overhype when this was released and โEvergreenโ was parked all over every inch of the radio. So, Iโm finally watching it right now.
Yikes. Iโve never before seen a film where my reaction is โOh, FFS!โ at the arrival of every new scene.

My all-time favourite, Alina Mรผller, scores the lone goal as Switzerland eliminates Finland in the Olympic quarterfinal.
Mรผller is just so damned great. Team-first, and plays the game the right way.

Solved a problem by watching this Switzerland/Finland womenโs quarterfinal on the CBC Inuktitut feed.

Got home from work at about 0030 and should go to bed, but then a favourite film starring the great Kati Outinen came on the Criterion Channel stream.
Iโll sleep afterward.

By god, the DUP are nothing but desperate and dirty colonial vestiges โ not that they were ever much more than that โ grasping at any blunt instrument they can find now that the writing is on the wall.
This is lovely. Connolly schools Campbell so skillfully that the old Orange bastard has no idea.
I will not entertain commentary on this, which is itself entirely on the nose.
