All this Ozymandias discourse today is putting me in mind of my favourite ever Onion op-ed and the killer line...

"They should call Omar Khayyam “Ozymandias Khayyam,” because when I look on his works, I despair!"

Philip Larkin’s this be the verse mangled into Ozymandias, the text reads

They Oz you up, your mandyias.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They give you vast and trunkless legs
A sunken shattered visage too.
But they were Ozzed up in their turn
By Mandyias upon the sand
Who half the time had wrinkled lips And half in sneering cold command.
Oz hands on mandyias to man.
Like mighty works atop a shelf Look on them early as you can
Ye mighty and despair yourself

Innings 10-14: inbetween shifts watching on my buddy's phone on the bench
Inning 15: On the bluetooth speaker in the changing room
Inning 16: On the radio in my car driving home
Innings 17-18: Streaming (largely unsuccesfully) on my TV at home

To say this country is all in is a gross understament!

Tuesday night's epic #worldseries game and how I experienced it:

Innings 1-5: Streaming on my TV at home
Innings 6-7: On the radio in my car driving to play hockey
Innings 8-9: On the bluetooth speaker in the changing room

Further study reveals that “Toronto Blue Jays” is an anagram for “joyous talent, bro.”

“Los Angeles Dodgers” is an anagram for “draggled looseness.”

Do with this information what you will.

This right here, people. It's vile. It's wrong. And it's brought to you by the UCP.

Any government that would ignore the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the Alberta Bill of Rights, and the Alberta Human Rights Act does not have your best interest at heart.
