And yet without sentimentality. O'Hara and the people of O'Haraland tell their insane stories blank-faced, fully expecting to be taken seriously. Not sure if the guy with the vestigial tail was in these Christopher Guest movies but you just know he didn't use the word "stigma."

What did Tony Blair see in Mandelson? Remember the dodgy loan for a house fashionably located? I recall being shocked that Labour politicians would be so motivated by status anxiety but it may have been an aspect of New Labour that went unremarked initially. Well, by me.

Isn't Steve Tisch's cousin the new NYPD police commissioner? So he should be fine.

Socially awkward newspaper editors make news decisions out of Aspergerish responses, not energy, drive, or an understanding of what interests Canadian readers on a Saturday morning. I want O'Hara comedy clips nonstop, I want love, recipes for "folding" batter, I want pure Canada today.
