ooh la la. Dude is hot! I'm not sure what it says about American culture that pop culture 'stars' are as loathesome as the people who just wanna bomb the bejesus out of anyone who doesn't think like them.

Slow down and smell the onions

By DAVID MACFARLANE
-- Since everyone seems to be writing about reading these days, I feel I should point out that I often read with swim goggles on. Not that I swim very much, although with the polar ice cap melting that could change. I wear swim goggles when I'm chopping onions. I do so because when I'm cooking I find it difficult to refill my wine glass with my eyes closed. Locating the stove can also be tricky. As a result, I can often be found in the kitchen, reading a cookbook through a pair of olive oil and butter smudged Speedos.  FULL STORY [The Globe and Mail: Arts]

THE AVALANCHE CONTINUES space
Our critics have listened to great music all year, and now they tackle some CDs that almost got away

-- When CDs replaced the long-playing record, music moved out from under the tree and into the sock -- a new stocking-stuffer born. It is quite an amazing thing, these little bundles of melodia, and while the packages got smaller, the noise got bigger, in numbers so prolific as to overwhelm the space we have to critique them.  FULL STORY [The Globe and Mail: Arts]

Includes reviews of 2 CDs I worked on.
