  1. @walterrobinson not to be a picky agnostic, but isn't burning any book abhorrent and wrong, regardless of its alleged sacred status?
  2. @dejrabel all i can come up with is "make cogent arguments that disprove its thesis.' which, admittedly, lacks a certain zing.
  3. @dejrabel true. now i'm trying to figure out how i *would* protest a book i found utterly objectionable.
  4. @andilinks @dejrabel not books, anyway. i can imagine a scenario where i might burn a flag or an effigy.not in my present career, mind you.
  5. @andilinks @dejrabel oh, again, i think anyone should be allowed to burn books, or flags, or effigies. but i wouldn't do it.
  6. A lateish night must read from @cselley: Do we want refugees or don’t we?: http://bit.ly/b0MiLT
  7. @ZerothOfTheLaw rob ford's grumbling during the last moments of the tvo mayoral candidates' debate.
  8. @robzandee if it's just you, you're allowed. but not if someone else makes a nice speech.
  9. so people from etobicoke are genetically unable to say anything nice about their opponents? is this true?
  10. also, if i were in charge, i would ban political candidates from wearing their own buttons. it's like drinking a toast to yourself.
  11. @onshi well, that's a plus, at least.
  12. @andilinks @dejrabel i dunno, i don't think there's anything that could make me burn a book.
  13. @kellygrant1 by the end, he was the only one who didn't remind me of a very minor supervillain.
  14. @nestruck for you, i would add a special ahhhrtsy theatrical twist!
  15. @paulvieira it actually will. you'll be all, oh, mayor larry and former mayor jim, they aren't really such bad gents.
  16. @dejrabel i would personally never ever burn a book. for one thing, it shows that it scares you.
  17. @paulvieira it ends like a particularly awkward last call.
  18. @dejrabel one can, i think, with serene consistency condemn the burning of any book, while supporting the right of anyone to do so.
  19. i could do my own really odd walking tour of ottawa.
  20. problem solved! RT @ChetScoville: I plan to make an airplane or a hat.
