Tea & Two Slices: On Broken Windows & Ancient Occupations

Century-old Vancouver bar sees new life as ‘community pub’. I think it’s great what they are doing at the Met, but that doesn’t really excuse renaming The Modern as The Post-Modern does it? I mean, those charities are great, but Pop Opera? Republic? Bar None? Smileys? Barf. Literally.

The Occupation of the Carnegie Remembered. Wow, I had no idea. Probably because we care even less about workers now than we did then. 6 dollars an hour? Still? It’s 2010. What do you think the chances are we could pull something like this off again? Yeah, didn’t think so.

Furlong calls Olympic-motivated firebombing in Ottawa ‘undeserved’. I wonder in what situation it would be deserved? Surely nothing VANOC did would ever warrant the senseless hate-crime of breaking a wee RBC window.

Banksy Wasn’t Here. But Jerm was.
