@MikePMoffatt While I'm also a late 80s XTC fan, I have always been a huge fan of the Sarah McLachlan cover of this track. She seemed to amp up the frustration and anger in her voice as the song went on in a way that the song seems to demand.

@btshapir Now the Finance PhD Coordinator @ Laurier, the cold emails for admissions are common, with the tag to apply to me as a supervisor. It's the case in other disciplines, so I can't blame them much, but I do wish they'd read the website first, where it gives application instructions.

@justinsmithecon Need to re-register because some of the registrations may not have worked.

[Michael Brolley 🇺🇦 @mikerostructure]

@justinsmithecon We were trying to complete registration for the WSDSB after-school program yesterday through the OneList yesterday, and the page slowed to a crawl and crashed constantly for 4 hours. They then sent an email at 5pm apologizing for the disaster, and suggesting some folks might 1/2

@financeUTM @alz_zyd_ What a reference. Takes me back.

@justinsmithecon And it's for this reason that I'm buying a snowblower.

@JoelWWood Incidentally, you've inspired me to find my old iPod to retreive said list.

[Michael Brolley 🇺🇦 @mikerostructure]

@JoelWWood Had a playlist for this exact purpose when I used to skate regularly in UG. To skip the more obscure college radio picks, this classic was definitely on there:

Apparently, according to a handful of CPC MPs, PP is the bringer of darkness, hiding our bright and shining PM, but will only last about an hour. Also, do not look directly at PP, lest you suffer long-term vision damage. What a public service announcement this is.

🌘 Today is the day! Here are some safety tips for the solar #eclipse:

🚗 Avoid being on the road during the eclipse if possible. If you are driving, keep headlights on for increased visibility.
🚦Please do not stop on the road to view the eclipse. Find a safe location to park.

@JoelWWood @Brooks_Gate @colbycosh You have to be right, here. They did used to be called the devil rays didn't they?

@chris_m_neill @Andrew___Baker Child is 3 1/2, can confirm I have never been so well-rested. Now that she can communicate with words, that power is only ever used for good.

@justinsmithecon Memories. Once, as an early teen, my family went to a resort in Aruba during summer vacation. My brother and I almost got banned from the bar for the number of virgin strawberry daiquiris and pina coladas we requested in 4 day span. Probably couldn't stomach one today, though.

@ElliotLip You wouldn't expect it from the center of our national bureaucracy?

@ElliotLip If you're in Ottawa, apparently holding the doors can break the train pretty easily, so this would be accurate, there. (Waiting for the next train would be faster than waiting on the broken train to be fixed).

@tammyschirle What isn't an emergency meeting these days. Someone has to tell them that it's not DEFCON-1 every time the barista mispells your name on your morning latte at Starbucks.
