		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s the weekend, so naturally I&#8217;m watching hours upon hours of basketball. It&#8217;s always interesting to analyze the advertisements that big US TV networks target toward the average college basketball viewer. 
Lots of ads for the marines, the navy, the reserves. I imagine they are pointed squarely at the thousands of kids who dedicated their [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I know when a holiday is coming on. I can tell from the sudden onslaught of staplegun blasts in the lobby. My landlady has exhumed her ancient cardboard decorations from whatever recess they live in for the rest of the year, and she&#8217;s banging them into the lobby walls one staple at a time.

		<description><![CDATA[When GrMa came back after doing his Ph.D. at the University of Toronto, we were walking down Main Street. We saw a new restaurant called Habit. The interior was minimalist, very slick with ironic hipster touches like block printed outlines of wildlife on the walls. &#8220;This place is very TO,&#8221; GrMa said. &#8220;A bit WIHO,&#8221; [...]]]></description>

Because it could be all gone by tomorrow.

OIV! is an expression coined by GrMa and I to describe Only In Vancouver wtf moments. This certainly qualifies. I was particularly impressed with the use of ketchup to replicate all the gory details of the crucifixion, right down the gash in [...]]]></description>

The vain buffoon has become a character-type central to the mockumentary genre. Think of Christopher Guest’s hapless theatre director in Waiting for Guffman, a genius known only to himself.
