I just read your post on the online messages boards. You're offline, so I have to comment here, before I forget. I could send you an e-mail, but that'd be too easy.

"Slacktavist." Made me laugh.

The best typo ever also made me laugh: "The medium is the massage."

Damn, I wish McLuhan has said that. It sounds a lot more interesting.

On a sidenote, I'm eager to hear who you are pitching your article to. Also, what's the deal with Maclean's? (Jealously kicking in. . .now. But you deserve it all.)

actually, mcluhan did say that, the book's first printing had a typo on it, but mcluhan (in true mcluhan form) decided its hidden meaning was brilliant, which (i concede) is. ie: mass age, mess age. someone obviously wasn't paying attention in ENG080, haha. i injected the jocular version cause i felt my rip into him needed a little humour (at least for the sake of all the j-skool kiddies who still worship him).

I'm sure something great [rings true in yas heart, seen?] will come up for you. Remember last summer? How often does one get to do that. It'll work out in the end. In the mean time, slow down a bit if you're pushing yourself too hard. I'm interested in this article too, and I hope it gets seen. Good luck, and good night (good morning).

canice. you are awesome. i know you're going to be successful because you're doing what you love. that's pretty much when opportunities are going to come knocking at your door, which they have. I'm just glad you are realizing how cool this all is and are seizing these babies. keep updating once in a while, i like reading about how you're doing. (oh and get better soon)
