Irreverent, contrarian, delighted to be out of synch with the zeitgeist, I depend on my sense of humour (such as it is) to keep me sane in this wacky world.

Waiting for the other Sock to drop: I must admit I had prior knowledge that a certain Sock was thinking of putting the screws to Ezra Levant (suing Levant--now there's an original concept). But being a paragon of discretion, I managed to keep it on the q.t. while waiting for Ezra to break the news himself. Now he has--here.

What does this piece of...hosiery have to gain by pursuing such a suit? That's a question that only he, and perhaps his lawyer, can answer. Part of it, I think, is that he enjoyed his time in the spotlight during his contretemps with Mark Steyn, and this is a bid to reclaim it. Also--maybe he's looking to boost his profile in the run up to a possible poltitical career. Elmo's Sock: NDP MP. Elmo's Sock: Minister of Immigration and Multiculturalism. And maybe someday, Elmo's Sock: Order of Canada.

Definitely not outside the realm of possiblity in this, the best of all possible Trudeaupias.
