Tony's Tirade

One of the things I love about my friend Tony is his complete lack of inhibitions. Back in the early 90s Tony seemed to be riding a constant sugar rush - and no wonder, since I witnessed him dumping six or seven packets of sugar into his iced tea on more than one occasion. I'm not sure what he's doing in this picture, but if I had to guess he's probably mocking Hitler, who certainly deserves eternal derision. Of course, once again I'm missing all the action by reading when I should be paying attention to my surroundings.

These days, Tony is an important contributor to The Paltry Sapien. Check it out - he's always finding important and interesting material, typically much more topical than this meandering blog.

No Mere Paltry Sapien

My old friend Tony Longworth (pictured above falling down a flight of stairs in the University of Alberta's Student Union Building) has started a fascinating new blog called The Paltry Sapien. It's quite eclectic and well-designed, with some pretty big-name contributors. Check it out!
