Hey guys! Lately I've been working on maintaining the old chevette out front. I spent a while changing signal lights and such when it occurred to me how rusted parts of the car were. Today I went to Canadian Tire and the help guy gave me some default help suggestions - the kind that sounds good at first, but gradually begins to sound like an idea that would go to hell later. But! While we were talking a retired autobody guy overheard our plight and gave some sound advice! What are the chances that you go and seek help from a Canadian Tire guy, and someone else comes and one ups him? The force is with me.

Michael Moore's critics strike back
Last Updated Fri, 21 May 2004 15:55:19 EDT
CANNES - Not everyone in France is in love with Michael Moore.
The controversial documentary filmmaker has been the darling of the Cannes Film Festival so far, but there are those who aren't enamoured with his latest film, Fahrenheit 9/11.
Jean-Luc Godard, the legendary French director who helped to launch the New Wave movement in the 1960s, had harsh words for Moore this week. Godard's latest film, Notre Musique, premiered on Monday, the same day as Fahrenheit 9/11. Later in the week, Godard lashed out at Moore at a press conference, calling him "halfway intelligent."
Godard, who hadn't seen Fahrenheit 9/11, compared it unfavourably to the work of American documentarian Frederick Wiseman. "It's like two different worlds," Godard said.
Moore's film criticizes U.S. President George W. Bush's handling of the Sept. 11 attacks, and also highlights the links between Bush's family and the family of Osama bin Laden. But Godard said Moore's film was an ineffectual piece of work.
"He's not even hurting Bush," Godard said. "He's helping him in an underground way. Bush is either less stupid than he looks or so stupid you can't change him."

I thought this photo from the current issue of Time Magazine (gotta love doctors' waiting rooms. Plenty of time to catch up on the reading.) Something about the (mostly) old white men deciding the future of the nation in an old palace. Brilliant.
