Ad for cellphones: "Get SPARK!" (And Neese-chan, and Parn, and Deedlit, etc. etc.)

In the TV ad, the woman asks her hapless husband, "If you couldn't be with me, which of my friends would you be with?" There just is no good answer to this one. She's gonna get angry whatever response you give, possibly except if you said, "I'd be alone, because nobody compares to you!"

On Thursday night, I head home on a slightly different route, taking the King Street streetcar across to the subway, as I'd been unable to drop by the Comic Emporium on Wednesday. I first notice an 18-wheeler flatbed full of crowd-control barriers, which mystify me. Then we pass by the Princess of Wales Theatre, and there is The Answer. It's the opening night of the Lord of the Rings musical. Searchlights, press, the Beautiful People dressed in Beautiful Outfits, it is quite the spectacle. And good luck to anyone trying to travel west on King Street past that point, as that side of the road was blocked off.

What, Sumomo?

"Wanna talk."

I wish that regularly, whenever you "nyau" at me like you want something.

"That means 'Feed me'. Wanna talk."
[Sigh] OK... [but no good can come of this...]

"There's this new play on here in Toronto. It's about a member of the nobility."
[Nobility???]

"Yes, he undergoes this religious conversion."
[Oh?]

"And joins the Order of St. Wendy's."
[Er...]

"Where he becomes a friar."
[O.o]

"He becomes known as the Lord of the Onion Rings."
[*Headdesk*]

Y'know, Sumomo, Guinnessmon is going to have something to say about that.
"But you said he was really excited about the book being turned into a play?"
Excited is close, but not quite the right word. Here, Sumomo, chase a cat toy!!
