Thank you for not showing smoking

First of all, last week's work.

Check for my double-ender (TV talk for when there are two people on TV talking in different locations) about the Ed Horne trial in Iqaluit. It includes me telling the story of talking with the multiply convicted sex offender on the stairs of the courthouse.

To make a long story short, he asked us not to use the footage of him smoking a cigarette, as it would be a bad influence on his children... the irony is thick enough to use as wallpaper paste.

Off to Cape Dorset, for the Dog Slaughter commission. We always ask for more travel, but when it comes, it is a pain in the ass. I'm packed and ready, and could finish Moby Dick if we get storm stayed, or weathered in as they say in these parts.
