From Amazing Grace: "I once was lost, but now I'm found. Was blind, but now I see."
Try that out the next time you hear someone tell you that that secular Frenchman John Kerry flip-flops.

Oy. Anyone up for Margaret Thatcher's Greatest Hits? It's only available via the web. The shop which sells it has closed its only brick-and-mortar location; according to its owner, as heard on CBC's As It Happens, the congestion charge in London (5 pounds a day to drive into the city) has reduced traffic but also significantly eaten into his walk-in trade. Gosh, I wonder how many other small specialty shops have closed for the same reason? I'd hate that; I loved walking around London the two times I've been there.
