This morning, Jack Layton, former leader of the NDP party, passed away after a fight with cancer. He was 61. I'm upset about it to say the least. Whatever one thought of Jack Layton personally, one could not argue that he was tenacious, intelligent and one of the few people who posed a serious threat to the Conservative Axis of Idiocy.
Can you tell I'm not a Conservative?
In any case, Mr. Layton, you will be sorely missed. My heart goes out to the family and friends who are mourning now, and also to Canada, for whom I am always concerned.
Right, that's enough of me being political. I usually reserve that for election time. I must get on with writing... if I don't get so depressed I can't move.
Wishing you all a better Monday than I'm having.

Combatif! Intellectuellement honnête! Tu nous laisses LA VOIE, LA VOIX et L'ESPOIR. Repose en PAIX !!!
We won't see his like for a long while, I'm afraid.
