Eric: ACDC
M: Name a big, famous Canadian band.
E: Errrr, Rush?
M: What about Nickelback?
E: ...
M: Name an Australian band that's famous and has ruinned music for the world, an equivalent to Nickelback
E: Wow... Cant think of any; Savage Garden?
M: What? Nah they're not THAT bad.
E: Natalie Imbruglia?
M: Nah, she's harmless. She's the equivalent of Nelly Furtado.
E: Yah, I guess.
M: What about Celine Dion?
E: What about her?
M: What's the Aussie equivalent?
E: Can't think of any.
M: Can we conclude that Canada has damaged music more than Australia?
E: (meditative pause) I'll have to do further research.

Have you ever been unable to slam the door shut? Who are these invisible hands that carefully ease the door’s rabid trajectory?
I absolutely detest not being able to shut a door violently. It’s not something I feel compelled to do regularly but when the moment asks for it it becomes a febrile imperative. Do not come in here. I say no to you.
When I was younger I used to do that a lot...

GOODBYE TO ALL THAT
…” I could not tell you when I began to understand that. All I know is that it was very bad when I was twenty-eight. Everything that was said to me I seemed to have heard before, and I could no longer listen. I could no longer sit in little bars near Grand Central and listen to someone complaining of his wife’s inability to cope with the help while he missed another train to...
