secular Canada, I’ve never in my life seen a “WWJD?” slogan anywhere. I did, however, notice that PETA’s new campaign for Easter is a take-off on that (silly, to me) idea – What Wouldn’t Jesus Do. Their answer? Butcher and eat meat.

mundane story from the world of hockey today, but one of the reports at Yahoo looks like a gag that slipped through. In case it’s gone, I took a screen shot.

Ed reports

February 27, 2001 by Michael Boyle

Ed reports (at YULblog) on Les symponies portuaires, literally, “Port Symphonies.” I went a couple of years ago and it’s pretty cool – they take all the boats in the Old Port of Montreal – and anything else that will make big sounds – and develop an original score that they play together. The whole piece is played by ship’s horns, train whistles (on the tracks just up from the water’s edge), and the bells of Notre Dame Basilica, among other things. Be warned though – it’s not classical music or pop or anything – it’s most similar to electroacoustic music, so you should have a taste for the avant-garde if you want to go and listen.There’s more information at the Pointe-a-Calliere Museum’s website, including a clip from last year’s event.
