11:58 AM View: Thursday Lunch


 Oh yeah!  I may have mentioned that I am reading the Mark Carney book Values.  And I find it as dull as the Global Perspectives Scheme of Work.  Carney’s book is chalked full of left wing jargon.  One word I came across was “Robust.”  I was reminded of Trudeau talking of a “robust” Liberal leadership race.  I then checked to see how many times the word “robust” appeared in Carney’s book. A search came back with 26 instances.  I then checked to see if James Joyce ever used the word in Finnegan’s Wake.  A search reveled never.

Any who.  I fine the frequent use of that R word rather curious.
