I forgot to say, I saw a clip of "Shipping News" the other day and OMG - yes! Who-ever said it - Cate Blanchett looks like TORI in that film! It was really freaky. She lifted up her hand and from the ring that she wore there issued a great light that illuminated her alone and left all else dark. She stood before Frodo seeming now tall beyond measurement, and beautiful beyond enduring, terrible and worshipful. Then she let her hand fall, and the light faded, and suddenly she laughed again, and lo! she was shrunken: a slender elf-woman, clad in simple white whose gentle voice was soft and sad.

The fact that a lot of the reasons it may be considered "evil" are documented in 'No Logo' does, however, make it appropriate to mention the book when you're not feeling inclined to write a three hundred page summary in every email to a person who inspires you to comment on the subject of multinationals. Consider it a favour to your email inbox that you only get the line, "Have a read of 'No Logo'!" instead! :P And hell, if you don't want to read 'No Logo', that's no concern of mine or anyone else who has suggested it. We'll consider it your loss (which is of course our opinion, to which yours will obviously differ), but if you have no problem with competition being annihilated, leaving Zac and a lot of other people without any alternative to paying extravagant prices for coffee they don't even like (let's face it, people all have different tastes; not everyone is going to want to buy from the same store, no matter how great a lot of other people might think they are), I for one have better things to do with my time than to try to convince you otherwise.

And now 'everyone' is saying another Kate (abeit stupid different spelling) is said to be just like Tori. Hmmmmmmmmm... methinks the circle has come around - to paraphrase a semi-ambiguous line from the chorus of a Ms. Minogue (not Dannii, the other one) tune of yesteryear, "Put Yourself In My Place".

Oh i had completely forgotten about that! yeah that was funny! >I've never heard Tori being played anywhere (except >for occasional spin on JJJ.. and Pro Widow remix being >played once when I went "out"). But then.. "I don't >get out much" ;) Actually one of the crappy commercial radio stations in sydney (not sure which one - i hear it occasionally when in someone else's car) possibly 2dayFM or something - has Pro Widow remix as the backing music for something like their "this road is at a standstill, there has been a tree fall across here and a massive accident on the corner of road x and z" traffic updates (couldn't think what they called them for a second there...) and it has been on as the backing music for a good couple of years - i'm actually gonna take a stabbing guess and say since 97...
