"You can't change the world, but you can make a difference"--Edward Norton's self-contradictory motto in Death to Smoochy

Dreamed of the song "Bad Bhrama Bull," which we had on a record when I was little; the scene in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory where they floated up to the ceiling.

The others went off to Kingston for the weekend.

Finished the spading.  Glad I did it in the morning before it got really hot!

Went to the Eaton Centre and had dinner at Arby's.

Visited The Beguiling and bought a collector's comic book of Dick Tracy vs. Flat Top and one of Howard the Duck.

Saw Danny de Vito's kiddie-TV satire Death to Smoochy.  It's a black comedy, quite vulgar and tasteless.  Pretty uneven overall, but some of it was funny. (Robin Williams got to play nasty for a change.)
