Went shopping.
Picked up Barry King's latest parcel of comic strips that I'd bought on Ebay. (It was so big that I had to go get it at the post office near St. Clair & Bathurst!) It included over 20 issues of the reprint series Vintage Funnies.
Dinner was pizza.
Went to the Cinematheque and saw The Island, a famous wordless 1960 quasi-documentary about a Japanese family living on a small island where they grow crops that depend on their carrying over irrigation water from the mainland. It's one of those few movies that can make you look at everyday things differently. (It was made at a time when the old peasant ways were disappearing in japan.)
