Just a quick update for my family, friends and colleagues about what I’ve been up to professionally. I know, I run too many blogs. Well, if you’d just start using Google Reader, you could keep up-to-date instantly. That’s assuming you care.

You do care, right? Here goes:

• Time For Writers To Take A Stand
• Someone Needs To Fire Their Media Liaison
• How To Write A Bio For Your Website

By the way, my website copywriting company also just got accredited with the Better Business Bureau of the Lower Mainland. Take that, San Fransisco!

Bored on a Saturday night? There’s always YouTube.

Throw out your first answer, give your head a shake and read this insightful piece in The Propagandist from a refugee from Arab lands:

My thoughts turn to those savage days when my family fled Libya in 1967. We narrowly escaped death at the hands of a bus driver who, instead of taking us to the airport, tried to burn us alive inside the bus.

I am one of nearly one million Jews indigenous to the Middle East and North Africa who were forced to flee their ancestral homes in the last 60 years. I am now the voice of an Arab minority culture that has been ethnically cleansed…

You’ve got to be kidding. First, just about every hard-boiled secular (or at least non-Christian) political opponent of Prime Minister Stephen Harper has already implied he’s some kind of nefarious theocrat with a hidden evangelical agenda that’s sort of modeled on Iran’s Islamic Republic.

But what’s the latest criticism of Steve-O? The PM is ignoring the will of God by making the census voluntary.

Our government is wrong-headed in its policy direction because it refuses to be influenced by cherry-picked verses from the Old Testament? What?

You can’t make this stuff up. Thanks, Globe and Mail.
