A few more facts about Laura the vegan that I would like to share:
I'm not vegan because I'm squeamish. I am not weak and skinny, and if I'm pale it's because I'm naturally fair and not a fan of bright sunlight. Just because a bleeding steak spoils my appetite doesn't mean I'm bothered by blood. The fact that I care how humans and other animals live and die does not mean I'm afraid of death.
[stay tuned for the next installment...]
The science & technology page on cbc.ca has been featuring an awful lot about robots lately. Are they trying to accustom us to intelligent machines so we don't notice it when they start replacing us? Fusing with us? Becoming us?
As much as I like robots I would rather hang out with my cats. The irreplaceable. Dog companions are equally irreplaceable, including the sweet and lovely Umbria [the beauty reclining on the couch], whose time on this plane has come to an end. We will all miss you, Umbria, but your red-headed human roommate most of all, I expect.

KEEW on Coral FM, Architects giveaway & other announcements
This one's a three-parter:
1. The bitter sidekick and I are making a guest appearance on Coral FM this Friday, July 13th, 1-2pm ET on CKMS 100.3 FM (webcast at www.ckmsfm.ca). This time it's us being interviewed. Coral & Tom let us pick out the music and rant to our hearts' desires - well, until our hour was up, anyway. :p Expect to hear some Pitchshifter, some Skinny Puppy and some passionate indictments of industrial agriculture / factory farming.
2. Courtesy of Rebel Music & Distort Records we're holding an ARCHITECTS cd giveaway this weekend. Ruin is the band's newly released second album. Listen Saturday, July 14th to win. www.wearearchitects.co.uk.
[insert drum roll please...]
3. This weekend will be the second last edition of Kill Eat Exploit the Weak on CKMS. I recently celebrated my 12th anniversary at the station, but it's time to move on, and as of August 2007 the show goes on temporary but indefinite hiatus. Tune in for the not very grand finale on July 28th.
