I've been busy adding a lot of great CD's to my collection ... have you heard of 'Sparkling Apple'? I was born a decade too late and in the wrong province and city ...

Elizabeth how about we do a NO Canuck/NO Murican music theme this Sunday night? That leaves lots of good to choose from. Trust me, Elizabeth, Vancouver can take the weekend off once in a blue moon. But I quibble.

And as a relative newbie to your work it's interesting to read a different style sample from back during your HuffPo gig, amirite? For the record, this Gypsy seems better at "second sight" than she is at "geopolitical economics" in that even if China held enough U.S. debt to trash the dollar they'd never cut their own throats this way. Trashing the dollar would not only trash the value of their U.S. debt -- not smart under the best of times -- but would also trash the world economy, which China's export-driven economy existentially depends on.
